Like many of you, I love discovering new websites and exploring the vast ocean we call Internet. At times, while researching a topic, I tend to run into some unique websites completely by accident. Because of this, my bookmarking folder is a mess.
Finding cool websites is kind of like finding candy and then trying to hold on to that candy by bookmarking it for future use. Since I’ve accumulated a great quantity of awesome websites, I decided to do a short post about them.
My hope is that you’ll find these websites useful and maybe even share it with your friends. Before you scroll down I must let you know that they’re not really on the educational side of the spectrum. The sites are mostly fun or useful for very specific problems. Enjoy!
