Does anyone remember that strange web site sporg or something like that?

You would click on parts of it and it would change.

When I said sporg or splorg, I don't remember the name. I just thought it had a short name that started with an "s".

I remember the weird girl's site who had a fetish about being an amputee and liked wearing
myodisc glasses (very thick lenses). Totally weird. At some point she claimed she was going
to amputate herself to have hooks and then her site went down. All text was in caps. Way weird.

We had guys at work who would bring it up every few days to see what she was up to and
the access policies of that workplace were the most liberal I ever saw - anything goes in
that place.

I remember finding a site that would dynamically display an always-changing vector art image, accompanied by music. The picture was generated based on the weather patterns of whatever city or zip code you entered it.

Anyone remember that one? It was pretty cool.

TLC did a special on people who desperately wanted to be amputees. One guy deliberately froze off his legs and is now in a wheelchair with both legs amputated just above the knee. Messed up stuff.

Other than the voice repeating Welcom to Zombocom . . . , does this site do anything else?
