http://www.scotorbot.scot/ - Helps people figure out whether a twitter account was likely to be a bot

This was commisioned by https://twitter.com/AlynSmith, I expected a little more, that I would enter a twitter handle and that it would do the work for me, but some handy information nonetheless

https://www.theyworkforyou.com/ - Get information about MP's, voting history etc

I use this quite a lot to get an idea of voting records, some of the information is a but complicated for me, and it seems like its possibly a huge project, but very useful

https://www.scotfact.com/ - Tools and visualisations regarding the economics of independence

I havent looked a lot at this, some of the tools looks very useful and seemingly popular, I have a gut feeling although they make a big mention of it being "impartial" it seems like it could have a unionist slant

Nice design, very useful for keeping politicians accountable
