FREE Cloud Based Unit Converter

Converticious

If you need a quick (and attractive) way to determine conversion factors between different units of measurement for the same quantity (e.g. 1 Mile = 5280 Feet; 90 Fahrenheit = 32.222 Celsius), then visit Converticious.

Coverticious is an attractive cloud application that you can launch and use, simply by visiting the website (no software to install).  Another great example of using software as a service across the internet.

    Easier to Google. :) It supports conversions with queries formated like “1 mile in feet”

    Thanks for this Rick.

    In Canada we have used the metric system, for all measurements, for 25+ years now. Despite that, people of my generation, and even younger, I might add, still like to think in Imperial measurements.

    So, when the weatherman tells me we are going to have 5 millimeters of rain, I have to convert to inches to figure out what that means. Or if someone is 1 M 45 tall, I have to convert to feet and inches.

    This site will help immeasurably; pun intended of course!

    Bill,

    Actually this was a very “non-complex” post on my part, but it is simple things like this that the “everyday” computer user finds useful.

    Thank you for visiting and commenting.

    Begin by subtracting 32 from the Fahrenheit number.
    Divide the answer by 9.
    Then multiply that answer by 5…

    Huh?

    Highly useful post, since I’m a chick when it comes to numbers.

    If we’re going to chat cloud computing, what about Facebook as an OS?
