Infuriating Game

If you'd like to drive yourself completely crazy, try playing these games ... otherwise, i suggest you steer clear! Oh, and for the record, we did manage to complete them both (with a few hints & suggestions from friends ;) ) so if you're really struggling & need a clue, just let me know !

Truth or Fiction

Okay, I just thought a mention should go to this site ... I wish more people would use it to check the validity of all those mails they Forward to the masses telling about the latest cell-phone or atm fraud as well as many others !

http://www.truthorfiction.com

Also, I found another that is purely for determining real or "doctored" images from the Forwards that get sent round .... http://www.snopes.com/photos/

Montage-a-Google

This is pretty cool & one can have loads of fun with it. It basically does a google search for images to use based on your keywords & creates a picture montage from that.

UPDATED 25-07-2005: APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN REMOVED!

People are just weird. I'm hoping this is another spoof site like the Pets or Food one. I'm pretty much against the eating of animals that can't be farmed.
