The site also features Cat Dynamics, a site devoted to building a better, stronger cat after Fluffy's been involved in an accident. And there's Beep Me Jesus, which works like a Magic 8 ball, only better, 'cuz it's Jesus answering your questions.

While at Newgrounds, you may want to drop by the original Celebrity Assassin and kill some of your favourite pop icons. Unfortunately, you won't be able to see Teletubby Fun Land, which just got removed this week due to a threat by the BBC. I guess they didn't see the humour in Tinky Winky et al pimpin', whorin' and drinkin'.

What's green and red: Finally, the classic "frog in a blender" joke has made it to the Net, animated for the inner child in you. A 10-speed blender, in which floats a frog. You can slowly build up speed, watch as the frog spins round and round. Or, if you're in the mood for insta-gore™, you can just hit the 10 button to send the cute little froggy to amphibian heaven.

With over 4,500 drinks in the database, you won't be caught with your blender down as the Ambassador asks for a Wet Pussy.

Capital L of the week: Yes, yes, I know, there's plenty of crap on the Net. But once in a while, a certain crop of crap is worthy of distinction, or just pointing at and laughing. So point your browser to http://www.execpc.com/~mephisto/.

Battle of the bulge: Probably long overdue, the Hacker's Diet has arrived: how to lose weight and hair through stress and poor nutrition (www.fourmilab.ch/hackdiet/). Despite its tongue-in-cheek name, it's a serious project by a geek, teaching geeks to "hack" their bodies. Just do it.

Welcome to the Earth Edition of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (www.h2g2.com). The universe's greatest guide finally comes to our (mostly) harmless mudball.

The idea naturally follows the guide described in the books, relying on "researcher" entries. Anyone can register and become a researcher. The guide has editors who wade through the submissions, picking what makes the cut and what doesn't.

While visiting the site, you must check out the field reports from Archduke Leopold the Terrible (III).

A fun idea--and if the site ever hits a critical mass of participants, it may actually become useful guide.

Claiming "the courage to be ridiculous before god," the site lives up to its billing. Broken into sections of the narthex, nave, Sunday school, restroom and catacombs, there's some silly stuff all around.

As well, there's the usual panoply of topics: entertainment, style, lives, work, mayhem and wit. Nice added touch: an area for reader feedback under whatever you're currently reading.

>Inside, you'll find a good number of sections. Begin with the regular feature, usually a good read. And unlike all those other mags that kow-tow to the stars they love, Tag features the Celebs We Hate. You can play around with the amazing Sex Machine, if that tickles your fancy.

It's an entertainment stock market game; you trade with Hollywood Dollars. You've got your MovieStocks, which include films in all stages of production (from concept to release). There are StarBonds, through which you can finally own a piece of your favourite star. You can buy Options and gamble on the opening weekend winners and losers, or buy into a managed or indexed fund.

20-minute fun-o-the-week: Check out Blind Wino (www.blindwino.com), starring Drunk Driver and Ask Satan.

Everything is a communally maintained web database, where users participate in rating the information they find. The dbase is constructed from nodes, each featuring its own topic (the list of topics is too vast to describe, and it grows daily). On each node, there are a number of branching links to other related nodes. The more people who follow specific node-to-node pathways, the stronger the links become, and the higher their rating on the link list.

It's the kind of thing you have to see for yourself. It's a good concept, it's fun to browse through and you never know what you're gonna find.

Not too sure where to begin? Then visit The Furby™ Autopsy page (http://www.phobe.com/furby/) and all will be revealed. There you'll learn how to gut and skin your Furby™, with the end result being a much better, demonic cyborg-esque Furby™.

File under S for Strange: Been sitting on this for a while. It's just bizarre. Let me know if you figure it out. Sam Sloan's homepage: http://www.ishipress.com/index.htm

Content is updated daily, with plenty of quality features and columns covering a wide spectrum of topics. Sections include news, technology, arts & entertainment, books, media, people and comics.

Columnists you may recognize include Garrison Keillor, Camille Paglia and Susie Bright, among others. Definitely worth a visit every day or so. I guarantee you'll find something to pique your interest.

Good cop, bad cop: If you've been online for a while, you know what a problem spam can become. Well, here comes SpamCop (spamcop.net), sort of a neighbourhood-watch-meets-anti-spam-activism.
