Weekly Website Wednesday: Vacuumland

This week’s website is a very strange community.

It was through this website that I learned that my grandmother’s old vacuum cleaner was actually a highly sought-after collector’s item.

If you want to learn more about your vacuum cleaner, this is the place to go.

Weekly Website Wednesday: Coloring Book Corruptions

This week’s website is missing a “u” in its title, but I still love it anyway.

It’s pretty funny. They even let you submit your own corrupted colouring book pages.

Weekly Website Wednesday: Hojamaka Games

This week’s website feeds into one of my horrible, horrible addictions.

hojamaka games link picturesHojamaka Games is a one-person game studio. At least, I think it is. The website is mostly in Japanese.

In any case, I’m horribly addicted to Manomo Sweeper, which is a hybrid between Minesweeper and an RPG, and I can’t stop playing it.

Go play Manomo Sweeper. Go feel my pain.

Weekly Website Wednesday: HOLWAGERKARAOKE

This week’s website is all about the joy of singing.

Their videos aren’t just karaoke, though. They also feature a bunch of computer generated imagery to spice things up.

They may not be the greatest singers, but the bring a genuine enthusiasm to all their songs. I greatly enjoy watching just how much fun they have while singing. It’s a pleasant contrast to all the angry YouTube channels.
