Synopsis

According to efficiency experts, the average computer user spends 9 minutes every day waiting for files and web screens to download (that's more than 54 hours a year!) - and that's not even counting the time spent rebooting after the downloaded file crashes your computer. Now, at last, there's an activity book to help computer users make the most of their time. Computer Waiting Games is a witty, fully illustrated guide to more than 50 how-to projects, puzzles, games, and activities, ranging from the decorative to the slightly demented. A mix of self-improvement handbook, computer manual, and Martha Stewart Living, this book teaches readers new sports (Mouse Ball Bowling), dazzling crafts (Create a Floppy Bird Feeder), amazing weight-loss techniques (Printer Cable Calisthenics), and even New Age philosophy (Harmonize Your Desktop with Feng Shui).
