Inspired by Spot

By popular demand, a new adjunct to the Thingummy site - Pass Me A Thingummy!

Yep, there are some pretty cool folks out there who've been sending me cool stuff to add to the Thingummy collection... so here they are, and something about who sent them.

If you want to submit your own favourite thingummies, drop me a line telling me where I can get a copy, and you could feature here! Please don't email the actual programs, thanks!

Free kittycat! Oops, wrong brand. How about a free Felix from the catfood ad to wander around your desktop? He pops in and out, watches tv, purrs and washes and is low maintenance and so very cute. One of those "must have" thingummies. Thanks jointly to Gissie and Ellen for this one.

A very merry christmas from Spot!
Add some festive cheer to your 'puter screen with these cool Xmas lights, the only kind you can guarantee won't have burnt-out bulbs on the big day!

And another one from Spot - a weather watcher called Wetsocks.
Now this is seriously cool, a tiny program that sits in your taskbar and uses your internet connection to check on the local weather conditions... and i mean local, wherever you are in the world (pretty much) just choose your location, and hey, you can tell what the weather's like, temperature, wind, humidity, rain. Amazing stuff! It even displays the matching picture for the conditions as the icon!

Now its Tigger's turn... with questionable politics (but a great sense of fun), her choice was Saddam. Blast the heck out of everyones favourite bad guy! I still haven't figured out what the shopping trolley is for, but this is one to make you laugh out loud!
