External Links Filter (ELF) is an input filter that adds small icons to external and mailto links, informing users the link will take them to a new site or open their email client.
This module displays events occurring on this day in history. For example, if today was January 6th the birth of Joan of Arc (born January 6, 1412) might be displayed.
This Day in History module adds the node type: Historical event, and supports the Node import module for importing historical events. User created historical events are displayed in blocks. Any number of blocks can be created, and the events displayed can be selected by a number of different criteria, including randomly. If no event exists for the current day, no block is displayed.

Graphviz Filter is a fun little filter that treats input text as GraphvizDOT syntax, converts it using Graphviz tools to the requested format(s) and renders it in HTML. It's useful to quickly create graphs dynamically from within Drupal nodes. A particularly exciting application is to create an input format consisting of PHP code followed by Graphviz Filter, thereby allowing one to write code that outputs a DOT file, which is then rendered to HTML. For example, one could create a visual taxonomy tree with nodes hanging from the terms, and each visual node would be clickable (using the URL Graphviz attribute) to point to the actual Drupal node. Stuff like that!
