Weltkind’s Weblog

Weltkind’s thoughts and speculations.

Yesterday my friend Mullwar (blog is in Russian) told me of this website. There you can:

  • answer their daily posts
  • play games
  • watch videos

and get points for that. You also get points for logging in and inviting friends. Then you can redeem these points for real prizes (brand stuff, electronics, experiences).

You can join only if you get invited, so if somebody wants an invitation, let me know :) (leave a comment or connect me via my website).

A very short fun guideline for choosing a way of traveling to a longer destination.

The most important factor is reliability. That’s why first decide how you would prefer to die. Unsuccessful flight could result in falling from height and crashing, while a ship could sink, which means to choke in water. Although, going by ship, you can take a rubber boat with you, and when the ship starts sinking, as it doesn’t sink just in a moment, you would manage to fill the boat with air and continue traveling by boat. But ask the captain for directions first. So, going by ship, there is more chance to survive, though a plane is faster and probably more comfortable. And in case of falling, you’ll have a great opportunity to try parachuting. :D
Take care)

A surprise

Recently my friend (we both live in Latvia) sent me a post and today I was waiting for a sheet of paper to come telling me I should go to the postoffice to get it. When I came to check my mailbox first time, there wasn’t any paper. When i came second time it was there! I was very happy and came back to the computer to tell her I received the invitation and would go to the postoffice to get the mail.

Then I started to read the paper further and saw that it was from Great Britain! I was really surprised and started to laugh. I was excited though and guessed who could be the sender)) When I got the mail there was a cute bear :) Thanks Colin!! ;)

A squirrel eating crackers:)

Today I got a newspaper from my friend. The first article I came across was about a squerrel who got crackers from a bird-feeder in someone’s garden. There was an URL to the video at the end and I would like to share the vid :)

Change a font size of a webpage

I was writing a post in a forum and needed to paste a phrase. I usually use ctrl+v. I pressed ctrl and then started to think about the things i was going to say, and scrolled the mouse (forgot to release ctrl) and the text of the forum became smaller. This way i found out that we can change the size of the text by holding ctrl and scrolling a mouse)) (alternatively View>Font size in the menu of the browser). I use Firefox.
