Random Sites

43 Places -- this is a blog-type community that makes the world a smaller place. It allows users to share the places they live in with the world. It also allows travellers to share their experiences of different places they've visited. The community it creates, allows people who wish to visit places, to ask questions of those who live there, or have traveled there. An interesting concept. If you have a blog, 43 Places will also help you get your posts at 43 Places to automagically update your own blog.

DONTCLICK.IT -- this is an experiment in interface design ... I think. The interface of this website can be navigated by moving the mouse around, no clicking required. If however, you can't break from the clicking habit, they suggest the mousewrap -- a painful way of getting you off the habit.

Yotophoto -- this is a photo search engine that targets free-to-use stock photos and images. You search for an image, read the license terms, and then use the photo in your project.

Portable Freeware -- here's a site that's a hacker's dream. It takes you back to the good ole days, when coders coded code -- code that was easy, easy to use. The site catalogues freeware applications that can be downloaded, extracted into a directory, and run -- without installation. This allows you to load up portable storage media with these apps and walk around with your own geek bag of tricks. Neato!

Copyscape -- another interesting search engine. Enter a URL of a specific page on your site, and Copyscape searches the web to see if you've been plagiarized.

the Wonderful World of Longmire -- just a whole lot of silliness!
