Another nice game from Orisinals.

Merry Christmas!

Torch that can light fire

Here is a torchlight powerful enough, so that it can light up the substance on which it flashes!

This is a project being developed by a group of people, who aim to provide a laptop for a very low cost ($100), which will be durable, power-efficient and responsive and fit well as a learning tool for kids of poorer countries.

Google Map: Amsterdam jewel

This a real picture folks... this phenomenon in Amsterdam is large enough to be noticed from the space, or Google map!

This site features some of the most stunning and breathtaking images updated I have seen. The content is powered by a voting system open to all, and hence updated regularly.

Car drawn in MS Paing

Yeah, this sports car is drawn starting from scratch, in Paint that comes with Windows. No fancy stuffs, nothing.

Start jumping when the whistle blows, and reach the ground before the other three competitors. Oh, and don't forget to open your para suite. Sounds easy, huh? Well... judge yourself :)

All of these (whichever applicable) hold for me!

What is 78 x 23?

The author makes a point by asking the question, which I am sure all of you will appreciate. (Food for thought.)

Orbit

Nice game where you set a comet in motion amidst a set of planets fixed in space. Your objective: to place the comet thus, that it remains in motion till the blue timer bar runs off. I bet Newton would win this game every time if he played :)
Very addictive!

The Shell Game

Keep an eye on the ball as the pot containing it is being shuffled!

Who is looking?

Check out these cute looking (yes!) insects in this photographs. Well I never thought insects look cute, but this set of pictures made me change my mind.

Lunar Lander

Here's a remake of a game that you might have already come across in your life.
The objective is simple, to use the thrusters on the shuttle so that it can land on the various pods without breeching the safety limit velocity.
The original version was known to have caused quite a few missed appointments.

Dice Mogul

A nice little game of Monopoly with very cool effects like moving clouds and buildings which upgrade. Might help kill some of your time for those who like this kind of games :)

According to this article in BBC, in 50 years from now there will be hardly any sea fish left. Bad news for sea food lovers... and that also probably explains why the prices on sea foods are outrageous!
