Everyone loves to hate on Canadian pop rock group Nickelback’s tunes, so naturally, the Defensive Nickelback Fan had to stand up for them on Twitter. Unfortunately all that defending must have eaten away at his weary soul — his tweets fizzled out after two days. Still, worth visiting for one or two chuckles.

The tree, which sits in their Sydney office, is being streamed live. The more ‘Merry Christmas’ is tweeted, the more the tree flickers. Ho, ho, ho, and all that.

If there was a statement that sums up the Facebook revolution for a lot of people, FACEBOOK RUINED MY LIFE would be it. You’ve been there with me, agonising over how to successfully hide a break-up, been found by people who should have remained lost, been stalked by these people, and just when you think you’ve blocked them, there’s an email demanding an explanation why. Oh wait, maybe that’s just me.

Now this is very clever, though you have to be a little patient to access it as the site takes a while to load. Created by Japanese developers, the IS Parade website asks you to type in your Twitter name, then generates a fun 3D parade of your Twitter followers, trailing merrily in your wake. And it all comes with a bouncy musical backing and some rather interesting sound effects.
