The Periphery of the Mind

Been slowly working through a list of free programs for virus protection, e-mail, and pretty much anything you could imagine.

One of the links was to a site called Kongregate. Basically, it's a social gaming site. Meaning you have your game on the left side of the screen and chatting on the right. I just click the "bug report" option on the chat window and that blocks the people talking from sight. There looks to be a pretty good variety of games as well, although some are better than others. Protector is a popular "tower defense" style game, where you purchase, place, and improve wizards to stop oncoming waves of attackers. A nice feature is that the game can remember your progress for you. Pillage the Village is another fun game. If your idea of fun is knocking over houses and killing poor little peasants for fun by repeatedly picking them up and dropping them.

Another site I've been visiting for some time is an online Su-Do-Ku site, Sudoku Kingdom. There's a lot of Su-Do-Ku sites out there, but I like that this one is interactive and has a timer.
