Cultspace: Because MySpace isn't enough of a cult already

CultspaceFeeling a little emptiness in your life? Is that space not being filled by MySpace, Orkut, or even Fuzzster? Try Cultspace, a new social networking hub for would-be cult leaders.. In case you've never started a cult before, Cultspace makes it easy: Just create an account and give your cult a name. Other Cultspace users can then read your cult's profile and religious texts and interact with it. You can approve or disapprove of other cults, declare war on other cults or make alliances, and rate them on a number of criteria (Good and Evil are mysteriously absent). Of course, the Cultspace FAQ takes every opportunity to emphasize that Cultspace is for parody and make-believe only.

Is Google really a Cult?

You might think so given its numerous hardcore followers. Like me. That is just one of the many mysterious surrounding Google.

Many people thrive, and live daily on Google's search platform, and many product offerings like Google Earth, Google Maps and Gmail. They do nothing but speak the many praises of what Google is doing for the world, and wait, rather impatiently, for the next new upcoming beta release for that new Google offering.

I don't know if this is an upside from the eyes of Google, or not, seeing as how the majority of its cash comes from its advertising platform, and not its t-shirt sales, but Andrew Orlowski asks the question about whether Google is a cult or corporation? He is having difficulties deciding, and came to the conclusion that Google may seem to have a cult like following. They even hire individuals into the company that have a cult like mentality, and do nothing but praise Google, and obey its every word.

With all of Google's loyal followers, I don't think we have any worries of this ship sinking anytime soon. Google, and its cult following are in it for the long run.

The World's Hardest Game 2.0 - Time Waster

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, ...
