5 Links for Friday

I visit a lot of websites in the course of a week. A few end up in my Del.icio.us feed. I hope to give you a short list of a few I found interesting each week. Let me know what you think?

• TextOpus - Is a collection of web-based tools for manipulating text. Tools like convert all text to UPPER CASE or lower case. Or Capitalize First Character In A Word. Or maybe you need a Morse Code translator.
• intoDNS - I have spent some time fighting some Domain Name Service (DNS) issues lately. IntoDNS was helpful in understanding a few things. I’m still working on understanding my problem. Watch for a post next week on my issue.
• NearlyFreeSpeech.NET - I learned about this web hosting company from Alex Connor. Have not tried it yet but it is worth a look.
• Google Docs Download - Is a Firefox script that allows you to quickly and easily download all of your Google Docs and Spreadsheets to your local computer. So now I can backup all my Google stuff just in case Google turns evil.

So what have you discovered this week? Please share your favorite link of the week in the comments. Thanks!
