Software Links |
Free
things are dandy. Free cars, free houses, a duffle bag full
of gold bullion. But those are kind of hard to get, but free
software isn't. Here are links to "gobs" of software that's
there just for the clicking |

I Write Like |
Attempts to tell you which popular author is a match to your writing style. I dunno ... I put in some chapters of a book I'm working on and it says it's like "Stephen King." I don't see it. But it's fun. |
Readability-Score |
A nice writing readability test program. Enter a sample of any document and it tells you the "readability score." It runs a sample of your writing through various analysis tools (e.g., Flesch/Flesch-Kincaid, Gunning Fog Index, etc.) to determine how "readable" your writing is. Interesting as all heck. |
Edit Central |
Another writing test. (I prefer "Readability-Score" above test because it has links to what the individual scores mean, more-or-less. Be aware that this and the above links don't really "analyize" your WRITING, they simply calculate how complex the WORDS are in the text. More sylables, more "complex.") |
Google
Earth |
If
you don't try any other link on this page, try THIS one.
Google is on a roll, and here's an example: See any satellite
pictures on the earth. See where you grew up, where you live,
peer at Iraq or Moscow. (Requires a download, but worth it) |
