As Richard Nixon once said, "The Chinese use two brush strokes to write the word crisis (危机). One brush stroke, 危, stands for danger; the other, 机, stands for opportunity". This quote is particularly apt for the current COVID-19 pandemic. While the virus is highly contagious and poses a significant danger, it has also created opportunities for people to focus on projects and activities they may not have had time for before. During this shelter-in-place/stay-at-home period, I have been working on building websites for my own personal use. I have developed a number of sites that serve different purposes and contain a variety of content, such as Flag Finder - WorldStats, dog slideshows, dad jokes, music playlists, trivia quiz, math fun, memory training, to-do notepad and more. Some are for my personal use, while others are for developers. I have also made an effort to ensure that these sites are friendly to mobile devices. I encourage you to add them to your home screen as a web application for quick access on your mobile phone - you can find instructions on how to do this here. Without further ado, I invite you to explore the web applications I have built and see what they have to offer.
