Snake: YouTube Edition

Everybody with one of those classic monochrome Nokia phones would know Snake, that game where you control a snake going around the screen consuming apples which in turn makes the snake longer and longer and making it harder and harder to consume more apples. It was quite useful when you’re waiting and bored.

Now if you’re watching YouTube and you have extremely slow Internet connectivity (like when you’re using Sun “Broadband” Wireless) you will be waiting and bored a lot. Worry not, as I discovered just today, the cool dudes at YouTube apparently programmed in Snake in their Flash-based player. Just press any of the arrow keys when the rotating buffering animation comes up on the player screen. Have fun!

Swimming!

Last week, we went swimming but we weren’t able to take videos. Today, we were able to take videos using James’ waterproof Sanyo Xacti videocam.
