MC Hammer customizes his MySpace with Snap Layout

by Chris Gilmer Oct 11th 2007

Tired of poorly designed MySpace pages? Spread the word about SnapLayout.

This handy MySpace layout editor allows users -- even MC Hammer -- who have no idea what HTML is the chance to create something special with their MySpace accounts. This is just the beginning of a long and arduous journey to rid the web of bad layouts, but SnapLayout is definitely on the right track.

With the online tool, users can easily change colors and layouts using a drag and drop style interface. Color palette's can be chosen so that proper color theory is adhered to, text styles can be implemented and page layouts with backgrounds can be set. Widgets like YouTube, Google Video, Pictures and other embedded codes can easily be inserted by dragging and dropping into their desired areas on the page. Sections in user's layouts can also be dragged and dropped to new areas within the design as well.

When your design is complete, click publish and voila, one less bad MySpace layout. Sweet!

Civiballs is a beautiful, soothing physics puzzle Time Waster

I have an absolute weakness for physics games, and while Civiballs isn't the strongest physics-based game, what it lacks in the physics department it makes up for a few times over in style and fun.

In Civiballs, you are presented with a few colored balls, and your goal is to get those balls into the same-colored urn on the level. The "civi" part of Civiballs is that there are 3 sets of levels to play, each representing a different civilization. While the civilization doesn't affect gameplay, the artwork for each level is beautifully themed to it's appropriate era.

To play the game, you are given only one tool - a sword with which to cut the chains that are holding the balls. The puzzle part of the game is in figuring out what order, and with what timing to cut each chain. Do it right, and all the right balls end up in the right urns, with no stray balls entering an urn (a no-no). Do it wrong, and you get to start over again.

Civiballs is not terribly deep on gameplay; the entire game can be completed in about 15 minutes. But if you enjoy this type of game, it will be a very enjoyable 15 minutes.
