WATCH: People Getting Puppies for Xmas

Consider this a test: Watch this video twice and if you don’t feel all warm and fuzzy something is seriously wrong. Seriously.

MAKE: Any Site LOL

Above is what the last few days of Zoomdoggle look like in LOL Cat-a-vision. Turns out you can make any site LOL by putting the code http://lol.ianloic.com/feed/feeds.feedburner.com/ before the name of any site that uses Feedburner. Fun, right?

PLAY: Bullseye Darts

Finish this sentence: Bullseye darts is…
A. Simple.
B. Mesmerizing.
C. Frustrating.
D. Fun.
If you guessed E. All of the above, you got, well, a bullseye. There’s a reason we’re bringing it back. Click the pic to get the game.

2011: Happy New Year

That is all. Yup.

WATCH: Cutting Edge View

The camera was duct taped to the end of a sword. The footage is soon to be duct taped to your brain. It’s just that fun. And in related news, I’ll be skipping town for the next few days. Keep your eye on this space though. Coming soon: Video of me swinging cameras on a beach…

USEFUL: The Awesome Highlighter

Want to send someone to a specific spot in a web page? Awesome Hightlighter lets you do that. You highlight the section, they give you the link. There’s even a Firefox add on so you can highlight straight from your browser. How fun is that?

Many thanks to Neevy Hadar for sending it in.

MARK YOUR CALENDAR: Line Up


WHEN:
From now until Jan 16th
WHERE: NYC’s Clic Gallery, 255 Centre St
WHAT: Remember Philippe Petit, the Man On A Wire who walked a tightrope, strung in secret and without permit, between the World Trade Center towers? He recently taught an tightroping Master Class at the Streb Lab in Brooklyn. Photographer Victoria Dearing was on hand, shooting from the shadows. This show combines her shots and his drawings. How fun is that?

WATCH: Dough Acrobat Nino Coniglio

US Pizza Team member Nino Coniglio. Speechless. Sad side note: The Brooklyn Pizza-spot he owed from which he often stunned patrons with fun, impromptu shows, Pizzeria del Corso, looks to be closed for good. Bummer. Nino, let us know if there’s anything we can do (did someone say fundraiser?).

WATCH: Cat In Hat

From the title you think you’ve seen it before, right? You haven’t. Unless of course your house pet likes playing dress-up and mugging for the camera, in which case, you’re right, you have.

Thanks to everyone who sent this in yesterday (I counted at least three, but am still playing catch-up on Zoomdoggle’s holiday email).

QUICK: Take The Goonies Quiz

Hey you guys! Who doesn’t love The Goonies? It’s a fun movie… and this quiz is one of Mental Floss’ top of the year. I got 6 of 10. Ready to see how you stack up? The game starts after the jump.
