Rhyming dictionaries are great, not only because they help us finish off our salty poems, but also because they introduce us to spiffy new words like “Mashantucket.”

WriteRhymes is a handy little resource for any aspiring poet - or anyone who like to annoy their co-workers by needlessly speaking in rhymes. Type some text in the box, alt click a word, and suggested rhymes appear in a balloon. They’re even grouped by syllable count for easy integration into your poetic rhythm.

You can even print, copy, and save your literary works via three handy buttons below the text box. Neato!

We did try, but sadly there are still no words that rhyme with orange or purple. Or verisimilitude, for that matter.

Ever wonder which site provides a higher ratio of internal to external links, Engadget or Download Squad? Want to know if there’s a hidden message in the headers of a web page? URl-info can help.

Here’s how it works. Visit the site, enter a URL, and hit go. Pretty simple, eh? What you get is some basic information about the web page, including the server operating system, what kind of web analytics the site uses (although the only one we managed to detect was Google Analytics on a handful of sites), and a list of images and internal and external links on a site.

If you click the Images tab, you can scroll your mouse over the URLs of images to see thumbnail versions. The links tab provides a list of links and a nifty graphic showing the ratio of internal to external links. In other words, you can find a whole bunch of information you never really needed. But if you have nothing better to do with your day than try to dig up some stats about your favorite web sites, this is the tool for you.

Google has finally pulled back the curtain on its so-called Wikipedia killer, Google Knol. We first heard that Google was looking at launching a user-editable encyclopedia-style web services late last year. But to be perfectly honest, a lot’s happened in the last 7 months and we kind of forgot about it. Now that it’s here, we’re not entirely sure it’s fair to call it a Wikipedia-killer.

Knol provides a place to find information about topics ranging from lung cancer to toilet clogs. What makes it different from Wikipedia is that while any user can suggest alterations to articles, the original author gets to decide whether or not to include those changes. In theory, this will help prevent people who don’t know what they’re talking about from ripping apart an article from an authority on a topic. In practice, since anyone can write an article on any topic, whether they know what they’re talking about or not, it could be even harder to find reliable information on Knol than Wikipedia.

Knol’s saving grace might be that users can write multiple articles on the same topic. So if you think you know how to build a better mouse trap than the 20 other writers who have published their own methods, you can write your own article. Readers can then rank stories so hopefully only the most accurate and/or helpful “knols” will find their way to the top of the pile.

Creating a Knol is fairly straightforward. You just sign in with your Google account and start writing. You can also import documents create in Microsoft Word, Excel, PDF or TXT file.

We love free fonts, but sometimes the process of finding half-decent ones can be pretty annoying. Fontspace.com tries to smooth out the rough spots for free font junkies.

Instead of simply categorizing fonts, Fontspace uses the good ol’ tagging system - which provides easier access to similar fonts. The broad categories on some other sites (sorry DaFont) often lead to large, tiresome lists that require a boatload of time to sift through.

Registered users can also add fonts to their favorites ; thi can be extremely useful in the event that someone - your husband , for example - accidentally forgets to back up your fonts before a reformat.

Popular video hosting site Vimeo has announced that they will no longer allow videos of video games on the site. Specifically, they’re going to be deleting “game walk-throughs, game strategy videos, depictions of player vs player battles, raids, fraps, or any other video gaming videos that simply depict individuals playing a video game.” As of September 1st, all videos that fall under that description will be deleted.

The staff blog post on the subject lists some reasons for the decision, including the staff’s feeling that these videos don’t meet the standards of “creative expression” that the site tries to uphold. More importantly, though, video game vids tend to be some of the longest and most common videos on the site, slowing down transcoding times for the other content that Vimeo is apparently trying to encourage.

Debate has already fired up in the comments section of the Vimeo blog, as users wonder why the site would cut off a type of video that is evidently popular enough to take up significant system resources. There’s also a fair share of relieved comments from folks who are glad to see this type of “unoriginal” content removed from the site. We can see the points that both sides are making, but what’s your take?

Speechable understands that a picture is worth a thousand words, and thus a picture with words must be worth exponentially more.

Speechable provides a simple method to adding speech bubbles to your photos. Just upload a photo, select one or more speech bubbles, and place them wherever you like. You can resize both the text and the bubble to better fit the picture. When you are done adding bubbles, you are given links to add the photo to your blog, website, or email it to a friend.

We could find few differences between Speechable and Kyolo: a similar service that we recently reviewed. Most notably the use of rectangular bubbles instead of elliptical. We can’t help but think that the first service to add multiple bubble shapes will win the war.
