MagMyPic - your photo on fake magazine covers

MagMyPic

Forget about paying street vendor prices for the magazine covers with your face on them like you see in Times Square or other tourist haunts. You can create them yourself at MagMyPic, which has realistic fake magazine covers ready for you to grace them with your uploaded image.

After you upload your photo you can choose from several magazine covers such as People, Vogue, National Geographic, well you get the picture. After you select the cover size (small or medium), you're done and you can post it to a slew of your favorite sites like Facebook, Blogger, etc. or just grab the code and embed on your website. No sign-in required.

MagMyPic is an affiliate marketing campaign to help sell actual magazines, as in those print kind. A link to purchase magazine subscriptions is available, but we bet you'll just bypass that.

Forumwarz - a potentially offensive time waster

I pwn UAfter spending the better part of an hour on Forumwarz I still can't decide if it's just sick or if it's kind of fun. It's a bit like a car wreck on the highway. I know I shouldn't be looking but I can't quite turn away.

It's sick, it's twisted, it's the internet on it's worst level and darn it, it's kind of fun. At least for a little while.

Forumwarz is a parody role-playing game that takes place on the internet - or at least the Forumwarz version of it. Your goal is to complete missions that are given to you through a mock up of GoogleTalk called Sentrillion.

Your first "friend" is ShallowEsophagus who begins giving you missions to pwn various forums by being a troll. Depending on the character type you are assigned at start up, you have tools like drooling on the keyboard or bashing your head on the keyboard that you can use to destroy forum threads and eventually, pwn a forum.

Future missions involve buying illegal software from the Russians, pwning more difficult forums and other internet oddness.

Completing missions gives you cash, called Flezz in game, and items that you can pawn or use in other missions. The game is NOT for those easily offended. It's crass, coarse and there are frequent f-bombs in the fake chat sessions.

This is also a game for a more mature audience as it requires you to shop at the Drugs R Fun store to get various concoctions to improve your playing, engage in certain cyber activities to get more Flezz and just generally use a more adult perspective.

If you can get past that, here are the more enjoyable and time-wasting aspects.
