Packrat Tools packrattools.com
A collection of tools for Packrat (a virtual social collection-based game on Facebook). These include a MOO Sticker generator (using the MOO API - currently disabled); a Market Tracker, which uses a cron job that scrapes information from the site (with permission); an Information tool, which displays recipes and market information for the cards; and a Mockup generator. They have been received well by the Packrat community, and the developers of the game.
