3) Doodie.com and Atomfilms.com

http://www.doodie.com or http://www.atomfilms.com/
Not a website you should visit if you ar esensitive to sick humour or vulgar jokas. Visit on your own risk. Apart from the animation of the day (which you can download more of) there are also other filmlinks on the website.

4) Geeklove

If you are a real computer-fanatic, visit

NOTE you need Java (and on certain pages a Flash-plugin) in your browser.

Have fun.

10) Easter Eggs

Easter Eggs in the computer business means that an application has hidden functions. It could be nonsense functions (like the alien in QuarkXPress' who shoots away at selected frames on your page with an antiquated weapon with a highpitched sound - in QuarkXPress 4 there are even two different aliens), or they show pictures of those who developed the application, or, like in Photoshop, shows an electric cat at certain shortcuts. There is a whole website dedicated to this kind of information, that is where the Easter eggs are in different applications and how you can reach them and enjoy them.
