Interesting Sites

Welcome to Interesting Sites, a blog where I share some of the most useful, fun and creative websites that I come across on the internet. In this post, I will introduce you to five sites that offer different features and functionalities that you might find interesting or helpful. 

Let's get started!

1. Whatruns: Have you ever wondered how a website is built? What technologies, frameworks, plugins or fonts are used to create it? With Whatruns, you can find out in seconds. Whatruns is a browser extension that detects and displays the technologies used on any website. You can use it to learn from other sites, discover new tools, or just satisfy your curiosity. You can also follow websites and get notified when they add or remove technologies.

2. Coverr: If you are looking for high-quality and royalty-free photos for your projects, Coverr is a great resource. Coverr offers thousands of beautiful photos that you can download and use for free, no attribution required. You can browse by categories, search by keywords, or explore collections curated by themes. You can also preview how the photos look on different devices and platforms.

3. Flourish: Data visualization is a powerful way to communicate information and insights. But creating engaging and interactive charts and graphs can be challenging and time-consuming. Flourish is a platform that makes it easy and fun to create stunning data visualizations. You can choose from hundreds of templates, upload your data, customize the appearance and behavior, and publish or export your visualization in minutes. You can also collaborate with others and embed your visualization on any website.

4. Untools: Thinking is one of the most important skills that we have, but it is not always easy to do it well. Sometimes we need some guidance or structure to help us think more clearly, creatively or critically. Untools is a collection of thinking tools that can help you with various aspects of thinking, such as problem-solving, decision-making, learning, brainstorming, etc. You can find tools like the Six Thinking Hats, the Eisenhower Matrix, the Feynman Technique, and many more.

5. Lumen5: Video is one of the most popular and effective forms of content, but it is also one of the most difficult and expensive to produce. Lumen5 is a tool that uses artificial intelligence to create videos from text in minutes. You just need to enter some words, such as a blog post, an article, or a script, and Lumen5 will generate a video with relevant images, videos, music and animations. You can then edit and customize the video to your liking and share it on social media or your website.
