5. Public Domain Clipart

   You could browse this extensive collection of over 20,000 copyright-free clipart images for hours. It is stated the images are in the public domain, which means you can edit them and/or use them for personal or commercial interests. Have fun, there’s a great collection here.

6. World’s Greatest Android Project

   You’ll either enjoy or be creeped out by this website. Probably both. Robotics are serious business, and many different types from various corporations are written up hear. I find the female-looking robot a little disquieting, but I wonder if she’s single?

7. Air Force Test Game

   Here’s a great simple-yet-addicting game. Keep your red square away from the moving blue bars and the black walls for as long as possible. It’s called the “Air Force Game” because, as the website says, this game is used by air force pilots for working on their dexterity. Give it a try, or many; this game will make your work day go by that much faster.

8. Every Thursday a Theme!

   To quote the website, “…We propose just one day a week, Thursday, be set aside for themes not quite so depressing and accusatory. Below is our preliminary calendar, and a handy link where folks can provide suggestions for additional themes. None of which should require anyone to donate money, wear a ribbon, sport a rubber bracelet, or give up a Saturday… ” What these brilliant people are doing is making every Thursday a unique holiday or remembrance. Now you don’t have to worry like non-Thursday events like Easter or Christmas!

9. Weird and Silly Road Signs

   Here’s a great list of, yes, weird and silly road signs. I personally appreciate the “There May Be Trouble Ahead” electronic sign. Say, thanks for the warning!

10. Italian Spiderman

    Video

    No weekly waster would be complete without a strange, often disquieting video at the end. Here, for your viewing pleasure, is “Italian Spiderman”.Now that’s what I call a prime example of a spiderman! Smoking, compulsive eating, and other bad habits don’t seem to stop him. He’s amazing and he’s Italian.

So ends the fourth issues of “Websites to Waste Your Week”. May it bring you enjoyment at work and reduce your personal productivity!
