Having trouble keeping up with the high tech revolution? Join our tech head/artiste, Jacqui_o, for the surfing advice you really need. Way beyond blogging, Jacqui_o's web picks are avant-garde minimalism in a web world of too much. Best described as"kewl," "da bomb," and everything in between, you only wish she had her webcam turned on for this column...It's surfing, Jacqui_o style!

jacqui_o's Web Picks

http://www.zefrank.com/ This site is technically amazing, created by marketing genius / web designer / animator zefrank (at least I think that's what his name is). Not only does frank give us samples of his work, he also entertains us. This site is fun, interactive, and a great way to waste time at work!

http://www.newgrounds.com/ Newgrounds rocks, although I must warn you, this site is not for those who are easily offended. Great games for people with short attention spans, (like moi). This site is hardcore, with scenes of sex and violence (most of them are cartoons).

http://www.psychoexgirlfriend.com/ I think this site is very funny, I personally have thought many times about seeking revenge upon an ex-lover by posting embarrassing stuff about them on the net. Obviously the ex-girlfriend is not the only one who couldn't let go completely.

http://jazdesign.artshost.com/index.html O.K. every once in awhile I gotta give a plug or two to my friends. This site is a beautiful sampling of the works and designs of Jennifer Sowerby, designer / artiste. Jen-jen does it all web design, graffics, painting, you name it! Nice work Jen!

http://www.manbeef.com/home.html I'm not really sure if this is for real, or a hoax, but it makes me glad to be a vegetarian. I wasn't sure if I was going to post this one until the last minute, if it's for real, it's not the kind of thing I want to encourage, if you know what I mean. The last thing we need is bored, rich, people participating in cannibalism, scary!

http://www.jotto.com/bubblesoap/bubblesoap.html Bubblesoap is all about groovy sounds and cute visuals, this one kept me entertained for at least 45min. Very interactive, it allows you to get in touch with your inner dj - mix it up baby!!!

http://www.thehungersite.com You may have seen this one before, well I'm gonna show it to you again. It's a very cool idea. This site will donate food to starving people around the world, in exchange for advertising when you click on the little button that says, "Donate Free Food".

http://member.iquest.net/~derecho/pika.swf This is a super cute site created by a 14 year old boy from Japan. Imagine what this kid will be able to do when he's 16?

That's all for this month kids, keep on surfing, and sending us those links!! Happy Spring!
