Daily time waster

Each Friday, George posts links to YouTube in an effort to waste your time. I think this is selling you short. In a bid to improve the service, I am going to introduce a daily time waster. First up:

Read at Work.

The website looks like a fake Windows desktop. Short stories, poetry and novels are rendered in Power Point presentations, so you can click and read the works of Tolstoy, Twain or Orwell, all while looking like you are working up the third quarter numbers. Hint: Hit ESC to exit.

An aside: I just saw Andrew Pyper, my co-blogger for the week, is in hair and make up, so he should make an appearance shortly. His foundation was looking a bit orange for my taste, but I understand his point that appearing on a computer screen can flatten the features. Watch this space.

    darn it all. my work internet protectors deemed that that website looks too much like ‘entertainment’ for me to be able to see it.
