Weblife week four

Computer Mouse
Thursday, 1st November 2007
Every week Weblife scours the web for the most useful, strange, fun and amusing websites, videos and games, and other software around. Simply click on the name to be taken to the relevant web page.

This is a fun little puzzle game that, although very easy at first, becomes rather challenging in the later levels. Like all puzzle games it can quickly and easily become addictive, so don't start playing it if you've got a deadline coming soon.

Splashup is a web-based photo editor. Although not quite of Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro standard, this software offers surprising depth, can be used on any computer any time and, best of all, it's free.

Probably not for everyone, but if hearing the tunes from the games you played as a kid makes you long for the good old days and you're not afraid of expanding your musical horizons a little, this could be the site for you. You'll find remixes of tunes from the likes of The Legend of Zelda, Sonic the Hedgehog, Donkey Kong Country, Final Fantasy. Just a health warning mind: a lot of it has been turned into rather generic techno.

According to real Mac fanatics the Apple online store is the shop of the week every week, but with the recent release of the 'Vista Beater' Leopard operating system and the imminent release of the iPhone in the UK, now is an especially good time to have a look around and see what you may fancy.
