An interesting site. They photoshop the characters of movies to make them invisible (leaving their clothes on), and you have to guess what movie it is. And they are REALLY tough, but once you see the answers, you’ll say to yourself “Why didn’t I know that?”

Unfortunately they didn’t get away with it.

An annnoyingly addictive puzzle game that reminds me a lot of Rush Hour (of which online versions exist as well). Both are fun, but this is just much nicer looking and faster (I hate most Java-based games).

It’s actually REALLY well done, and the details are great, but the game is just as much of a pain in the butt as it was before. From b3ta.

I’m not huge into luxury cars, but if I won the lotto, I’d pick up the Cadillac Sixteen concept car ASAP.

You can’t beat a luxury car with 1,000 horsepower, with displacement on demand (meaning it can use 4, 8 or all 16 cylinders). That means a big ass engine that still gets 30 miles to the gallon on the hiways.

To quote the site, NationStates is a nation simulation game. You create your own country, fashioned after your own ideals, and care for its people. Either that or you deliberately torture them. It’s really up to you.

OK, you typography geeks out there will apprciate this. We all know that Helvetica has been around for a long time and is very popular, and Microsoft ripped it when they created Windows and called it Arial. The inferior typeface is now installed all over.

But can you tell the difference between Arial and Helvetica? It’s not easy, that’s for sure. I got 6 out of 10, and I know how to look at this kind of stuff. If you want a really in-depth article about the differences between the two typefaces, read this article. Just don’t read it until after you’ve already tried it.

Our buddy Ken got his blog running: http://www.breakingwindows.com/.

Ken is a big Mac user who just setup a beast of an XP machine. He and I have been chatting, and he’s really bringing to light some severely retarded Microsoft engineering.

Case in point: in order for the auto-complete to work in OutlookXP email To: field…you must first type the whole email in. Then it will work next time.

Basically it works JUST like the URL and form field auto-completes…which doesn’t make any sense if you already setup all your contacts in Outlook, with nicknames.
