Web designers RIP, Zude is here

zude web spaceSeems like someone has some kind of beef with web designers, or a passion to see more bad design online, but at least it seems like a cool service.

Zude is a new online service that lets people quickly and easily design their own websites. Through the Web 2.0 technology that Zude employs, people will be able to drag and drop content creating enhancements for the MySpace sites of the internet. This includes widgets, pictures, videos and images with the ability to resize, rotate and move the elements around the page.

Zude launches May 1st, and the scheduled fee for the service will be $25 a year for a blank customizable space. The premise for the service is great. It allows people that are not able to code and put together a website the ability to express themselves online, but are we headed to a geocities, MySpace, everything all over the place online world? Just as long as this service doesn't extend to the business sector, web designers should still be employable (we hope).

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.
