Website and Web Service Reviews
There is probably no explanation needed to this. But anyway, the flip text generator is a single page, single click service that flips or, in other words, inverts the text you type in as input. Also, since the encoding of the flipped text is UTF-8, it would display properly in most places. That is to say, there would not be any errors as in the case of the Japanese or Chinese language.

The only flaw I find is that the font seems different from the one I input. But I guess that is part of the parcel as well. Anyway, you can check out the Flip Text Generator created by David Faden and leave your comments about this interesting little service.
I would also like to point out that David has another service called the GPA calculator where you enter your class, credits and letter grade and get the total credits and your GPA as output. Quite nifty, I must say.
David also has created a simple applet called SearchToHTML.
What is SearchToHTML?
The SearchToHTML applet provides your visitors with a simple way to search your Web site. Search results are displayed in HTML. Using HTML provides your visitors with a familiar interface and provides you with greater control over the display of the search results. Other features of the applet include picking out the closest anchor to a match and displaying the context surrounding a match.
I do wonder why he has no link to the flip text generator from the homepage of his site.
Thanks to Kyle Eslick for the find.
P.S. Though the inverted text is acceptable, the equivalent HTML characters are quite a pain to reproduce.
10 People have responded. What about you?
The SearchtoHTML is one that I find interesting. The others are just for fun, and in my opinion, a more or less waste of time… good fun for time-pass though (and if you want to irritate your friends)
Well, it is for fun indeed. You could use it when you are bored sometime
I really don’t see any use of it. Why would you like to turn upside down to read something
I can imagine getting an email with all the text inverted. That would probably give me a migraine haha.
@ReviewSaurus:
It gives your friends or whoever you are sending it to, a chance to work their mind, or rather their eyes if they are in the mood for it.
@BrownBaron:
I agree. A couple of sentences would do at the max.
But this would be nice for blogs conducting quizzes as they can provide the answer with the questions and not worry about users reading them accidentally.
That’s pretty cool. I don’t know when I’d ever use the text inverter, but the GPA tool may come in handy for me!

Thanks for the mention. The generator is pointless, but at the same time I find myself using it a lot.
You are most welcome
. Pointless, but fun.. That sums it up, I guess
It’s great fun using this.
Ha ha Brown Baron. Don’t get on my bad side then or I must just have to email you a migraine.
Shine on,
