Falling Sand
Sometimes the simplest sites are the coolest, such as Falling Sand, a page where different colors of sand drip down from the top of the screen and you use your mouse to draw lines and shapes to change the path of the sand. Play around with this for a few minutes and see what kind of crazy patterns you can create. Check it out here.
Jib Jab
Jib Jab is another one of those goofy, time-wasting sites where you can upload photos of your friends, family, co-workers, etc. to make videos of them dancing like idiots or doing other ridiculous stuff. Hilarity ensues. I tested the site out above using some photos of co-workers. Below, you’ll see one of Jib Jab’s sample videos, disco-dancing Clinton and Obama. The only thing I don’t like about the site is that there are fees involved in using most of their templates, although some of them are free, like the one I used above.
