Classic Cat

[Horrible name + horrible logo] + horrible site design + awesome site = Classic Cat. Classic Cat is a directory with links to over 3200 free to download classical performances on the internet, sorted by composer and work. Seriously, that's over 3,000 free classical Mp3s. That's pretty sweet.

Ice Bricks


Seriously...who needs regular ice cubes anymore? The good news - they're for sale. The bad news...apparently you have to live in Europe.

Flash Forward

This is a conference for people to discuss and show off the things they are able to do in Flash. Check out the Past Winners section to see some sweet games, movies, motion graphics, typography, and more!

The Unseen Video


This site takes you location, finds the weather station closest to it, and then dynamically generates a music video using the weather of your current location! It looks like it basically just cycles the colors, "plants", and ambiant floating "things"...but its still pretty neat. Check out the live one, or also check out the various static versions, including the last one that shows various cities side by side!

Here's a shot of how the program configures the video:

iSee - Turn your [Free wink wink] Ipod into a Digital Camera!





check this out! Turn your iPod into a digital camera/recorder. This baby will set you back 250$, but what better way to pay for it than by using the money you saved getting a FREE iPOD!

(Sorry..shameless plug I know, but I @ least made the effort to show you something cool in the process!)

Varini - Try to Prepare Yourself.

No, not some lame chain letter, or survey, but rather my new favorite artist. Prepare your eyes to bleed and your brain to hurt.

Overview (in english)
[note: if the site doesn't work, keep trying, it will eventually]

Official Site

Quick Official Site Guide From My Surfing -
  • index chronologique - picture indexs, select a range, then a
    year, and then a picture (click on the last picture will "scroll the
    pictures over")

  • on the pictures - The first menu is actually the name and
    location of the work. In the second menu, "Ouvrir" will show
    you the art from another perspective. In the bottom menu
    the years will get you back to the gallery, and the "general"
    will take you back to the main page.

  • videos - videos, some will show you the work and how it lines
    up, just got to look about.

other than that just poke around and be amazed!

40 Things That Only Happen in Movies

40 Things. Such as:

  • 11. Any police officer about to retire from the force will more often than not die on their last day (especially if their family have planned a party). (Caveat: Detectives can only solve a case after they have been suspended from duty).
  • 29. One man shooting at 20 men has a better chance of killing them all than 20 men firing at once (it's called Stallone's Law).
