Cat Stacking

Cat Stacking is a game similar to Tetris, but with cats...

Alex Chiu - Internet Superstar

I can't believe it has taken me this long to run across Alex Chiu on the web.

Babycal throw

My wife showed me this one a while back, but I had long since forgotten about it. Babycal throw is one of those games that is suprisingly addictive despite being fairly wierd.

POOM!

Bouncing a ball should not be this hard....

The Cubes

Finally, the drudgery of corporate life has been captured in a play set for adults! The Cubes spend eight hours a day, five days a week, at tiny desks in tiny cubicles.

Sinosplice's China Junk Food Review

Sinosplice's China Junk Food Review highlights foods I've never heard of before and probably will never see. Check out the second edition for more when you've finished chewing on #1.

Political Compass

GasBuddy

Search for gas prices by US Zip Code

What can I say? GasBuddy seems to make a lot more sense now than when I last heard of it a couple of years ago. The camparison charts are also an interesting newer feature. Who would have thought that gas is more expensive in Cleveland than in Washington DC?

Planet Designer lets you play with the physics of planetary systems. I keep making planets that won't hold their atmosphere, but I'll just rent them cheap! A fun way to learn a little bit more about physics.

The Old Negro Space Program

The Old Negro Space Program - The shocking but false story of America's blackstronauts.

Peekaboom

A fun game, and apparently you're helping computers to learn to see at the same time. Peekaboom is this week's top timewaster for me!

Spamusement

Either way, it has an RSS feed making it easier to get that fresh Spamusement daily.

One of my favorites:

New High tech product thats sure to please
