GeoWhiz
Pin cities, quiz flags & capitals on a 3D globe
What it does
GeoWhiz is a free, beautifully designed geography quiz game that runs entirely in your browser. Unlike basic quiz apps, GeoWhiz renders on an interactive 3D globe — making it feel like you're actually exploring the world. Test yourself across 3 game modes: find countries on the map, identify flags, guess capitals — or pin 1,400+ real cities by location. 195 countries, multiple regions, and a city pinning mode that challenges even geography experts. No sign-up. No ads. Just pure geography.

Hi HN, I made a web game to practice country locations a while ago and HN liked it, so I thought I'd post my updated version as well.

I would love to hear your feedback! Thanks.

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
