Google's World Wide Maze

Google has just launched its latest in a long list of crazy mind-boggling innovations. World Wide Maze is an interactive game that can turn any website of your choosing into a playable, 3D maze (What?!). You control a marble that must zig and zag its way to the finish (by turning your smart phone), collecting crystals along the way and navigating the treacherous curves of the Google logo (or Facebook, or Tumblr, or Twitter, or whatever). The requirements? You must have Google Chrome installed on both your computer and smart phone and then sync the two. Then, download the (chrome.com/maze) and enjoy! Video below.

Why aren't these everywhere, yet?!: Pong Traffic Light Buttons

You know that buttons you press impatiently while you wait for traffic to stop so you can finally cross the street? Well, Germany has figured out a way to make that whole waiting thing a little more fun by incorporating a game of pong that you play with a player on the other side of the street. Cool, right? It gets better. The box also has an timer that tells you exactly how much longer before the light changes. Video below.
