No, the Internet is not just for porn. Here are some handy things you may not have known you can do online.
Things you didn't know you could do online No. 1 - Find your ring size
Get a ring and driver's license and go to FindMyRingSize.com to determine what your ring size is. It is really easy to discern your size with the site and other sites comparable to it. You can even use a virtual ruler if you do not have a ring as a comparison.
Determine what glasses you need
Online eye ware retailer Warby Parker made it a lot simpler for customers to figure out their pupillary distance using a webcam, card and slip of paper. It is a useful tool for consumers attempting to figure out the distance between their eyes. A prescription is easy to get, but most of the time, pupillary distance is not listed, making it hard to purchase glasses online.
See your seat Z
SeatGuru and other online websites will provide you with a seat map in a flight, so you can see a picture of the exact seat on the flight. There is also a tool where consumers can flag seats if there is a problem with them, making it easier on everyone.
Things you didn't know you can do on the internet No. 4 - Make 3-D crafts
You can draw up a design and print it with Shapeways and i.Materialise. There are other websites that can help with 3-D projects too.
Get a helper really quickly
You can get somebody else to do small jobs for you such as pet-sitting and gift-shopping while you are too busy with TaskRabbit. A personal assistant is already pre-screened for the job and can help you out.
Create a police-sketch after negative experience
If things go south with your one-time assistant, sites like Ultimate Flash Face make it easy for you to easily create a police-style sketch of the assailant. This is not to suggest that TaskRabbit doesn't defend its consumers - it goes the additional mile. Please don't sue us.
Lectures, notes and tasks from MIT
Through MIT, you can get a science education for free. The MIT Department of Physics has a bunch of notes, tasks, video lectures and more available through the Open Courseware program.
Get a record for Congress
Not sure whether you need to vote your local Congressperson's carcass back into office? Sites like OpenCongress enable you to go straight into their voting record to see if they are in tune with your political leanings on the problems. How they vote on bills, problems and policies are all there. If you are not sure who your senator or representative is, you can enter your ZIP code into OpenCongress and it will tell you.
