Multiplication by drawing and mathsisfun.com listed on yahoo!
This is a nifty trick that involves multiplication by drawing:

Below the add for the video there is a link to a list of math websites and mathsisfun is listed! The link is on yahoo's homepage right now. Hopefully this will boost the sites popularity.

What does annoy me, though, the site is advertised as a math site for kids. There is plenty to be had here for children, but also for A level math students! I wonder if there's a way the mainpage could be made to look less kiddy, but still appealing to children as well. Hmmm...

A logarithm is just a misspelled algorithm.

Hmmm... interesting how they keep finding new ways to do these things. It would be too time-consuming to use in my studies, but it is pretty cool nevertheless.

Cool trick. But 897 × 798 could be hard.
I have been thinking of a mild re-design of the front page. I just don't have any ideas yet.
And I told Yahoo that it should be listed in the main math sites over a year ago ... but no response. I think they get millions of requests for inclusion and just ignore them.

If you want some input from the users, you could make post in the suggestions forum. I guess you must have some things you "want it (not) to be", and if you wrote that down, people could make suggestions, post examples, etc.
