Awesome Websites You Might Have Missed
Name Voyager! Really interesting app that lets you explore name popularity. Also see Name Mapper for where they’re used and Namipedia for their meanings..
Fonolo.com Two words: awe some. I hate calling customer service lines and waiting forever. I’m actually looking forward to the next time, so I can try this out.
KnowYourMeme.com is sort of like Snopes for all classic internet memes, from Star Wars Kid, to present day. It digs in and shows you what they mean (if anything), where they came from, and why they became internet phenomena. Warning: this amazingness may suck up your entire day.

Crowdspring: A logo design site. Clients post the projects – designers compete by creating logos – client chooses their favorite – winning designer gets paid. A really great idea for clients on a budget and designers looking to make some extra cash. Get out your sketchbook and go!
