Questionable content is a website that is a web comic which revolves around the life of a "hipster" named Marten who dropped out of college, and now is merely moving from job to job, dealing with the problems within his inner circle of friends, all who are into indie bands. I like the comic because it ridicules and incorporates alot of indie and metal culture, which is easy to relate to. My favorite part of this website is the fact that it appeals to all ages from 14 to 35, even if you are not completely familiar with "hipster" culture. The reason I enjoy the comic so much is because it portrays the social problems that many teenagers ancounter in the group of friends.

This site is devoted to help people work on their reaction time by providing a game for people which is a game that has a group of sheep sitting on one end of the screen, and the user must click the mouse as fast as they can once they see the sheep begin to cross from the left side to the right side of the screen. The people that created the site store all the results from the people playing the game. They use all the data collected from the users to create an acceptable range of reaction times, and if you are not in the average time zone, the site tells you that you are either faster or slower than the average based on your results.
