Great time wasters (also, cool applications of code)

Okay, so I've been pretty caught up in my NaNoWriMoing and pretty useless to this blog, but I stumbled across several cool sites this morning:
WORDCOUNT
10x10

oooo ! i really like the word count thing.
i found green #671
interestingly with its next of kin (loosely used) it forms "green students despise june knowledge"
how prophetic.

i searched for kevin. WAY down there it was.
i then did it a few more times to assure my presence in the 'history' and went into query count, the one that searches how wordcount is used. it was hit 302, right next to 303- sara.
hmm.
i think i'll keep searching for my name and see if i move in the list. if I do, maybe i'll program a quick javascript 'hammer' to move myself to the top of the list tonight.
that being said, i'm not convinced i want my name at the top of the list with the 'common' searches :)

wow baby! it worked.
i got a mouse recorder program and just drove it around about 25 times, and i moved up to 99!
cool.

oh the joys of having an uncommon name... I'll never find alodia on key chains, magnets, mugs, undies, or wordcount.

i'll get my permament marker and write your name on your tag so other people in this place don't get confused which underwear is yours.

wow uh, i was just hoping to find a pair of underwear for alodia that had her name on it since it saddened her. so i search google for alodia underwear and came up with the top hit being the nerdy tales post about kev and alodia seeing someone in church digging for the underwear. hahhaa.
so sad, i guess alodia is right, there is no underwear for her.
