Overstream is a service that lets you take videos from YouTube, Google Video, MySpace Video, and DailyMotion and add captions or subtitles to them. All you need is the video URL and then you can start adding captions and share your completed video with the Overstream community. Other users can rate your videos and leave comments – but you can keep them private if you want. You can also create a link to your video, email it to friends, and embed it on your blog or website. Here’s my screencast tour of Overstream:

AOL has finally decided to pull MapQuest out of the Web 1.0 closet and pretty it up with some much needed new features.  Now, with MapQuest Beta, users can enter in an address into a one-line search box instead of 4 different boxes.  You can save your searches and set default home and work addresses.  There is also a map on the MapQuest Beta homepage.  You can create multiple destination directions and re-order them as needed.  There is also a choice of printing a map with text and a map or just plain old text.  If you’re not quite ready for a change, (some people are so fussy!) MapQuest non-Beta is still available.  Here’s my screencast tour of MapQuest Beta:
