Exposing the danger of opportunity, internet access ... and too much time on your hands.
- 99 Rooms
We've never been able to decide what this was: art? a puzzle? a game? Turn off the lights, turn up the sound and pretend that this is the stuff that didn't end up in a David Lynch movie.
- George Masters' iPod Mini Ad
George had more than his 15 nano-seconds of fame with this one. Visit this Last Link web watch for more about this net phenom.
- GGG (Google Guessing Game)
Here's another one for the puzzle crowd. Phrases are displayed using pictures from Google's Image Search. Sounds easy - but is as difficult as it looks. Thankfully answers are posted along with comments.
- The Image Quiz
The challenge here is try and determine what question posed to Google's image search produces the dozen or so images shown. A great way to kill a few minutes ... or hours.
- Lite Brite
By the time they were handed down, a lot of the pieces were usually missing. Younger siblings often yearned for just a few minutes to play with one. Now through the miracle that is the digital age, they're available all day long and they always work. Relaxing, amusing and ... enlightening!
- The Mondrimat
It's okay. If the boss catches you playing with this one, you can always tell him you're experimenting with space, color and visual rhythm in accordance with the theories of Dutch neo-plasticist painter Piet Mondrian. This sort of brainwashing is encouraged ... at the Mondrimat.
- Mr. Picassohead
When Gil Grissom was growing up, he would have given an arm and a leg (but not an ear) to play with this one. Combining elements of police identification kits with the work of one of modern art's masters would have given the CSI Chief hours of pleasure that his Mr. Potatohead couldn't. At this site, you can do your own profiling while creating a masterpiece.
- Numa Numa
Okay. Everybody's a legend in their own mind. This guy's hoping to be a legend online.
- Requiem For A Dream
This one has been a Last Link favourite for years and we're glad it's still up and working. It's the official web site for the 2000 Darren Aronofsky film and it has had web folks scratching their heads as to how it works. Is the site reacting to your mouse, or does your mouse follow the workings of the site? And, do you follow the same path each time you visit? Try it out - your own mileage may vary!
- Slim Dunk
Talk about your Hoop Dreams! It's one thing to imagine doing this, but how did they talk this poor girl into thinking it was a great idea? It's actually an outtake from a viral marketing campaign covered here by the Last Link.
- ze's page
We've highlighted the best from his site in the section above -- but there's more!
- Zipdecode
There are a number of American zipcodes that we're familiar with up here in Last Link country. There's 90210 - famous for the TV show set in Beverly Hills, 99201 out of Spokane and 90125 (sorry, that's a Yes album). If there's a zipcode stuck in your head and you want to know where it is, then try Zipdecode and your face will light up just like the map at this site.

As the song says, take a trip and never leave the farm.
