3. A Good Movie to Watch

Every now and then you need a break, my guess is that you might want to see a movie, but which one? You probably saw every movie that you can think of.

On the plus side, you can search by genre, mood, year and more.

You probably came across the problem that you can’t explain another problem with words and a screenshot just isn’t enough. But a small-movie clip, that might explain it!

7. Down for Everyone or Just Me?

It’s probably not new that you thought you broke the internet or the website you were working on.
But before you panic, check the website “down for everyone or just me”. And if it is you, panic.

10. 10-Minute Mail

We all know the problem that you need to register an account just to download that one file that you just can’t find on any other site. But you want to avoid to get another newsletter with daily updates. Then remember this website! It will create an email address for 10 minutes. Enough time to use this email address to register an account and click the link in the email to confirm your registration. If 10 minutes isn’t enough, you can simply ask for another 10 minutes.

12. ManualsLib

This is just a site that you have to bookmark. We don’t always read our manuals and safe it on a spot that you know that you can find it there when you need it, but let’s be honest, you’ll never find it there.. Well, this website has a great database stored with manuals, just for you.
