Vsauce I’m Jake and if I don’t survive this episode…bury me with my money.com because
I’ll probably get a heart attack just looking at the Cheese and Burger Society, a website
that features 40 different glorious recipes for cheeseburgers and each one is deliciously
described by Patrick Warburton’s golden voice.
They all look so beautiful, but let’s really wet our appetite with some more DONGS.
Things you can Do Online Now Guys.
How Big is Snapchat?
a website that gives some statistics on the service like the fact that every second almost
8,800 photos are shared or how it would take you 10 years to view every snap from the last
hour.
Now that we’ve found out how big snapchat is, let’s find out how well you can hear
audio quality.
You’re presented with 3 versions of the same song by artists like Jay-Z, Coldplay
and Suzanne Vega.
Using your ears, decide which audio clip out of the 3 is Uncompressed audio..
I personally only got 2 out 6 correct so I’ll let out my frustration with Crossfade, where
you mash up different clips from YouTube picking one as the video source and the other as the
audio to create something as life changing as this.
If you need help finding background music try Magic Transistor a website where you use
an old transistor radio to listen to interesting and rare musical recordings.
In addition to digitizing out of print vinyl, they also accept mix tape submissions from
listeners.
Now that the radio is working it’s time to plan the next road trip with Roadtrippers,
Just put in start and end locations, what kind of things you want to see along the way,
and then select the stops you want to make.
If you can’t decide where you want to go use Boll, a website for crowdsourcing polls.
Simply ask a question, provide the answers, and then let the internet do the rest.
hrrrmmmmmm tough question…hey, where are you going don’t try and avoid this important
question you Flipping Ninja, a game that has your ninja square body jumping around using
magic to change places with a mirror image of himself.
collect stars and keys to achieve perfection.
I don’t really have a clever transition for this one uhhh so impromptu Type Drummer
solo!
Just be sure your fingers hit the right keys cus you don’t want a Typo.
A website that takes any sentence you write and assembles the words with pieces of text
from historical documents, journals, and maps from the National Library of Poland.
It also works great for ransom notes.
Hmm, it’s missing something though...I’ll just use Pixlr to enhance it.
Pixlr is an in browser app that works a lot like photoshop.
The program is very comprehensive offering you a lot of the tools you need to get the
job done.
There, perfect.
Now onto my next project, the LOTR Project.
It has information on all things related to middle earth, like comprehensive family trees,
statistics on dwarf lifespan, or interactive maps that illustrate where certain characters
were at different points in time.
If you need a link to the past there’s always the Zelda Live Map, which lets you look at
a complete map of Hyrule with moving characters and monsters.
Hey look there’s Link!
You know this map really reminds me of My Uncle Who Works for Nintendo.
A text based horror game that…makes me afraid to play pokemon ever again…
Man I need to calm my nerves with Finding Home a chill audiovisual journey in which
you move a ball of light over a changing landscape.
and since you’re thoroughly chilled now would be a good time to Make a Flake, use
your digital scissors to make paper snowflakes, save your designs and even download snowflakes
that other users created.
Now that you’re used to the snow lets go Scaling Everest.
Scroll from sea level up to the summit of Mt.
Everest, all while learning interesting facts.
But why stop at the top of the mountain?
Shoot for the stars with The Bounce, where you play as a giraffe who is trying to jump
his way to the moon, collect stars and avoid asteroids.
I could listen to this song forever... but instead of avoiding asteroids be one in The
End of Us, an experimental game that was designed to evoke feelings of friendship and attachment.
Make some new friends with ScribbleGrid where you draw whatever you want inside of a cell
on a larger grid.
You can navigate the grid to find a private spot for yourself or add to someone else’s
creation, but what’s also cool is that each cell acts as a chatroom, allowing you to talk
about your work.
After making art, collect some in neon mob where you collect and trade digital art prints.
Open packs to receive prints from a series, and propose trades with others to snag those
rare ones.
If you’re into art, maybe you’d like some Mozart…Vs THE FUTURE!
a game in which Jean Pierre goes back in time to kill mozart and prevent the french revolution.
Double jump and slice your way to victory, because no one can stop you from writing your
opera NO ONE!
You will need patience to solve the puzzles in Drench a puzzle game in which you must
work to change the entire grid into a single color, but if you really like that blocky
aesthetic then turn all of your photos into legos with Brick a Pic.
Just upload a photo and then turn it into a blocky triumph.
You know what else is blocky and triumphant?
8-bit Dash, an internet dashboard that uses 8 bit graphics to help direct you to great
gaming websites, awesome internet tools, all while little 8 bit characters fight each other
in the background.
But this is 2000...what year is it again?
2015!
we need 3d graphics like in swooop, a game where you fly a plane around the country side
collecting gems and listening to some awesome music.
I also like it because it reminds me of Pilotwings 64.
Ah, memories.
