A collection of weird and wonderful websites and obscurity to do online now-March 2014

Here's a awesome abundance of obscurity I recommend some of which may be both for entertainment or education or even entertaining education.

1. Typing Games. First up is Sesame Street Fighter, which is a fighting/typing game crossover of Sesame Street and Street Fighter, created from a inspiring image on devianART which improves your typing while playing a fighting game with modified loveable Sesame Street characters copying the appearance of Street Fighter fighters. It has simple topics such as animals to insane topics such as Russian cities. While being educational in typing and spelling is great for gamers of all ages, although is partially incompatible on iOS devices. Next up is Flappy Bird Typing Tutor in which the short-lived Vietnamese phenomenon is converted to assist your typing and spelling skills by typing as quickly as possible to travel the flappy, little bird through the pipes, which is alas also not compatible on iOS devices.

2. Brick Brilliance. With the recent release of The Lego Movie, everything Lego in March/February 2014 is awesome! First up is videos, firstly here's the lyric video of infuriatingly catchy Everything is Awesome by Tegan and Saga feat. The Lonely Island which is a humorously great song, which you'll have heard many times already if you seen the movie. Next up is a fantastic Simpsons Lego Movie crossover Couch Gag by French-Canadian stop-motion animator MonsieurCaron. Finally is Build With Chrome, in which on a collaboration with Google Chrome and Lego in which people build Lego online, which once submitted can viewed all across the world, there was been insanely huge models created ranging the USA to Malaysia.

3. 2048. 2048 is a Italian number game in which you slide tiles of numbers and the same numbers add and merge into one another and you try to create the number 2048. It is highly addictive but mathematically fun.

  1. The Build With Chrome is especially amazing, although if you want to get a good plot then they are going really fast, most of London has already been taken up.
