I broke down and decided to try Angry Birds on Google+. Most surprising was how I was immediately compelled to try and outdo my contacts’ high scores. It didn’t take long until I moved up into first place.

Careful, World Wars is a great little flash game, similar to Risk, that may keep you coming back for more—it’s very addictive.

You’ve listened to backwards music, now check out Jump on Mushroom, a mind-bending video game that’s played in reverse. Trust me when I say, it’ll force you to rethink the way you learned to play Mario Bros.
I never read the instructions very carefully and didn’t figure this out until the level 1 (the last level): you can skip the rewind (or forward) sequences by hitting Esc. Good luck.

It’s a terrible time waster, but if you’re looking to kill your afternoon, try Whiteboard Tower Defense.

I tried out Google’s new Second-Life clone, Lively. Never having played Second-Life, I’m not so sure what all the fuss is about, but just for kicks, embedded below is my Lively virtual room.
Update: Lively has been shut down.

Here’s a fun distraction for your Friday: Sign in, wait for the green light, and type as fast as you can.
I did pretty well with my average 65wpm speed.
