Your flying hedgehog

Hedgehog Launch 2. Highly addictive, as all these Flash games are.

Things to do in Prague

Everyone I know who's been to Prague has loved it. This writer too.

The Orange iPhone is coming

The iPhone is coming to Orange - here's the press release, and if you just can't wait to tell them you want one, sign up here.

Friends in London. THAT Friends.

Guess where?

Just off Carnaby Street. For two weeks only.

Wallpaper for everyone within

Your desktop, your way, at Desktop Nexus. You could be browsing forever.

And this happened why...?

Steve Martin's "Unhelpful error message of the day".

119 seconds for a pint

Guinness is 250. May it live forever.

Recording audio on the move

I saw, played with and listened to the audio from one of these today. It's just the most amazing thing, and for anyone involved in recording audio, it's well worth a look.

Omega Centauri in higher-def

Hubble's had a re-fit, and the new photos are stunning. (Before, on the left, and after, on the right.)

How to slim down your Facebook

Stuff has a quick and easy way to cut your Facebook down to size.

Shutter chance

Some captivating pictures at Paul Snow's photo blog.

Nope

John Rentoul's Questions To Which The Answer Is No.

The best time wasters

Five great time-wasting websites, courtesy of last week's Gadget Show:

JacksonPollock.org - Splodges on screen. Just drag to create your splodge, click to change colour, and that's art.

Google Fight - Enter two words (ideally contrasting words) and let them fight it out on Google. The one with the most hits wins. Chocolate beats crisps by miles, then.

FutureMe - email yourself in the future

The Falling Sand Game. I have entirely not cracked this one yet.

Press The Space Bar. Just see how many times you can, well, press the spacebar, in the given time. The high scores are, surely, impossible.

Blitzing pictures

Transfer Jet. It's probably magic.

Journalism through the crystal ball

One vision of the future for journalists.

False and juicy reports

We know all about the Onion, right? It's a satirical "news" site in America.

That's "news", meaning "things which aren't true".

Oops.

The Beatles - back tomorrow

All the hype from tomorrow's Beatles re-issues, on Amazon's dedicated micro-site.

Melting cow popsicle

The ten coolest statues in the world (via Jack Schofield).

No island paradise

A range of linguistic traps outlined (as usual) in Saturday's Independent.

(The handy map is from canada.com's travel guides.)

Chase the day away

I haven't tried creating one of my own yet, but I love the idea. Prezi.com - an alternative to Powerpoint. It zooms, it shows the big picture and smaller relationships, and it doesn't get in the way of what you're saying.

(Recommended via Webscape from BBC Click.)

(The headline? It's a song.)

Hot in the city

Users of London's Tube may notice that the colours below aren't normal. It's a heat map. Is your line one of the Underground's hottest?

Sound and vision

Auditorium. This is just an amazing game. Move the round things to bounce light into the buckets and fill them with sound.

(I apologise making a travesty of beautiful design in that description. But at least you stand a chance of knowing what's going on.)
