Baby Name Wizard


I came across an interesting site called the Baby Name Wizard. Like other similar sites, one can find the background and meaning of various names. What makes this site unusual is that one can check the popularity of a name by year and geographically by state.
I found it notable that such once popular names as Agnes, Mary and Arthur have plummeted in popularity, while such names as Logan and Olivia have boomed.

There's Still Life in This Old Blog


I came across Picnik while doing a wiki project on the fly. Picnik allows one to edit pictures for free. I especially like its rotate function. The whole site is easy to use. I recommend it.
