Link Round Up: February 29

29 Feb 2008  Links

  • AOL’s Xdrive online storage service allows users to store up to 5GB of data for free. Users can also install Xdrive as a virtual hard drive for Windows to make it easy to transfer files or perform automated backups.
  • CameraSummary extracts the EXIF data from the images. Using it, users can determine what model of digicam was used to take the photo and when it was taken, what resolution settings were used, etc.
  • Condiment Packet Gallery is a large collection of tiny photos of resteraunt condiment packets. It’s completely frivolous, but oddly engrossing.
  • Eight comic books to read before you die is an interesting list compiled by the San Francisco Chronicle. I was a little bit proud to find that I had read them all already.
  • HubbleSite a website devoted to the wide array of the beautiful photos taken by the Hubble Space Telescope. The photos are available as normal pictures, wallpapers, and a variety of purchasable prints and merchandise.
  • OhDon’tForget is the great service for the forgetful. It allows users to schedule text message reminders to be sent to any phone.
  • PhoneSpell is a site that shows you all the combinations of words that any given phone number spells.
  • Seven Addictive Scifi Comic Books Free Online is a list compiled by io9 that actually only includes six comics and a preview issue by my count, but is still worth a look, if like me, you’re a comic addict hard up for cash.
  • Vozme is browser based tool that converts any text into an MP3 audio file that you can download. Great for creating ransom messages after you kidnap your neighbor’s dog.
  • WordPress as a Contact Manager is an intriguing tutorial on how to use Wordpress as a highly effective, surprisingly flexible tool for organizing data.
