“This Java applet formats freeway signs for you. You provide the route numbers, town names, exits, and your choice of arrows — and SignMaker draws a sign for you. Since SignMaker uses the authentic ‘freeway font’ (FHWA E(M)), provides over 40 route markers to choose from, and mounts the sign on metal supports against a blue sky, the effect is quite realistic.”

“The Ad Critic was created for those who find advertising more than just an annoyance between TV shows. Advertising is a part of every culture. With 96% of households with TV’s, and only 92% with running water, it’s no wonder. Here is where you will find practically any ad you have seen on TV. At least that is the goal. And soon you will be able to tell the world what you thought of the ad. You can vote on it, comment on it, discuss the underlying innuendos, and hopefully even get your comments read by some of the leading advertising agencies in the world.”
