Long time readers of this blog know that over the time I have tried to pay attention to some of the cool stuff that came up mostly in the technology space from worldwide. Now it's time to mention some cool Romanian things which, though copycats rather than blow minding new web apps, have their own merits. Even more importantly, I believe, is that they may represent the actual basis or platforms for going to cool, new or innovative directions, thus I will keep a close eye on them.

First one is a del.icio.us type of web-based link manager -- the author, Ursu, calls it bookmark online manager and can be found at fubar.ro. Ursu also keeps a blog not so frequent updated over at Note scrise la betie.

The second one is a Google News type of service for Romanian news only (Google doesn't offer Romanian news anyways :P) and is even cooler than Google's since it offers RSS feeds. The name of the service is MogNews and its author is Mihai Turcu, who recently started his own blog.

Good job guys, now let's see what's next. :) 

UPDATE: I forgot to mention the one that I find to be the coolest actually, though I guess most of the people interested in the Romanian blogging space know it already. I am talking about the RSS Mioritics which is a Romanian RSS feeds repository with the reading option. If you know of any other cool stuff made by Romanians please do let me know. Thanks.
