After 20 years of requesting and waiting for a train station to be built, Taj Nagar, a small village just outside of Delhi had had enough; they saved up 2.1 million rupees (about $45,000 USD) and built it themselves. More »

From Rekuru:

As Morning Musume is teaching us, losing the game means getting bonked on the head, and tournaments should be taken seriously. Because Rock Paper Scissors is scissor-ous (er, serious) business.

From Girlybubble: Behold, what is pictured above is our beloved Japanese mascot and patron saint of relaxation, Rirakkuma and cupcakes. Almost everything I love in life is in that picture. A random thought occurred to me the other day: What if the two combined? How cute would that be and also…how confused would I be? A little research on the Internet yielded some answers and pictures. If the two combined it would be very cute, yet extremely confusing. To eat or not to eat? More »

Jinra is too busy washing her hair or something, so I’m writing this week’s prize winners/updates. In case we haven’t said this enough times, we just launched HTCYou - a site for HTC phone users and Google Android news. That’s site #10 for us yay! Soon, we’ll be giving out unlocked HTC phones as part of the promo. I bet that got your attention. There was also some Mixr League Gaming action or MLG for short. We didn’t have just one tournament, but two: Ningin defeated the evil chimera known as BlitzKuTek; and the Battle of the Sexes, where the guys were oh so close to beating the girls. We’re still experimenting around with various rules, length, team sizes, etc. but so far so good. The much more intense MLG 3-month long ladder starts this week. My bold prediction, someone from a Mixr site will win! More »

Naburo is an Indonesian version of Naruto. Some scanlator kindly translated the first volume so us non-Indonesian readers can appreciate the story. Otherwise we would have to make do with the beautiful art. Even after being translated, I don’t really understand the story. Obviously it wasn’t meant for lesser minds like mine to comprehend.

This week’s pin challenge should you choose to accept: Ninja Cubes! Ninja Cubes is a flash game that tests your ninja flash game skills. I am confident that Ninginers are in no shortage of ninja skills of any sort. The objective in Ninja Cubes is to collect as many ninja cubes as possible with your mouse cursor before time runs out. The pin challenge objective however, isn’t as easy. More »

There are few artists out there these days that are consistently pumping out great music. With most people, songs are either hit and miss, and it is not uncommon for artists to be famous one day and fade into the shadows the next. YUI is certainly not one of these artists. More »

The official results of yesterday’s 1-day Battle of the Sexes match are in! To recap the event, the match pitted a team of 9 Mixr guys and a team 9 Mixr girls in competing against each other in a 1-day battle of…flash games. You better believe it was an intense match. For such an intense match, there’s only room for one (dominant) sex to take on the winning title. As team captain of the girl’s team I am proud to say, “We are women hear us roar!” More »

If Ningin was one big neighborhood, it seems most of us wouldn’t mind having spies as next door neighbors. Typically, it’s easy to assume that no sane person would want spies for neighbors, but I’m only making this assumption based on the results of The Spy Next Door pin game. Or, I could be totally wrong and it’s actually another movie we had all wished to do well but didn’t. More »

From Girlybubble: I’m just going to put this out there and hopefully no one will judge me too harshly: I like being on the toilet. Specifically, I like pooping. This goes along the logic that implies that people like to do things that make them feel good. Well, being on the toilet makes me feel good. A Hello Kitty-themed toilet? That would only make me feel good-er. Pimping out my toilet Hello Kitty style would only do much to upgrade a bathroom to sanctuary status. More »

The owl in Sora no Woto is an actual owl that can flatten itself. I thought it was just an exaggeration of how scared it was. I guess it was obvious since they never used any generic anime style expressions like a sweat drop or black lines down the face. Seeing an actual owl flatten itself like that is kinda creepy. More »

This has been a long time coming (like months ago), however, we’ve been busy adding new websites to our network. We still have a few more sites to go including a fashion and movie site. That’s one fashion site and one movie site, not a site about fashion in movies. Anyway, some people felt that comments in certain areas like Blogs or Social News should be worth more than comments in forum games. That makes sense to me. Here’s a breakdown of the changes: More »

From Girlybubble: I really hate that I’m initially inclined to feeling like I have to eat something if I see something cute. Fuzzy puppies on the street, babies and cute boys are instant mind triggers for this thought: NOM NOM NOM!!!! In a heartbeat, I’d find myself the nearest nail salon willing to apply Hello Kitty gumball machine nail art to my nails such as the ones pictured above. Unfortunately, the one thing that is holding me back from doing this is, I’m afraid of acrylic nail poisoning — I’d want to eat my own nails! More »
