Creator of socialcooling.com here. You may enjoy this other website I created:

It's a fictitious company that helps you do exactly this. And while it's fiction, the tool actually does work.

What do you mean, "It's a fictitious company"? Is this not a legitmate service of yours? I get that the service, if real, produces fictitious content but your wording is throwing me off.

Indeed, it's not a real service. It just pretends to be. You can just use the tool for free.

Although as time passes, it seems maybe it should be real...

So can you actually use it or not? If you can use it, then I would say it is a real service in any sense of "real service" I can think of.

Alright, in that case it's a real service ;-)

Honestly, this had even more impact on me than the social cooling site. Very nicely done.
