Alan Turing's 100th Birthday

It's been a long, loooooong time since I've researched WWII, so I don't remember much about Alan Turing, but I do remember that he was a really important codebreaker for the British during the war, and he helped crack the German Enigma Machine, which was like, the best coding device ever.

So all in all, a really smart and cool bro.

And today's his 100th birthday, so Google decided to commemorate it by creating this genius interactive doodle that you can learn to solve by watching the following video here!

Jello Time

Possibly one of the best website of all time:
http://www.jellotime.com/
Wave your mouse around a giant picture of Jell-O and watch it respond to your mouse's movements. Complete with sound effects.
SO AWESOME!

DrawAStickman.com

A cool interactive site with a great message at the end! Also, you can edit the message, which is awesome.

A Cute Fish Game

If you have scrolled to the very bottom of my blog lately, you will have noticed I have added a new gadget (made by http://abowman.com/) called A Cute Fish Game (although it's not much of a game). The fishies will swim toward your mouse in hope of some food. Drop fish flakes by clicking anywhere on the 'game'. It's so cute! Comment here if you like/dislike it.

iCarly

A great TV show that's seriously funny (is that oxymoronic?). Airs on YTV every Friday at 6 pm. Even if you don't have cable, you can still watch Season 1 and 2 on Netflix (you can get a 30-day free trial, but be sure to cancel it on time if you don't want it anymore, because it automaticall starts charging once you pass 30 days). You can also check out their website at:
iCarly.com
Even more humour!

Google Pacman

Google Pacman is absolutely awesome!!! Go to http://www.google.com/pacman/ and play! If you don't know how, you have three options:
1) Don't play.
2) Figure it out yourself.
3) Read the following instructions.
You may have noticed the options are listed in order of how smart the idea is. So, 3) is the smartest option to take. Now for the instructions:
You control PacMan (the yellow circle with a piece missing as its mouth - that's where it eats stuff, of course) with the arrow keys. The dots all along the way are 'food' that increases your points. Avoid the weird colourful ghost/jellyfish stuff as they make you lose lives, but once in a while when you eat a large flashing dot the colourful ghost/jellyfish stuff will turn blue, and that's when you do eat them, because you'll get more points. Once it's game over, click Insert Coin to play again. It's completely free!

                        Watch this video example of a random guy playing PacMan!

Note that at 0:54 he pauses and waits for the right moment to eat the big dot.

Bloons Tower Defense

A real awesome game involving bloons (balloons) and monkeys (shooters). How to play: Buy monkeys and other weapons to defend the tower from invading bloons. If you lose all your lives (decreases each time a bloon manages to get past all defences), you lose. There are 4 Bloons Tower Defense games. Here they are:
