Amidst the ample flames, tat and wasted space on the internet you’ll sometimes stumble across something delightfully worthwhile. Most recently, that’s been Game Gardens (via Wonderland). Yet to poke at it much, but it essentially offers you a Java toolkit for programming games and then lets you host the game on their site. Awfully nice of them.

With this, flickr, PodCasting and plently besides it’s like the internet will never cease to be a source of cool and useful new services and ideas. Who’d have predicted any of this stuff 10 years ago?
