Compatible with all operating systems, you can create an interactive and visual timeline with Dipity and populate it with your photos. You will need to create an account to get started, but the basic version remains free.

a new search engine where you use slash tags to limit your search using slash tags - you can also choose how you want to see your results - videos, maps etc . And a great way to stop spam in your searches.

NASA's SkyView is the Internet's virtual telescope, and "generat[es] images of any part of the sky at wavelengths in all regimes from Radio to Gamma-Ray." Those individuals without much of an astronomy background need not fear, as NASA's got it covered with their "Non-Astronomers Page".

We have all been in the situation where we have half-finished work due tomorrow. You can upload a unfinished word document and this tool will modify it so that it cannot be opened. You can send the corrupted file instead to buy yourself some extra time.
