Astoundingly creepy interactive stop motion doll. Totally lifeless and disturbing. I can't stop looking at it though.

The rest of the site is filled with other (slightly less) unsettling animations.

Imagine, if you will, The Onion written by inebriated victorian gentlemen. That, my friend, is what The Watley Review delivers on a regular basis. I especially liked that article about the manufacture of a new line of Dixie Cup modeled on the Holy Grail.

Watch in amusement as I attempt to explain evolution, natural selection and the faults with Intelligent design to what I can only assume are two teen-aged 733t hax0r5 on my blog. Hey, at least they have to think...

This one primarily caught my interest because it's here in Colorado. A few weeks ago, there were articles in several places about a guy out here, Alek Komarnitsky, who had hooked his Xmas lights up to the internet, and made a web site where people could control them remotely. Turns out that what he actually did we take a series of photos of his house at various times during the day, with the various "controllable" lights turned on and off, and serve up those pictures based on what the user would expect to see. He was found out when a reporter went to his house to interview him. Funny thing is, it probably would have been easier to just make the lights really controllable.

Wow, it seems that three children are getting coal in their stockings instead of a shiny new Nintindo DS. The parents of these horrible tykes have put the machines up on Ebay, where they are going for above market value. I hope that Sara now realizes how lucky she is...
