Cruel
confinement

Voice jail: How’s this for a fun, geeky project. First, find some close friends who don’t mind suffering some temporary indignity for the sake of laughs. Next, get them to squish their faces up against a glass door as if they’re bugs who made the unexpected and undesired acquaintance of an SUV windshield at 100 km/h. Now, take a photo of the result with your mobile phone camera, and set it as their picture in your phone book. The result is your friends imprisoned in your phone just like at flickr.com/photos/stillframe/tags/itrapped/show/.

Human beans: Shake up a can of Heinz Baked Beans in real life and not much happens (as long as the can isn’t open.) But in this little Flash doo-hickey, it’s non-stop action. Saying any more would ruin the fun, so turn up your speakers and get ready to make a mess at www.simonpanrucker.com/beans.html.
