Wordpress 2.2.1: Yes, I’m sure we were all hoping for a slightly more exciting WP development, but not all the versions can be fun. This one’s a bigfix, and should be downloaded posthaste, I say.

Sandbox Design Competition: I was going to enter this with a friend of mine and try a shot at that $600 first prize. The task is to design a customization entirely out of CSS for the Wordpress theme Sandbox, and the due date is July 29th. It’s very Zen Garden-esque, even though the template’s not exactly raw HTML.

Pimp My Safari: I never thought I needed plugins for Safari, but apparently there’s more than plenty around here. You can even help yourself to their orange logo.

Ratmaze 2: A long-awaited update by PixelJam has finally arrived. Ratmaze is the lesser known of PixelJam’s two games and was rather basic in the hunt-and-collect style. Ratmaze 2 actually has miniature tasks to collect the large cheese letters that spell “Ratmaze”, as well as sporting a timer that counts down. Pressure.

BayIMG: The owners of the infamous The Pirate Bay site are certainly spreading their interests lately. BayIMG is an uncensored image uploading site, as well as the cause for a bit of controversy. They also recently agreed to host a pedophilia-friendly site.

StepMania Online wiki: What you really need here is the setup. StepMania Online is an interesting development that allows versus online play. The downsides of this are that I didn’t know about it sooner and that I can’t seem to get the SVU to stop crashing.

Lebron James Etch-A-Sketch: What can you do with an Etch-A-Sketch? This guy can easily say “a lot”, and you’ll agree after viewing this three-dimensional, well-shaded depiction of NBA player Lebron James.

Dead Trees & G-Strings: You’ll have to pardon the title; this post is actually about an upcoming Damn Interesting book, filled with the brightest and best of all the articles on the blog. A 35 USD donation to the site ensures that you get one shipped to you as soon as the day it’s published.

Club Penguin: The ever-growing Club Penguin is a humorous scene for kids and teens alike to release their inner… penguin. Play games, buy pets, and just hang out.

CrossLoop: Let’s face it. Troubleshooting with your computer-savvy relative is worthless unless they can see what you’re doing. CrossLoop offers free screensharing and remote control, simply by typing in an access code. That’s a problem solved.

Lugaru: One wouldn’t normally think of murderous ninja rabbits as a topic for a video game, but that’s exactly what Lugaru is. Control the gray hare Turner as he avenges the deaths of his family and friends while unravelling a wolf conspiracy. Tracheotomy!

#adium-devl: The new channel for discussing Adium development. As you may know, version 1.0 came out not a month ago and everyone’s rushing to fix new tickets.

All About SP: By far the most heavily maintained and complete South Park episodes site out there. You’ll find 95% of all the episodes plus the South Park movie: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut.

Lugaru wiki: An uncannily helpful strategy guide to the curious game of Lugaru, this wiki comes complete with pictures of every attack, reverse, and stealth in existence.

Wordpress 2.1: In just 60 minutes, there have been over 1,200 downloads. What is it? It’s finally here everyone, WP 2.1 "Ella" has been released and it’s absolutely loaded with new features. Autosave, tab editing, sub-blogrolls, live spell checking and much more. As a side note, look for version 2.2 coming this April.

DarwiinRemote: Utilizing the Bluetooth connection of a Macintosh, DarwiinRemote lets you use your Wii Remote and Nunchuck attachment to control your computer from the palm of your hand.

South Park Create-A-Character: You probably aren’t suprised that South Park characters would be pretty easy to generate and randomize. With this Create-A-Character, you can design your own member of the sickly, morally-twisted crew. "Damn you, Kyle!"

#sonicfolle: Stop by if you happen to enjoy Sonic; we’re always looking for more people to participate in mature discussions… Okay, not really; we all have fun.

Trust Rank: Instantly check any site’s reputation by means of search engine backlinks, page rank, and “trust rank”, to keep away from spam. You may have to wait a while for screenshots, though.

Super Mario Wiki: A fair-sized wiki dedicated to Mario, Luigi, Peach, DK, Yoshi, Bowser… oh, you get the idea. There’s over 4000 pages on all the Nintendo gang, complete with a… newspaper?

AA-project: A plugin that allows you to run some programs entirely in ASCII; graphics and all. Strange but awesome.

H*R Games: The classic collection of Homestar Runner games. Cherry get! If you haven’t heard of these, you’re probably dead… or in jail.

#motas: An assistance channel for the infamous Mystery Of Time And Space game. No, it’s not bad to get help; we all get stuck.

Yugop: Bunches of miniature flash activities. If you run out, just look in the archives. So minimalist, but so awesome.

Uncyclopedia: The absolute parody in all of us, on one wiki. Anything you can praise, Uncyclopedia can make fun of with a completely random spin. It’s entirely inaccurate and completely hilarious.

Yahoo! Answers: A large, forum-style Q&A community where a point system ties together a loose hiearchy. Accuracy of answers not guaranteed.

The Pirate Bay: Not one, but thousands of full-version programs availble via this filesharing wonderland. A client such as BitTorrent is needed to expand the downloads.
