Welcome back!

I was recently browsing the net for some cool topics to post in my blog and there I landed on this online browser-based game site named Travian, registered, and in a minute started playing and whoa…I’m playing and playing and am still playing! I love strategy games, and this game is so far an ultimately challenging strategic game I’ve ever played, where you compete with thousands of players from all around the world!

This browser based game is a world full of thousands of users who all begin as a leader of a small village with a single building, where some ends up being a huge dominating city and some ends up completely destroyed in the wage of war - all with your own strategic decision-making!

Travian has been awarded “The Browser Game Of The Year.” Definitely Travian offers a variety of experiences and strategic decision-making on various variables such as harvesting different resources, specializing in a trade for best price at the marketplace, extending and expanding, defending your own village against attacks, diplomatic relationship with thousands of other players, etc. which can either ultimately turn you to be a dominating city or get destroyed in the middle of a war.

In Travian there are three tribes: Romans, Gauls, and Teutons and four types of resources: Wood, Clay, Iron, and Wheat and your success in this game to turn your chosen city of your tribe in a big city hugely depends on how efficiently you’ve been able to collect the resources, upgrade your village, develop troops, and develop alliance to support your development and growth.

I’m really loving this strategy simulation game. This game is so addicted. The most interesting thing about this game that I found is when we communicate with other players. Those who are bigger always try to create dominance and what I liked the most of this game is interaction with them. How strategically I can defer such dominance, ally with them, and use their own armies against another enemies is simply a wonderful strategy for me right now.

If you love playing strategy games, you’ll really love this game. There are a lot of servers supporting thousands of players online and you do not need to download anything to play this wonderful free online game. So what are you waiting for, just jump on to be a travian and discover a whole new world online!

Note: Select the UK5 Server when you register to play this online browser game. This is the latest server with lots of upgrades, which I’m sure you’ll love!

Rulerphone - An iPhone Apps

I would like to reiterate about the usefulness of an interesting iPhone application that’s well worth a second look.

I had mentioned in my previous post about Top 7 Most Useful Free iPhone Utility Applications where I also discussed about Ruler which is a free application which can help you get the dimensions. But this iPhone application that I’m talking about is really cool. It’s Rulerphone, with which you can measure the distances and dimensions between objects in a picture!

As I have told in my previous post on The Right Brain vs The Left Brain Test - The Spinning Dancer, there is no trickery used - the fact remains that the image is a constant 34-frame loop representing a full revolution of a dancer, and the effect in which the viewer perceives the dancer to be revolving clockwise or counter-clock wise is entirely caused by the ambiguous frames where the spinning dancer’s legs and arms cross over each other.

However, it seems many people are finding it difficult to see the dancer turning clockwise and counter-clockwise.

So, here are the two animated images which clearly shows it turning clockwise (on the left GIF image) and counter-clockwise (on the right GIF image).

The only difference that these images are from the previous Spinning Dancer image is: This one has the legs marked as “L” and “R” which clears such ambiguous perception for a more clearer view.

This optical illusion is so cool and has been circulating since 2006! Carefully check the animated GIF below.

The finding of the thawed body proved out to be just another Bigfoot hoax! The two Georgia men who perpetrated the hoax about finding of the legendary myth, Bigfoot, has disappeared as the Bigfoot ‘body’ is found to be nothing but a rubber Halloween Costume!!

Not only everybody is upset about this hoax but the organization, Searching For Bigfoot, Inc, plans to pursue legal action against the men.

As the ice of the supposedly thawed body of the Bigfoot started melting, Steve Kulls, Executive Director of Squatchdetective.com, extracted a hair sample and burned it, only to find it made of synthetic fibers! and after an hour, the Bigfoot was confirmed to be a hoax as the further melting of the ice revealed a rubber foot!

Have you ever wondered what the actors were smoking throughout in the movie “Pineapple Express”?

It’s the fake weeds, a product from International Oddities! Yes! “Fake Weeds” as called by Seth Rogan.

This fake weed has been recently revealed on the 2008 MTV Music Awards with a fake weed stunt, where actors Robert Downey Jr., Will Smith, Rhiana, Chris Brown, and Anne Hathaway sitting in the front row looked completely shocked when the fake weed was set to a flame! In fact many people are shocked when they first learn of this 100% tobacco-free, legal bud smoke from International Oddities that resembles marijuana!
