Old face restorer<\/strong>
I use this\u00a0Baseten web page<\/a>\u00a0app to restore old family photos. The engine only focuses on faces, making them shaper and skin smoother, but sometimes that is all that is needed. I upload my old photo, restore in 15 seconds and then download. Works pretty well, sometimes perfectly, in color and black and white. Free. \u2014 KK

Laundry symbols app<\/strong>
Laundry Lens<\/a>\u00a0is an iPhone-only app that scans the inscrutable laundry care symbols on clothing tags and translates them into English. It\u2019s free and doesn\u2019t display ads.\u00a0Here\u2019s the result of my T-shirt label scan<\/a>. \u2014 MF

Figure out where to move next<\/strong>
My husband and I are planning to move out of California in 5 years and have been traveling to other states to check them out. We still haven\u2019t agreed on a place, but I recently discovered this\u00a0MoveMap<\/a>\u00a0which makes things easier. I filtered by my criteria: avoid drought, mountains within an hour, airport within two hours and a lot of sun. What I get back is select counties in Arizona and Colorado and most of Utah \u2014 as well as Santa Clara County, which is where I live now. \u2014 CD\u00a0

You Look Good welcome mat
<\/strong>My new\u00a0door mat<\/a>\u00a0greets guests with a cheery message. The natural fiber welcome mat says: YOU LOOK GOOD. Visitors enter with a smile on their face. \u2014 KK

10 tricks for persuasive writing<\/strong>
Even if you\u2019re not a copywriter, knowing the psychology of persuasive speech is helpful for everyone. We all write emails, and sometimes we have to sell people on ourselves or ask for something. Nick Kolenda created this\u00a07-minute video<\/a>\u00a0on clever techniques in copywriting to boost sales. He explains how to replace vagueness with concrete examples, positive framing, and how to create mental imagery in the reader by adjusting the distance between words. It\u2019s interesting and informative and I\u2019ll probably rewatch it a few times. \u2014 CD

History in pictures, then and now<\/strong>
This is a series of photos of\u00a0WWII Polish resistance fighters<\/a>\u00a0who battled the Germans in a Warsaw ghetto for 27 days. On the left of each image is how they appeared in 1940. On the right are photos of the same surviving men and woman taken in 2021. Follow\u00a0historyphotographed<\/a>\u00a0for the most fascinating photos from the past. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n\n\n\n
