nice entity is a slick, clean website that does just one thing and does it well. It's a large, interactive table that shows all HTML entities and it lists each with its Unicode character and entity text.
To the uninitiated, HTML entities are little pieces of text that you may use instead of punctuation that would otherwise be "confusing" for the computer or break the page. For example, a "greater than" sign is used on every HTML (or XML, for that matter) tag. So, the safest way to display such a sign (when you really do want just the sign and want to make sure that no computer will mistake it for part of a tag) is to use its entity. For "greater than," this is "gt." All entities start with an ampersand and end with a semicolon - so, "greater than" is actually >.
There are a ton of these, and "nice entity" provides one of the most usable, aesthetically pleasing, and easily searchable lists that I have seen so far. It's also completely devoid of any sort of advertising (as far as I could see). Very nice!
