5 short links for today #21

1. Maggwire: Read articles from over 600 popular magazines online. Plenty of big names like Fortune, PC World, Sports Illustrated, Time, People and so on. One small snag – you can’t read the whole issue, only selected articles.

2. 100+ free games from Microsoft: Small, casual games that can be played online for free. If you want to download, you have to pay. [via Shell Extension City]

3. Creately: Create great looking diagrams, screen mockups, UML diagrams, flowcharts, chemistry diagrams and so on. The free plan allows creation of unlimited diagrams but they are all watermarked. Bummer! $4.95 a month will remove that.

4. Photovisi: Create collages from your photos and turn them into wallpapers for your desktop.

5. Emre’s JavaScript Tetris: A self playing (computer controlled) game of Tetris. Very cool to watch. Now here is the fun part - change “fields=1” in the URL to “fields=9” and see what happens. Whoaa!

To play the game simply delete the part “?fields=1” in the URL of the page.

However, there are times when you may want to change the cover photo frequently and periodically to match event dates or some special promotion that you are running or plan to run.
