Read on and get time wasting…

BFXR

Intended for creating noises for open source games, BXFR is essentially a really cool little browser-based synth. Sure, it’s no iPad 2 Garage Band set up but it’s pretty darn fun to mess with.

Broaden your horizons, or just pick up interesting factoids to confound and fascinate your friends. Make it your homepage, absorb the material and turn yourself into the office know-all in no time.

Attachments.me

This is a really handy little tool which scans your email for attachments and shows them in an easy to navigate grid which is also searchable. If you’ve got attachments you’d rather not display, it’s simple to hide them to avoid embarrassment!

I’m not sure which I’m more obsessed with: replaying all the cruddy little handheld one hit games from my childhood within the confines of a web browser, or looking at the Soviet knock offs of Game And Watch you can also play. If this doesn’t reduce you to a gibbering, nostalgic manchild, you’re far more mature than us.
