Analysis
The Scandroid is a free program released under the GNU Public License for OS X and Windows environments designed to scan English verse in iambic and anapestic meters, either from a text file or entered by hand. The program explains its process as it scans the text, such as identifying syllables or lexical stresses, or dividing lines into feet, so users can learn about its analysis in addition from its output.
Analysis
Time Flow is an open-source timeline built to help journalists analyze temporal data. The application offers several view modes--timeline, calendar, list, table--to help explore thousands of data points. It is not a web-based tool--it is a desktop application that can run off a thumb-drive and is built to handle large datasets, and timeline events that may include approximate dates or date spans. The project is in the alpha stage of development, but is available for download from Github.
