Appsolutely and the Lost Muppets adventure

nothingtonobody — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 03:24:43 +0000

words: Di Thornley
Ahhh… summer holidays, the time where you eat, drink and watch movies until you get
cabin fever. Then comes the challenge; either get out of the house or run the serious risk
of turning into Martha Stuart or Patrick Bateman. Cue a flurry of texts to decide the next
day’s events and a dig around the app store… Bring on the Melbourne City Challenge.

Appsolutely Melbourne provides an exciting individual or group challenge guaranteed to
shift you to the entertaining side of crazy. I’ve often watched the Amazing Race with envy, wanting to run around town under a team moniker answering questions and sleuthing the city. This app is a free install created by the clever people at Bizar Melbourne. It’s designed to be a portal to individual challenges you purchase and download and at $15-25 it’s pretty good value too. Choosing between the lengthiest (Melbourne) and the shorter
St Kilda or Fitzroy Gardens this group of Lost Muppets had an awesome time navigating from clue to icon with ample use of the pause button between questions to ensure our thirst was quenched along the way. These are the holidays, baby, group consensus decides the consumption of a brain aiding beer a must!

Some minor teething glitches aside, (our team name is not on the leader board yet and the photo hasn’t automatically displayed on Facebook) this was a brilliant way to get out and about and learn a little trivia on the side. And being Melbourne residents I do hope we stay near the top of the ladder, it would be rather embarrassing if our interstate friends take the lead.

So if you have a spare afternoon or some visiting friends why not throw down the glove and declare the competition open?

We here at Nobody are suckers for anything miniature, and so when we came across the work of Kiva Ford we were beside ourselves, and our wallets fled in terror! Aside from creating beautiful tiny hand blown glass bottles Kiva also creates wonderful unique pieces such as the heart in a jar, and also the tiny brain in a jar pictured here. You can find his amazing pieces for sale in his Etsy store…

Hot under the collar

Martin Abel draws the kinda girls you want either as part of your crew if you’re a kick arse pirate captain or space adventurer, or you want to find making you pancakes in the morning (be you a boy or a girl) after a heady night of …. playing Halo or WOWC. His Pin Ups are damn hot – freeeyowww! But that’s not the only magic up his talented illustrative sleeves and he is also an amazing cartoonist creating cells in style for the likes of Xbox magazine. Check out his site for more goodness!
