Photos of Winged Cats - not photoshopped, this trickery predates computer manipulation.
found by robRevenge of the sensible driver. Admiring hundreds of images of crashed cars might be a touch morbid, but it's kinda satisfying when the vehicles are all Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Porsches, Aston Martins etc...

Flash movie based on one of the oddest 911 calls you're ever likely to hear. Stay tuned to the end for a romantic twist.

Get drunk with Scottish B3ta people - b3ta boarder Stoufer was annoyed that we held our party in London, and is holding his own in Edinburgh. They've made a lovely tartan flyer - so if you are in the area then pop in. (Sat, 18th May, 8pm)

Commercial Breaks and Beats can tell you. With over 1000 different ad songs in there, it might point you in the right direction.

Swear and win prizes - FannyBatter is a small e-commerce site that sells novelty sex toys. That's the boring bit. The good bit is that they are asking you to phone their UK freephone number on 08000 711 117 and swear your head off. Oh - and leave your number if you want to win.

B3ta MP3s - a lot of the people who hang out on the message board have been creating music recently. B3ta member thorpe has collected the links together to make a er.. collection of links. So sit back, download and enjoy the gentle sounds of B3ta Radio.

kill him. Thought people that worked for apple were all supposed to be lovely?

found by pep"The story of a woman torn between our world and theirs...a world of light and dark...of trust and betrayal...A twisted tale of desire where lust journeys down a forbidden path...set against a gothic horror too incredible to believe!" Ladies and Gentlemen, prepare yourselves for the feel-good film of the summer,
Vampire Lesbian Kickboxers - The Movie.
found by FraserFunny photo from the may day protests - which were a bit a damp squib really. We were quite disappointed to turn the TV on and see no riots.

Hamlet as Powerpoint Presentation - for busy execs. In the words of the designer, "Busy executives don't have time for art and literature. Books and plays are not for the time-poor, cash rich executive lounge lizards of the twenty first century. Literature needs to be put into a language they understand. And these days, there's only one international language: Powerpoint." (BTW: This will only work if you have Microsoft Powerpoint on your PC. If you're in an office - you probably have.)
found by robAfter the success of b3ta's own
Billy Big Mouth Bass amimation, we've discovered that you can use Billy for other purposes. Like turning him into a
video teleconferencing system, for instance.
found by FraserIf you ever saw a graphics demo on a commodore 64, then you'll enjoy this - old school thrills, best with sound. Ah what's that I feel? Sweet sweet nostalgia.
found by jimbobFive Finger Fillet is a game where you stab the spaces between your fingers with a knife, hoping to avoid slicing your flesh. It made me feel sick.
found by FraserOur brains work in mysterious ways, a fact ably demonstrated by
The Thatcher illusion. Extremely scary.

It's called the Dog Diaper.

Is this game fantastic or what? - like all great games, Collapse has a simple concept, it's Maccy Game meets Tetris. You can pick it up in 1 minute, reach a gamers high within 5 and still be playing it 2hrs later. Genius.
(sorry - not mac compatible)
found by robDid the KLF record this football tune? - rumour reaches us that Bill Drummond of the KLF recorded this tune for the World Cup, and then didn't bother putting it out. Whatever the truth, it's an amusing disco track with a sweet little flash video.
found by robNew B3ta newsletter out - and it's full of clicky goodness. We've got a sequel to Female or Shemale, bootleg MP3s and an interview with TV's Gaz Top. Make sure you remember to subscribe if you haven't got round to it yet. We put 10 tonnes of effort into making it the best pile of old crap in one handy email we can. Think of it as spam from heaven. We do.

Photos of a young Bill Gates - gawd he looks nerdy. I wonder if he was still a virgin then.
