Yahoo Ups Mail Storage

Screw Gmail. I just got a 100-meg quota on my Yahoo! e-mail account. Granted, it’s not Gmails 1-gig, but I already have a larger quota than that on my personal email account on this server. And my mail gets downloaded anyway — I don’t use IMAP. The primary reason I would want Gmail is so I could e-mail a large file to it that I needed to download on another person’s computer. I’d basically use it as a file storage medium. Yahoo! Mail, for $20/year, also offers 2-gig of storage.

Something for The Wish List

A $5,000 toilet that will massage, dry, and deodorize your stinky butt.

Random Website Generator

I know this site’s been around for a long time, and I could’ve swore I’ve linked to it, but looking through my archives, I never have. Anyway, for your viewing pleasure, the Random Website Generator. Just reload the page for new random (and sometimes ugly) design. If you want good designs all based on the same content, you must check out the CSS Zen Garden (and see what CSS can really do). Thanks Rick for the link.

Super Mario War

The idea behind this cool little Super Mario Deathmatch game is to stomp as many other Marios as possible. Network play is in the works. Link via Waxy.

Square One Tribute Site

Jesse and I chatted one time about a show on PBS that we loved when we were younger called Sqaure One. It was basically a Math show, featuring cool segments like Mathnet (a Dragnet spoof with math puzzles). So I knew that when I found this Square One Tribute site, I’d have to post it. Link via MeFi.

I Need One Of These

My wife always takes the remote, and ends up flipping through the channels like a mad man until proudly proclaiming later that there’s nothing on. “OK, maybe not to you,” I always think. “But I’m sure there’s some I’d enjoy.” Then it immediately gets either a) Turned Off, or b) Turned on to one of the shows on TLC (Trading Spaces, While you Were Out, etc… . ).

But I think all my problems would be solved if I just had the remote scrambler. Granted, that’s obviously a site designed for women — I mean, look at all the pink on the site, as well as the fluffy mouse or adoring boyfriend. Men are never supposed to be at the site, but it could be pink and covered with jewels and even made out of tampons, and I’d still use the damn thing.

Random Blog of the Day

This is one of those sites (unlike this one) that has a specialized type of content: People Falling Over. It’s full of stories and video of folks falling, tripping, or otherwise going from vertical to horizontal. Take for example this video of a horse smacking the crap out of a guy whose branding him.

Mini Arcade Games

Have a little doll house (or something along those lines) that you’d like to give its residents a little video game fun? Then just print out and fold up these mini arcade games.

This Game Will Piss You Off

This is one of this simple Flash games that’s so simple, yet so insanely difficult, it will really piss you off.
