A Game, A Video, and A Comic


Try to stump the computer in this online version of Twenty Questions. Think of a person, place, or thing, then answer up to twenty questions. There are versions for Harry Potter, Disney, Star Trek, and the Simpsons. http://www.20q.net/ You can even use kind of obscure people like John or Hank Green of the Nerdfighters.

Never heard of the Nerdfighters? Two brothers decided to forbid all textual communication with each other for a whole year and made videos for each other every other day. They developed a following of people who celebrate being nerdy and geeky in a lot of ways. They have an evil baby orphanage, secret siblings, projects for awesome, and Hank writes amazing songs about nerdy things. Their motto is DFTBA: Don't Forget to Be Awesome, and their purpose is to "Decrease World Suck."Their YouTube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/vlogbrothers?ob=4 or their Ning social networking site http://nerdfighters.ning.com/
