Our World of Text is a miscellaneous web resource for discovery, directories, archives, web culture, or useful tools.
Purrli is an online cat purr generator that recreates the sound and presence of a purring cat through a custom sound engine modelled after real purrs. The site lists use cases such as anxiety relief, sleep, and homesickness, and states that it is a free website that runs without ads.
My Grandmother’s Lingo is a voice-activated interactive animation published by SBS that tells the story of a young Aboriginal woman fighting to preserve the critically endangered Marra Indigenous language. The experience lasts roughly 10 minutes, with each Marra word a user learns unlocking a new chapter of the narrative. Full functionality requires microphone access and is optimized for desktop use on Chrome or Firefox browsers. The project notes a language is lost globally every two weeks, and over 90% of Australia’s Indigenous languages are critically endangered.
WebcamExplore is a platform that provides 24/7 access to over 10,000 live 4K webcams from global locations, including beaches, mountains, city streets, and events. It includes intuitive categories, location filters, and responsive layouts for use on any device, enabling real-time viewing of destinations worldwide.
A website for randomly exploring the IndieWeb. Clicking a button redirects the visitor to a random post from a personal blog. The linked content is aggregated automatically, and the site states that it neither endorses nor necessarily agrees with the linked sites. A hint notes the button can be dragged to bookmarks.
Land Lines is a Chrome experiment that lets users explore real Google Earth satellite imagery through gesture. Drawing finds satellite images matching a line, while dragging creates an infinite line of connected rivers, highways and coastlines. It runs in a phone or desktop browser without backend servers using machine learning and WebGL.
Tamajoji is a free old school virtual pet simulation game developed by aericode. It is playable directly in a web browser via HTML5, supports singleplayer gameplay, and carries tags for 2D, animal, and tamagotchi-style content. The game has a released status, is available in English, and holds a 4.8 out of 5 star average rating from 6 user ratings on its official itch.io listing. Simulation mode must be enabled in the game-mode menu prior to play.
