Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog
Last chance today to see Dr Horrible for free, you won't regret it.

What do NASA engineers do in their free time?
Why, design their own Moon rocket, of course!
Apparently tired of the official space program, a group of scientists and engineers at NASA are designing their own, in their own free time and with their own resources. This is how space progresses!
Scary sounds and stories
Mp3 versions of old scary stories (some read by Boris Karloff himself!) and a collection of spooky sounds, to scare little kids (or players!)
Who's killed Hitler again?
Time travel is possible, and people keep going back to kill Hitler. But that appears to be a fixed point in time, and it cannot be undone (otherwise time-travel would not be invented). In the style of a wikipedia editors page, this is the time-travellers discussions.
Sound on salt
Cymatics is the study of the effects of sound waves in physical objects. In this case, salt, and it's really cool the way the waves are represented. Beware the the noises get very high-pitched in the video, so you might want to mute it half-way!


Happy Moon Landing day, everyone!
