Lady In Red

I can't resist insane flash animation especially if it invloves kittens. Also features puppies from the Japanese fisheye puppy site which is worth a look in it's own right. Animation by Phil Price.

Cooking By Numbers

Your fridge is half empty but you want to cook something tasty? Try cooking by numbers - select the items you do have and it'll tell you what you can cook. Genius idea but it couldn't cope with my fridge contents - one pack out of date bacon and a bottle of champagne (courtesy of Jules). The best it could manage was bacon surprise - I guess I could drink the champagne to the numb the pain from whatever I come down with from eating the aging bacon.

Domo Darko

Truely sw33t Domo Kun video soon to be linked on every blog in the known universe - and this one is no exception. For more Domo Kun goodies including some natty wallpaper try I Love Domo Kun. If you don't know who Domo Kun is - firstly where have you been? - secondly try here for a background description - where I cribbed all my knowledge from having seen the little chap in loads of animations. Update: The music from the clip is on the Donnie Darko soundtrack which can be heard and bought at CDBaby. [Video homepage at fnord - Found via b3ta].

RAM

An experiment in collective recognition - Random Access Memory is somewhere to put all those random memories you want to hang on to and to read those of others. You can browse by date, name, or subject - my favourite thing though is to just refresh the homepage once in a while - the featured memory changes every 30 secs or so and this adds more random-ness to the whole experience : sad follows happy follows angry follows surreal. It's difficult to stop hanging on to read the next memory.

Tony & George

It's touching when world leaders hell-bent on war take time out to sing a beautiful duet [4.5Mb]. Who knew Tony had such a beautiful singing voice? Clip hosted at Dagbladat which as far as I can make out is a Norweigian news site.

Snowcrash Netsurfer

From Sweden the Snowcrash Netsurfer is the ultimate in comfort for those prolonged web surfing sessions - Ikea this is not. The phrase in the blurb - "Pillows support the neck and lower back" - sounds particularly good and almost sells the product on it's own. One of these at work would be just great altough I'm thinking it'll wouldn't look nearly as good will my Dell racked up as it does with the Mac.

Lonely Socks

Where do all those socks that get lost in the wash go to? Well all the lonely ones that get left behind are posted at lonely socks. Are you a single sock that ran away from home after a particularly bad tumble drying experience - then find your lost sole (pun intended) mate here. It's sites like this that shore up my assertion that you can find EVERYTHING on the internet.

Ask Honest John

I used to ask Jeeves quite a lot as I think it's quite a nice way to search but eventually I'd always return to the old favourite. Now there's a new kid on the block - ask honest John. He always comes up with a pukka answer to your question - well normally his own questions but you can can't have everything. All of the answers seem to be entertaining but of no use what so ever.
