Harpooned!
Interesting, exciting and downright odd things doing the rounds on the web this week:
- Harpooned (subtitled Japanese Cetacean Research Simulator) is the best game I've played in a long time. With tongue firmly in cheek, your hunting vessel speeds through the Southern Ocean, collecting whale meat for scientific study but watch those pesky protesters and TV news crews! (Thanks, Osocio - I laughed like a drain.)
- A nightclub in San Francisco has been going green for several years, and has plans for a piezoelectric dance floor that converts the conga into current.
- Speaking of clubs, the world's first vegan strip joint has opened in (where else?) the States.
- 'Go unscrew yourself' demands Unscrew America, a violently happy website doing its bit on the light bulb front with a user experience that's like a Yellow Submarine flashback.
Offshore wind alone could supply our electricity needs three times over. Make the switch to renewable energy by installing wind turbines on the designated hotpsots. Beat the clock and watch out for the floating oil drums - good luck!
