Google Font Directory

Less than a month after Google Analytics Application Gallery, Google strikes again! That time, it was about various apps for Google Analytics, now it’s all about fonts, since the name says it all – Google Font Directory.

Another Beta product from the Internet search giant, Google Font Directory allows you to browse all the fonts from the tiny collection already available via the Google Font API. Just as it happened with the Application Gallery I mentioned earlier, there’s not much to [...]

Barcode Label Printer

Some say that products having any kind of barcode on them are marked with the so-called “number of the beast,” but I think they are more than paranoid. After all, no matter what number you take, after applying some math, you’ll surely end up facing the notorious “666,” if that’s what you are really looking for. Anyway, if we leave conspiracy theories aside, barcodes can be used successfully in various designs for Web or print, but if you don’t want [...]

Domainr

While the domain name won’t really make the difference between success and failure, it’s surely better to have a site accessed via vegetabl.es instead of isellfreshvegetables.com, don’t you think? Sure, that was just an example, since I don’t think anyone bothered to touch the fresh vegetables online sales niche… although vegetabl.es seems to have been purchased already by someone, parked, and now is for sale. Too bad, but I am sure you can still find a bunch of interesting domain [...]

Big Browser

One of the things I really love about Maxthon is the ability to load two sides side by side. You don’t have to be a developer to use this, since content editors and even “normal” Internet users can find themselves pretty often in situations requiring side by side browsing. While having two sites loaded next to each other may be good, what about four of them?

Big Browser is exactly the tool to use to achieve the goal described above, and [...]

colrful

I usually enjoy writing about apps/resources that I can try by myself, but this time, something’s wrong here – I just found a very interesting tool, but it doesn’t seem to work. Since I think something may be wrong with my ISP, I hope you’ll be able to play with colrful, because this is something some people will really enjoy, and I don’t want to keep it aside simply because I bump into some kind of error…

If you want, you [...]

Lessn

These days, it seems everyone’s into releasing free scripts to the public, and I can’t say this is bad. In fact, I think it’s great, even if we’re talking about a URL shortener that comes “as is” and was written using PHP, MySQL, as well as some mod_rewrite tricks…

… namely Lessn, a script that can be installed in just a few moments, since all the instructions come in a very clear (and rather short) readme file. With a little bit [...]

VidoopCAPTCHA

I hate CAPTCHA on sites that I use frequently, especially since most of them use only letters, and sometimes I don’t understand the text displayed. If everyone would be nice and switch their text CAPTCHA pages to ones using images, that would really be awesome, at least to me. Well, they can use VidoopCAPTCHA, so there’s no excuse for not doing it… since I know a lot of people like me who would be grateful!

To make a short story [...]

BgPatterns

I really like to start every new week by discovering something cool, and today I had a big revelation. What kind of revelation? Well, first of all, some time has passed since we talked about any kind of online background generator… and second, I really don’t know how did I manage to miss BgPatterns for so long!

BgPatterns obviously comes from “background patterns,” but I really like this site a lot, because it offers more than just some patterns to save [...]

AnythingSlider

To be honest, I love image gallery scripts, but when I want to watch various images on the Web, I like keeping things as simple as possible. When I say “as simple as possible,” that means image transitions and Flash- or Java-based image galleries are a no-go, but…

… it all becomes pretty interesting when we look at AnythingSlider, a jQuery plugin created to display not only images, but any kind of HTML content. Before I tell you a few words [...]

Tweetable

For some, Twitter is like Eden, while others consider it a plague. To be honest, I think that the Twitter plague is closer to the truth than the other version, but since everyone seems to be so crazy about it, a little jQuery Twitter plugin won’t hurt at all, I am sure of that.

While there’s also a WordPress plugin with the same name (take a look at it here), the Tweetable piece of code I have here today is only [...]
