I've been collecting links for the past week - a nice variety if you need a break from those spreadsheets and data input fields:
- Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest 2008 Results What do you mean you don’t know what the Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest is.. It’s an annual competition pitting single, original, previously unpublished sentences against each other to find the best/worst of their breed – mostly the worst.
- How Many Countries Can You Name in 5 Minutes? You have to be able to beat my 57.
- The Traveler IQ Challenge
- Large Hadron Collider nearly ready: whoo hoooo!!
- Women's Olympic Fencing
- Must have iPhone App
- Olympic Medal Tally through the Years: dunno about you but I love me a good data visualisation
- Interactive Music Video made without cameras by the Worlds Most Interactive Band
- Deafness and the User Experience
- Death Star over San Francisco
- Do-it-yourself Star Wars
and for you pocketmakers (yesterday's task) out there - Make a snowflake
