Fun with blasphemy: The Church of Google
The Church of Google is a humorous attempt to demonstrate that Google is about as close to a deity as you're likely to come across outside of you know, your regular church. Since the site is clearly a joke, we don't expect to get struck by lightning for writing about it, but if you don't see any new posts on the site tomorrow, please contact our husbands, wives, parents, and children for us and let them know we loved them very much -- just not as much as a gag religion website.
The religion of Googlism was founded by Matt MacPherson, a Canadian who claims to have proof that Google is kind of godlike. For example, in 2005, a minister within the church miraculously received an A on a paper written at the last minute with the help of Google.
The search engine is as close to omniscient as anything else on the planet, with an index of 9.5 billion web pages. And Google remembers everything, thanks to page caching.
There's even a religious holiday on September 14th, the day Google.com was first registered. New converts will have missed this year's holy season, but you have a whole year to think up ways to celebrate next year.

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
