Control this family’s Christmas Tree.  Very cool stuff.

It’s an online clock that uses javascript to update it — except it has a barcode as it’s “clock.”  Very interesting if you ask me.

I have spend many hours looking through the quotes and stories on this site.  Some people are so stupid with computers!

When I came across this, I was blown away.  This lists [number] facts about numbers 1 through 9999.  Obviously it doesn’t contain every number, because not every number is special, but it is amazing to glance through.

Have you ever needed to find a sound of a dog barking?  Or how about the sound of a humming bird?  This nifty search engine does just that!

Quoted from the page: This page generates one-time pads or password lists in a variety of forms. It is based a high-quality pseudorandom sequence generator, which can be seeded either from the current date and time, or from a seed you provide.

You should visit this site.  If you know anything about the game of chess, you should visit it.  Even if you don’t know how to play chess, you should visit it (You should really learn if you don’t know how to play).  It’s simply amazing how it illustrates how the computer thinks up the next move.

I am linking this site merely for it’s usage of flash. I think it’s amazing what some people can do. The desktop images made by some people are cool too, but I really just like the frontend.

Do you get bored easily?  Chances are if you are reading this, you have nothing better to do.  I found that site a while ago and it’s very interesting.  It will keep you occupied for quite some time.  But don’t forget to come back here!

I have always looked for a quick and easy whois lookup.  I was on the verge of killing godaddy before I found this site.  Very simple and straight to the point.  Plus, it has a list of the 100 oldest .com domain names.  Very interesting if you ask me!

Pretty good math humor site.  It has my favorite math pickup line:

“I’m not being obtuse but you’re acute girl!”

This is a funny little flash file … moral of the flash?  Smoking kills!
Just to note:  This ISN’T the NUMBER ONE BEST LINK I’VE FOUND but it’s just something that I found that I like…and because it’s the first thing I came across, I decided to put it on here first.  I don’t exactly know why I started this numbering thing, but I think it’s pretty cool.  So yeah.  Number One!

To repay my readers for the lack of posts, I will post quite a number of some of my favorite links I’ve come across in the recent weeks in the next couple of days.  Have fun and Happy Turkey Day!

This is extremely nifty!  Make sure you have zoom on

Ever wonder where zip 12345 is located? 

This isn’t the best Optical Illusions site I’ve come across, but it’s got a couple good things on it.  Most of the word things I failed at (they aren’t exactly every good to be honest).  But the pictures are interesting. 

This nifty site allows you to freely draw if you are bored.  You can also invite your friends to draw along with you.  

Sidenote:  This site hasn’t been updated recently due to WordPress.com’s recent downtime.  My ISP thought that it was down for much longer than it really was for some odd reason :sigh:

It’s games like these that make me stay up late playing them because it’s just so addicting.  If you have 30 min to kill, play this game.  I got a high score of 412,710.  Beat me, will you? 

Here is a collection of some of Apple’s TV ads.  The only ones I recall are the iMac and iBook ones.  They are definately worth looking through.  The 1984 ones are very interesting. 

I have just caught wind that a new movie featuring the lovable characters Wallace and Gromit is coming out in about a week an a half on October 7.  You can view the trailer to see more about the film.  For those unfamiliar with these two characters, a bit of history will help you out.  I can’t wait to see this.

I have been playing with this nifty tool for the past 30 minutes.  The idea and premise behind this is very interesting.  Basically you create different shapes to try to make them move on their own.  Sounds weird, right?  Well it somewhat is, but it’s rather nifty too, so definately check this out if you have 30 minutes to kill.

Note:  Read the “How to get started”…I tried to do things before reading this and it helps a lot
