​Here are some amazing random cool stuff that I found on the internet this week - just click and enjoy

This week:​
  1. 100,000 Stars - This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen on the web. It shows a representation of galaxy with stars inside it. You can take a tour which starts from the Sun and takes you to the outer edges of the galaxy while teaching you valuable insights in between.                          
  2. The Odd 1s Out - Another comic strip website which is really hilarious. The comics are a satirical take on everyday life questions and just funny stuff. They also have a corresponding YouTube channel if you are interested.
  3. How Stuff Works - As the name suggests, the website focuses on detailing how stuff works. From soda fountains to tornados, you will find everything here. Everything is written in a short and easy to understand language. You will have fun and also learn a lot here.
  4. Nautilus - A great place to read informative and impeccably written articles dealing with a multitude of topics which can be broadly divided into science, history, psychology, and autobiography. If you are looking to learn while passing time, there’s no better place.
  5. WiKi How - This is the answer to all your question. If you ever need to find how to do anything and I mean anything (just don’t go crazy), you can find it here.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            ​

This week:                                                                                                                                       

1. Performance Management:
BambooHR is a great performance management tool for small businesses and medium-sized organizations. Its performance review system is made for the redefined performance management landscape including frequent check-ins. It comes with an impressive reporting feature that provides real-time insights on high-performers and people with performance issues.
​
2. Multipurpose CRM:
Perhaps you'd rather get a quick glance at your contacts' info without having to click through to their individual page. That's what Clevertim does best. It shows you a quick summary of your contact info right in the contact list, so if all you need is to look up an email or phone number you'll likely be able to do it without a click. You can then filter your lists easy by name, location, and more, to get even more details without having to click through to individual contact pages.

3. Diagramming Software: 
Lucidchart is an flexible yet powerful flowchart and diagram software that integrates with other collaboration tools, enabling visual collaboration for teams. It allows for any user to take a concept, whether developed or not, and bring it to life through a collaborative process.

4. Calendar App: 
Any.do is our pick of the best all-round calendar app. It is available on mobile and desktop platforms, but it really shines on mobile thanks to an easy-to-use interface that gives you all the tools and information you need on smaller touchscreens. 

5. Ecommerce App: 
Groupon app provides ‘deal of the day’ recommendation services for their customers. Users are lured to avail great offers on a variety of things they need in general (such as eating out at a restaurant or shopping at a fashion store or even a tropical getaway).

    This week:​
    1. The Moth - If you love the art of storytelling, you are going to love this website. The website houses real life stories told by the people themselves. It also has a podcast which features all the stories told across the world on Moth stages. These are literally stories for your ears.                                 
    2. Little Alchemy -  This one is a fun little time killer. As its name suggests, the website deals with the process of transformation you achieve when you start mixing different things. You start with Earth, Fire, Water, and Air. The goal is to create as many different materials or objects as possible. 
    3. XKCD - The website contains original satirical comic strips relating to romance, math, and language. You will laugh so hard that tears will come out of eyes. If you love maths you are especially going to enjoy this one.
    4. Wait But Why - The website is pretty cool and deals with normal news and other content related to life. Some simple stick figures are used to explain the topics in a funny way. The website surely seems eccentric and funny.
    5. This Is Why I Am Broke - This is a great website for discovering new gift ideas which are distinct. The products range from a few dollars to a few thousand. There’s something for everyone here.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             ​

This week:​
  1. Laughing Squid updates with several new posts a day featuring the newest, freshest content. Posts are kept pretty short too, making it perfect for browsing casually.                                  
  2. Hyperbole and a Half is a wonderfully colorful and comedic site to browse through. It is hilarious and immensely relatable.
  3. Writing about your emotions can help you to feel better mentally and physically. There’s a website urging you to do just that. As a Novni author you can write with complete honesty and remain totally anonymous.
  4. If you’ve got a math or science question—or you want to help someone with a math or science question--check out Brilliant . More than 1.5 million people use it as as a learning and teaching platform.
  5. Freedom app blocks anything from the entire internet, to singular websites, to smartphone apps on IOS or Windows - certainly a wide range of coverage.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            ​

This week:​
  1. Online Gaming Website: Miniclip is the world’s largest online gaming website. Browse through and find your favorite.                                  
  2. Social Networking: A forum of good ideas and conversations, Hubski has a passionate, growing population which seem to take pride in avoiding the nastiness that large communities seem to encourage. It brings to the table a sort of mix of Twitter and Reddit.
  3. Web Magazine: AddictiveTips covers everything from hardware and operating systems to software reviews and hacks. The audience includes early tech adopters, social media enthusiasts, entrepreneurs, technology journalists, bloggers, and geeks.
  4. Top Ten List: A website listing top tens for a wide range of subjects- movies, music, games, websites basically anything you can think under sun. It also helps you decide buy comparing products.
  5. Shark Tracker: Tracking sharks as they swim around the ocean may not be the most interesting way to waste time on the internet ... but it might be the coolest. You can zoom in on a specific location to see which sharks are hanging out there and where they've been swimming and traveling for the past year.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 ​
