tweenbots

Filed under: Videos, Design, Internet

I got this link from a mailing list about an interesting concept. Basically it’s an experiment about putting something vulnerable and insignificant like a small robot with it’s final destination tagged on it and determine people’s response. Do they ignore it? Or interfere? The experiment takes place in New York, one of the well known busiest cities.

The results were surprising in that every tweenbot eventually got to their destination unharmed with random people’s help. Some just pointing the tweenbot to the right direction, some “saving” it from danger when it got stuck or was heading towards dangerous places like roads.

Line Rider - Beta

Found this pretty cool toy on deviantart called Line Rider

Please click “Play”. Don’t come back to me saying you “saw the fancy text” -__-”

There’s an updated and better version but requires you to install Microsoft Silverlight first.

At this moment, the video below is the highest rated one on youtube. There are many others that look better to me though. Some have colour and some have even more interesting tracks.

My classmate found this site from our lecturer: thisissand

Pretty cool site. I wonder how they programmed this. Basically every click throws in sand on the “canvas” and you can press C to change colour. It’s like those tourist sand bottle kind of thing but cooler!

I’m playin’ it

Filed under: Humour, Food, Internet, Games

Got addicted to a game again. Not good! Everytime it happens, I just stare into the screen for hours and miss all my appointments and datelines.

If anyone’s interested, this game is parody of McDonald’s. Uncreatively, it’s called "McDonald’s Videogame".

My classmate gave out the flash file itself so I could play it full screen. To play just for fun, go to this link here.

Took a few tries to finally get the cash going smoothly. I don’t think there’s an objective except to keep raking in the cash. Try hitting 100,000 bucks if you can emoticon
