Putty World

2001-10-16 21:14:03+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Elizabeth passed along Crazy Aaron's Puttyworld, which at first glance just looks like just another e-commerce site selling a SillyPuttytm like substance called Thinking Putty, but look further. They have MPEGs of putty being shot out of potato canons, what happens when you hang putty from the ceiling ("It's like watching molasses run, only cooler!"). And no more of those silly little egg containers, you can buy this stuff in pounds! In cool metallic colors! Selling catfood on the web? Lame. Selling putty in bulk? That's the spirit that got me interested in the 'net.

Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
