Fun for the whole family

Today I thought I'd share with you a few of my family's favorite fun websites (Wow, am I good with the alliteration today, or what?)

www.sporcle.com is a quiz game website. Quizzes are mostly timed, and range from the obscure - name all the top 10 boys' names starting with 'M' from each decade between 1890 and 2010, to the relatively easy - what four things did Snoopy serve for Thanksgiving dinner in the classic special? If you have a spare ten minutes and want to have a good time with your kids, this is a good bet, especially if one of you is a fast typist. Seriously, if you are a quick thinker and a slow typer, I can't think of any single website that would be more frustrating.

The other fun website is called Akinator, and you can get to it by going to www.akinator.com. Akinator is a genie who plays 20 Questions, and he is uncannily good at guessing any character you can come up with, from your yoga teacher to Fringe's Walternate, to Aeschylus.



What are your favorite game websites?
