- URLs - contains a set of regular expressions to recognize facebook, twitter and youtube urls
- Slugify - generates SEO-friendly "alias" from a string using https://github.com/slugify/slugify, but in addition supports pluggable uniqueness test and returns a unique alias
- Country code converter - maps country name to two-character code and vice versa based on http://restcountries.eu/
- Convert/hash id to shorter URL-friendly string
