Widget Box
If you have a personal website, blog, or even a Myspace page, you’ll want to check out Widget Box. Widgets are cool little gadgets you can add to your website by cutting and pasting a little code from sites like Widget Box. They let you do things like embed video games, movies, and time wasting applications onto your site. As an example, I’ve embedded one of my favorite games, Puzzle Bobble, into this blog post. There are thousands of widgets at Widget Box and just as many creative uses for them.
Elf Yourself
If you want to annoy and/or amuse your friends and family this holiday season, head over to Elf Yourself from Office Max and turn 1-4 people or pets into dancing, singing elves. Click here for an example I created using some staff mugshots from our newspaper, The Noblesville Daily Times.

While you’re at it, you may as well send them a Christmas joke or two. Here’s an old school list of holiday jokes hosted by somebody over at Cornell University. After that, you can let your kids send a letter to Santa and get a reply back at The North Pole. And if that’s not enough holiday spirit for you, then head over to All Things Christmas for, well, all things Christmas.
