Reader Challenge: The Best of the Interwebs

Oh Audience at Home: we know there are at least a few people out there reading these words. Confess your presence! We want only one thing from you: Comment and share videos, blogs, hilariously bad fan art. What's the BEST THING you've found in this crazy online world?

H: See, sometimes the Internet is a big lonely place. But sometimes it is like a big vending machine where you hit E5 for a Snickers bar and then the machine just goes crazy and you end up getting like ten dollars of junk food. Sometimes you go online to, say, check email, and you end up staring at this http://toki-woki.net/p/scroll-clock/ for an hour because it was in someone's Facebook status.

A: Or say you want to see how well your blog is doing according to google. So you google, in our case, "Adrienne and Hannah." AND BEHOLD! Not only are we really famous bloggers, but we're also HARRY POTTER'S CHILDREN. (Discover our real past) We got to recollect our first years with our dad, Harry, on Christmas morning. What rascals we were! To "punish" us, Harry lovingly sent us down the stairs by wingardrium leviosa-ing us! "Both Hannah and Adrienne flew up into the air laughing." What fun that must have been for us.


H: And clearly that childhood had quite an impact on our mental/emotional state, because we grew up to author ...


A: We had a magical life, and still do. While the world is mesmerized by Twilight, we take it to the next level. No subtle teen romance, but check out our blatantly romance novelesque covers! No British accents here, we got Scottish! HIS KISS COULD MEAN FOREVER!

H: Since we're doing Internet Shout Outs, we should also name drop the blog we started following. You want to explain your personal connection with this topic?

A: I wish my personal connection was actually being involved in one of these, but alas, it's not. I just have a fascination with the idea of missed connection ads.

H: Soooo Adrienne got them started up in our student newspaper and they are GREAT. Plus I totally got to illustrate last week's. Life goal: check!

A: I got the idea after we found this site: http://nygirlofmydreams.com/ and they're a huge hit in major cities. The blog we're following is an artist who picks her favorite NYC missed connections and paints them. Check it out! http://missedconnectionsny.blogspot.com/
H: So now that we've given you a bunch of things to procrastinate with ... we want your favorites. Send us LINKS!

A: Or send other people OUR link ... or you can just follow us. So we feel cool.

H: First person to comment who we don't actually know in real life .... we'll write a post all about you. So comment!
