Line Rider
Forgot to post this little gem that Cindy emailed me yesterday: Line Rider.

According to the Line Rider page on Squidoo (which has a bunch of sample video clips):

Line Rider is not a game but a toy according to the author. Basically you take a pencil and draw curves and lines on a white background. You can then press play and it launches a guy on a sled into your line drawing. The sled slides down the lines. If you make them too steep the guy crashes. If you make them too flat he just comes to a halt. If you make them just right you can get a crazy rollercoaster going on.

It’s quite amusing. Check it out.

    Quite an amusing little distraction. The thing that I found the most amazing was the link to all the videos on YouTube that people have posted from “playing” it.

    Some people have an awful lot of spare time on their hands…
