PRODUCTIVITY UPDATE

It turns out you can make your own productivity-enhancement applications, according to the folks at this site, who claim they made this game in under 60 seconds (a claim this blog totally believes). "Dave Barry Escape" is a very realistic simulation of what happens when this blog is flying around over South Beach pursued by entities. This happens almost every night.

THANKSGIVING IS COMING

Can we enhance our productivity and do something good at the same time, this week?

October 05, 2007

WHAT WE HATE ABOUT BLOGGING

What we hate is when people send us impossible productivity enhancers with comments such as "My personal best is 111.197 m" when we very rapidly determine that our personal best (after a frustratingly large number of tries because he seemed so enthusiastic about it) is 6.32 m.

SPEAKING OF HAMSTERS

YOU HAVE NOTHING IMPORTANT TO DO TODAY, RIGHT?

So see if you can get this site (thanks to Claire "Spare Time" Martin) to work. I tried tapping in (My Baby Does the) Hanky Panky by Tommy James and the Shondells, and it responded with the following songs (I am not making any of these songs up): Can't Stop (Red Hot Chili Peppers); How High the Moon (Les Paul and Mary Ford); Walk This Way (Aerosmith); Take Me Home Tonight (Eddie Money); Pour Elise (Beethoven); Norwegian Wood (The Beatles); It Had To Be You (Harry Connick Jr.); 1985 (Bowling for Soup); Danny Boy; and Super Mario (Nintendo).

WE KNEW IT WOULDN'T TAKE LONG

But this is fast.
