FUN SITES
Useful
Inventions This site is a fun and zany site which gives you a listing
(not sure how comprehensive) of inventions created on planet earth. It is
more for interest and amusement than for use and provides you with a few
laughs.
How
to be an Inventor This site is another joke site. It claims to
provide you with a practical guide to becoming an inventor but does not do
this. It is a games site where you have to read the clues and guess the
identity of each inventor. Good for a laugh but not much else.
