‘Beat beat the funky funk funk’

This post’s title comes from the site’s footer.

Mr. Premium Linkage a.k.a. mikael chose this as the entry point to the curious world of Rico Monkeon:

Wiki Radio 📻.

Inspired by WikiTok, I thought I'd make something to discover sounds uploaded to Wikimedia. From political speeches and bird noises to genuine bangers, it's mostly wholesome, though I cant guarantee it won't play you something horrible once in a while.

Bird noises! Got that John? Serendipity baby!

Needless to say, I went exploring from the root and found more fun:

• 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸 The Time Traveling Wilburys Generator
• INFININANANA - The non-stop Hey Jude experience
• Not Worth The Paper It's Written On : An Autographs Quiz

There’s more but I’ll leave it up to you to find it.

Thanks mikael!

attn: oldskool gamer girls and guys

As young teens, Wren and Syn didn't know each other but had something in common: they loved the video game Final Fantasy IV. Oddly enough, they met online years later and became best friends, exploring each other’s takes on the worlds and characters of the game.

This would really make an interesting online comic!

Indeed! They started the site way back in 2001:

Astounding talent - bravo!

‘glimmering pixel fun’

Thanks to jshwlkr@pinboard, I came upon the following this morning:

The Pixel Canvas Shimmer Effect (github)

So linkguy and I have been playing around with it for the last hour, hoping to show you an example of the cool effect and though we got it to work offline, I’m sorry to tell we’re still working on showing it to you (but still having fun). - just hover on linkguy…
