The Useless Web
- nateabele 14y agoI disconcur with the evaluation criteria. It took me to this website, which is anything but useless: http://heyyeyaaeyaaaeyaeyaa.com/ http://heyyeyaaeyaaaeyaeyaa.com/
- ht_th 14y agoAgreed. I got to play with http://www.koalastothemax.com/ http://www.koalastothemax.com/
- sdoering 14y agoThat one really stuck... 5 Minutes later, i was still staring at the screen and hitting reload for another round...
- bonobo 14y agoThat one was my favorite, I spent half an hour uncovering the picture of a kitten. Sadly it was not a koala as advertised. It's comparable to bubble wrap IMO.
- LefterisJP 14y agoI also got the same website. Damn it's stuck in my mind right now
- BCM43 14y agoFor those without flash, what does it do?
- aw3c2 14y agoPlays some stupid He-Man cartoon music video.
- bonobo 14y agoThis video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZ5LpwO-An4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZ5LpwO-An4
- tholman 14y agoIt actually checks for flash support, and removes any flash websites from the potential list... so its a good experience all-round.
- mmariani 14y agoWhere the internet ends? http://www.wwwdotcom.com http://www.wwwdotcom.com
- guimarin 14y agoendoftheinter.net and it never ends. there is always something beyond the end of the world.
- Stolpe 14y agoOk, that's it. It's now officially f__k this s__t o'clock!
- tgrass 14y agoPosted in my fb feed. A huge hit.
- arscan 14y agoBased on the handful of sites that it sent me to, I'd rename this "The Creative Web".
- sharkweek 14y agoThe internet is still pure magic to me. Sure I have understanding of the tech but the personality and connectivity is just overwhelming when I pause and really think about it. Sure there's plenty of junk, but it's all part of a huge overall societal benefit.
- jtl09 14y agoit at least can spam your web browser's history mark
- nathan_long 14y agoHilarious. It doesn't fit in with these sites, but my favorite useless site is still Beedogs: http://www.beedogs.com/ http://www.beedogs.com/ The best part is clicking for more beedogs repeatedly and reading what it says.
- sdeyerle 14y agoLoved this one - http://heeeeeeeey.com/ http://heeeeeeeey.com/
- p4bl0 14y agoDoesn't work for me (Firefox 10). But the list of URLs is available in the JavaScript here: http://www.theuselessweb.com/js/uselessweb.js http://www.theuselessweb.com/js/uselessweb.js.
- crisnoble 14y agoIf you want to got to all the useless sites with one button click: http://jsfiddle.net/crismanNoble/jjAaf/embedded/result/ http://jsfiddle.net/crismanNoble/jjAaf/embedded/result/ Warning: 1)Put headphones in. 2) Your computer might crash hard.
- sktrdie 14y agoInteresting what the http://isitchristmas.com/ http://isitchristmas.com/ site is doing. It's using websockets. Anyone can figure it out?
- bobbijvoet 14y agoMy console logs all people visiting the site, and also where they are from. The author also took the time to translate yes and no to various languages. I got 'Nee' for example, that's Dutch for no.
- majke 14y agoWhatever it does, it's using SockJS to do it :)
- jacquesm 14y agoI could have really used that in about '85 or so, unfortunately the web wasn't around. Family relationships were at an all time low and I simply didn't realize the date and showed up for work. The security guard informed quite clearly that I wasn't supposed to be where I was (at my desk, debugging some crappy COBOL program). I was wondering if I'd gotten the time wrong, never once thought to check the date...
- TazeTSchnitzel 14y agoUsed the Chrome Inspector. Looks like mouse movement tracking. It's bi-directional too, I see the frames of mouse movement from other people. I think perhaps this was supposed to show fake cursors of other people on the site, but it isn't working?
- halvsjur 14y agoThat looks like it. Too bad there's no websocket support in Firebug.
- motters 14y agoNot forgetting http://zombo.com/ http://zombo.com/
- ctdonath 14y ago"Strange how much human progress and achievement comes from contemplation of the irrelevant." - Scott Kim
- jacquesm 14y agoIf you're short on time don't buy his book inversions. And if you know someone who is short on time then don't buy it for them as a Christmas gift either.
- dexen 14y agohttp://HasTheLHCDestroyedTheEarthYet.com/ http://HasTheLHCDestroyedTheEarthYet.com/ <script type="text/javascript"> //Technically, this will be accurate... try { document.write("NO"); } catch(err) { document.write("YES"); } </script> IIRC, the /robots.txt (now sadly missing) used to read, ``the robots will not save you''.

- elimisteve 14y agoFrom the title, I was hoping to read a crushing indictment of web developers for mostly creating useless crap. Sadly, it's more like the opposite: a shiny button inviting us all to view useless crap.
- teeja 14y agoSome of those are definitely not useless to kids. Remember when you were a kid and some crabby old biddy gave you crap for 'wasting your time'? I do. As for adults and the web: How 'useful' is porno? (Same principle)
