Convert a website to PDF

Ever come across a website and wish you could save it for later?  For offline reading on an iPod – or just to save it for prosperity?  The you’re in luck 🙂  When I wanted to save a copy of an online tutorial I looked up the site Web 2 PDF.  It was easy to use and only took a few seconds to turn an entire web page into a PDF.  I was impressed by how close it looked to the original and it kept all of the text selectable.

If you’re lucky enough to have a full version of Acrobat you can even combine all the PDFs together to make your very own DRM free eBook 🙂

Japanese Color Guide

While attending my online Japanese class one of the other students shared a link to the lovely Japanese Color Guide site.  What is cool about this site is that it has translations for a heap of different colors next to a sample of the color itself.  They don’t have every color under the sun, but it’s a nice resource if you’ve ever wondered how to say vermillion in Japanese (Syu-iro by the way.)
