After a one week hiatus, here are this week’s links:
Finger Frenzy: Yet another online game. This one isn’t so mindless, though. The objective is to type the entire alphabet in order in as little time as possible. My first attempt was around 6 seconds and an hour later I had it down to 2.867 seconds. Shawn can back me up on this… I was sending him screenshots everytime I set a new personal record.
Funny Video: I feel bad for thinking this video is funny, but I just can’t help laughing every time I watch it.
Larry David Interview: My new favorite actor/comedian/producer/writer is Larry David, the co-creator of Seinfeld and star of HBO’s Curb Your Enthusiasm. He recently appeared on TBS’s “Earth to America,” a two hour comedy extravaganza about global warming and activism. You can watch the whole show and/or individual clips here, but Larry’s individual stand-up for the show was basically just a straight read of this article he wrote for Rolling Stone. It’s still really funny.
18 Body Tricks: Men’s Health Magazine has a cool article on “tricks” to teach your body, such as scratching your ear to rid a throat itch. Although the article is from Men’s Health, it’s pretty gender neutral. I’ll have to remember to cough next time I get a shot.
Google Video of the Day: A great time-waster with some funny/ridiculous videos.
Mouse-less Firefox: “Learning to use Firefox keyboard shortcuts to reduce your trips to the mouse can lead to a much more fulfilling web browsing experience, especially at those times that your mouse just isn’t doing the trick.” I love keyboard shortcuts… and so should you. If you don’t yet have the new Firefox release, version 1.5, grab it here. It has lots of improvements, including drag-and-drop tab reordering.
