Peter's Web Links: Potter puppets get laughs online
I know that it's been a while since I've brought you some Internet goodness and I do apologize. Facebook has taken up all my spare time. Just kidding! Here are a few gems that I've discovered over the past few weeks.
Potter Puppet Pals

You're not going to believe what you're going to find at this site. Let me put it this way: if you love Harry Potter and you love Itchy and Scratchy from “The Simpsons,” then you'll love the mayhem that's found on this site. Watch the Harry Potter puppets hang out and have their untimely demise! Have a laugh and have a cry.
Achievement 360 Points

If you read my gaming column this week, you know that Crackdown has taken over my life (well, now that I just bought Guitar Hero II today, that'll change) just for the achievement points. If you would like another site instead of www.xbox360achievements.org to check out achievement lists and to get tips on how to get them, look no further than this site. The printable lists to take from your computer to your living room are sweet.
Cat is Injured from owner's boyfriend playing the Wii

I know I've mentioned www.wiihaveaproblem.com before, but you have to go back (or go for the first time) to read the article about the cat who got it's leg broken because of its owner's boyfriend being careless with his Wii-mote. I know animal cruelty is wrong, but I just had to laugh in disbelief. Read this one and share it with your gaming friends.
Kraftwork

You may want to put this under my music column, but I figured that if I'm talking about gaming and the net, it should go here. You can sample Kraftwork's music, which is an homage to classic gaming and performed on old school systems. If you like what you hear, you can buy the CD!
Buzztime

No...this has nothing to do with drinking or drugs. Wait, it COULD have something to do with drinking beer because this is the official site of Buzztime Trivia (formerly NTN). If you go out to bars and play the trivia with the little blue boxes at your table, then you're probably playing this. You can set up your own profile, get informed of contests, see you own stats and hook up with other players.
