Tweetgrid - Train yourself to absorb more information than ever before

This is a crazy info gathering tool. It consists of a grid of 9 Twitter feeds. Enter a term in each search element, lie back and absorb. It makes me feel like that robot from that film.... you know the one.... No. 5 is Alive....

Some strange experiments with Flash - A fun toy!

I can't be bothered explaining it. Just see it for yourself....


Wave Machine


Those crazy goddamn patterns.



Some multiplying blobs

The crazy interactive never Flash ending page

This lovely example of what Flash can do seems to go on forever. If anybody finds out if it does can you Twitter me. It contains loads of little interactive toys and funnies. My favourites are the breakdancing monkey....


The groovy ice-cream man....



and the yo-ing yo-yo-er....

Make funky music with the tony-b toy

This can produce some fun, sometime irritating and all the time cheesy music. It's a little child-like synth. It's dead easy to use and it will have you dancing around the living room.

Flash Music Toy - Tone Matrix, 808s, 909s and loads more, all in Flash.

This is possibly the most groovesome and funkalistic toy I have found yet (well, @alvinx told me all about it). Cubase for the pussy generation. Mess around with all sorts of digital musical wizardary, all from within a Flash box. If you don't know what you're doing, keep messing. When you get into it, the world of beeps is your oyster....

Tweet, tweet...

Warble

Generate a bus slogan - Yes - Kool, Sick and Funky

What more can I say....Amaze all your friends...This is my attempt. What do you think?

Home Run - How far can you drumble when you're stunk?



More highbrow entertainment here. The concept to these works of art is to see how far you can get this drunken young fella' before he falls over in a stupor. I managed to get him 45m.

Color Flip - Is this the most useless web toy yet?

Yes! Yes! Yes! Ladies and gentleman. Probably the crappest, yet most fun toy I have yet featuredon this site. You will enjoy this intensely for at least .....a minute. Just prepare to be amazed.

The Idiot Test - Are you a monkey brain?




This is a fun little test. You need to keep answering the progressively more difficult questions until you get one wrong and then you have to start the bloody thing all over again. I'm an average idiot....Can you beat me?

Tenori - On: Crazy 21st Instrument from Yamaha.

This isn't the usual free online toy I feature, but I just needed to show you this beast. I need one now! The site says "Media artist Toshio Iwai and Yamaha have collaborated to design a new digital musical instrument for the 21st century, TENORI-ON. A 16x16 matrix of LED switches allows everyone to play music intuitively, creating a "visible music" interface."

Bit expensive though, Might try to make one one day, like the one aM lab made.
