Twitter on a C64
Sad because your old Commodore 64 can’t be involved with social networking? Have no fear, Breadbox 64 is here! Twitter away on your C64.
Check if a site is down all over or just for you
Gmail was temporarily down today all over and I found (via Twitter) an awesome site that checks if a site is down across the board or just for you
Earth Hour Photos
I have to confess that I didn’t once think about Earth Hour the day it happened. Still, others obviously did and these photos of lights off in action are pretty awesome.
Random Album Cover
Generate a random album cover using Wikipedia, Quotes and Flickr images.
Netflix
I love watching Netflix instantly on my Xbox 360, but I like others hate their interface for finding available movies. Instant Watcher simplifies the process.
Cube Craft
Print and make your own Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, Mario, Peter Griffin or even President Obama. There are tons to choose from.
The Bush Era
Harper’s Magazine has a handy dandy list of stats from the Bush era. If you’re a Bush fan please note that they’re not all related to the man, just the time-frame he was in office. For example: “Minimum amount that religious groups received in congressional earmarks from 2003 to 2006: $209,000,000″. See? There are assholes on both sides.
Tiny Poems
They don’t get much shorter than photos of poems written on Post-It Notes.
Pop-Ups
Roert Sauda’s collection of simple pop-ups has print outs and complete directions. Knowing my prowess at making anything I should probably start the Mother’s Day one now.
Speak & Spell
This online Speak & Spell is bringing back some memories.
Bike Hero
The Bike Hero movie’s been making the rounds for a few days, but I’ve just watched it for the first time myself. This is one of the most creative vids I’ve seen in a while. If you know what a Guitar Hero (or even Rock Band) note chart looks like, check it out.
Tonight’s Bedtime Story
Print out a classic and you’ll have something to read for Tonight’s Bedtime Story. Illustrations included!
Subterranean Cinema
Subterranean Cinema is one mess of a website, very 1998 Geocities. Still, lots of good video clips can be found there. The Andy Kaufman compilation is great.
Film Roster
Film Roster‘s a new find for me (but maybe old for you). It’s like a better quality Youtube for film-related video. Good stuff.
PG Porn
Finally, porn without the bothersome sex.
More Cowbell
Finally a site has been created solely to add More Cowbell to any song you want.
Giant
Holy crap! That’s one giant rabbit/a>.
Angel Oak Tree
Can there really be a 1,500 year old tree in South Carolina? People think the Angel Oak Tree just might be.
Beth Cavener Stichter
Some of the sculptures/art created by Beth Cavener Stichter is interesting and/or cool. Most are safe for work, just mind the one featuring two animals with erect penises making out.
