Web Links

Finds and helpful resources from the whole wide web.

Every now and then while researching or on other occasions, I come across interesting websites that offer special utilities or explain certain topics. I won’t keep them back from you, so they’re published on this page.

You can filter the list by tags or sort it with the following controls. Particularly interesting items are highlighted in yellow.

Should you encounter a broken link, please let me know! Even though I use this list myself, I cannot check everything all the time.
