EggWatchers: Entertainment While You Wait!

2010-01-29-EggWatchers.jpgWhen you're hungry and just want breakfast, those minutes waiting for an egg to boil can really tick by. Well, this website is a 2-for-1 deal: it's an egg timer that keeps you entertained with YouTube videos while your egg is cooking!

 
 

EggWatchers first takes you through a series of questions to determine the size of the egg you're cooking, whether it's cool or room temperature, and how soft or hard you want it cooked. Looking at all the little egg animations for each question is entertainment by itself!

Questions answered, the site tells you how long it will take your egg to cook and then pairs you with a YouTube video of the same length. We watched a montage of the Simpsons, "Inspired Bicycles" by Danny MacAskill, and a bizarre yet strangely riveting claymation zombie movie before giving in to the desire for a "squidgy" egg of our own.

How do you like your eggs?

I love this... and may use it even when I'm not boiling an egg...
