Passive-Aggressive Notes, T.Y.P.O.R.G.A.N.I.S.M, and G2P Beta – Three interesting and fun sites to stop the boredom

Posted on July 13, 2007 at 2:53 pm

If you’re bored to death sometimes and just can’t figure out what the hell do to, check out these three interesting and fun sites to wake yourself up! I just found out about PassiveAggressiveNotes.com and I have to say that I am impressed with the idea behind it. It’s very simple, let people submit notes that they have seen posted around their office, in a store, at home, or wherever that come from an apparently very frustrated person!

Here’s an example of a note posted by a very frustrated phD who tries to teach the non-science people that leaving the window open on a window AC unit will actually make the room hotter and not colder!!! Hysterical!

This site should keep you laughing for a little while! If you get tired of reading passive-aggressive notes, you can also go to T.Y.P.O.R.G.A.N.I.S.M where you can upload a picture of yourself or a friend watch it be drawn in ASCII characters! You can then get the HTML page for your pretty ASCII face and post it on your web site or send it to friends in an email.

You can choose to do it in black & white or in color so that it looks a little cooler! But remember, it’s all characters and nothing else! Now if you’re STILL bored, then you need some more serious longer lasting entertainment such as music, videos, e-books, software, or phone ring-tones. So where you can get all of this stuff?

Check out G2P.org, a site that basically uses Google’s advanced search capabilities to find mp3 songs, video files, software applications and a whole lot of other stuff that is just sitting on the Internet but not easily found by performing a normal search. G2P runs through a bunch of the extra filters that you can use when you search in Google, such as filetype or inurl.

Simply type in your query into the box as you would a normal search, for example I search Linkin Park, and choose what you are looking for on the right. And your results will be actual songs, not just web pages! You can actually see the query he uses to perform the search:

intitle:index.of +”last modified” +”parent directory” +(mp3|wma|ogg) +”linkin park” -htm -html -php -asp.

Now that’s quite different than typing Linkin Park into Google by itself. Anyway, clicking on the thrid link in the results page led me to a directory on someone’s server that is full of Linkin Park songs:

The first two results didn’t pan out, one you had to still pay and the second one didn’t even load. But the third one got me what I wanted! The nice thing about this method of downloading songs and videos is that it’s not illegal and that’s because it’s available on the Internet for everyone and you’re not using a specific piece of software to download and distribute songs. And there is ABSOLUTELY no way anyone can track your downloads off the Internet in this way!

Hope you’re not as bored now!
