Wookieepedia, myIPneighbors, and Texter

More semi-random link goodness for today.

Wookieepedia is an impressive Wiki for all things Star Wars. First of all, you can’t beat that name. Wookieepedia has got to be one of the Top 10 web site names in my book. Second, the Wookieepedia is great for catching up on all your Star Wars lore. I’ve fallen way behind on the books (and will not catch up anytime soon), but in just a few minutes browsing I found out that one character from the Marvel Comics Star Wars run is returning. Lumiya was one of the first evil Jedi created after Darth Vader and has quite a good history in the comic series. Definitely makes me want to read the new Legacy of the Force series.

myIPneighbors.com is a fascinating site if you have a website. You can enter your IP or domain name and see what other sites are sharing your server. Since my host is European, nothing really cool popped up. That also means that my site (and the few others a friend and I host on that server) get most of server resources. Find the most overloaded server out there. Once search returned 641 sites on a shared host. Wow.

Texter is a great time saving tool for Windows users that do a lot of typing or coding. Within a few minutes, you can set Texter up to replace a few keystrokes with any text you choose. It makes blogging a snap. I can type hre+TAB key and instantly I’ve got a fully formatted link tag with the URL in my clipboard pasted in my document. Try it, you’ll like it.
