I sometimes get into a 'How can I waste some of my precious time on the internet' moods, instead of doing REAL work...anyhoo...so list away...weird little corners of the net.

I'm going to start with this one.

Click it On!

Where you can turn on lights and turn them off! All from the comfort and safety of your own home! Wonders never cease.... ;¬D So, please list just the GOOD ones!

I like the idea of clicking on a link for your home to activate say a kettle so when you get in you can get a nice cup of tea. It is pretty bizarre though I must say.

A good way to prevent abuse of prisoners by the gaurds! Unfortunately it didn't work for me though.

Actually this might be a good way to prevent break ins to your store or business too, by having a live webcam. Chances are that someone somewhere will always be watching, and if you advertise the fact...

Sam, is that the webcam that didn't work for you, or the principle of the thing, meaning you got abused by prison guards and the whole thing was broadcast live all over the world?

Can't say this is a weird corner, but I can call it a weird bridge. This is what we call the Blue Bridge between Kennewick & Pasco, Washington. We are always having a fender bender on this bridge, usually between the Pasco to Kennewick side. I travel this bridge at least 4 times a day, to work, home for lunch, back to work, and home at the end of the day. Sometimes more. The view is on the Pasco side, and traffic can be bumper to bumper 2 or 3 times a day. The cam was set up for aggresive drivers, which by the way, I'm not. Check it out, you just might be able to see a wreck in progress. If not, I'm sure you will be able to see the back to back traffic around 3:30 - 5:30 PDT...........

Go to asdf.com.

And I have to say, I loved the trolley spotting site! Wouldn't you know, I cross this bridge 4 times a day to go to work at none other than a Supermarket. LOL
