Science Fair Central
"Although there’s lots of fun science stuff to peruse here, you’ll find the meat of the matter in the Handbook section written by Janice VanCleve, author of more than forty books on science and science fairs. "A science project is like a mystery in which you are the detective searching for answers. Science projects let you practice and exhibit your detective skills. You not only get to select which mystery to solve, but you can creatively design methods for uncovering clues that will lead to the final revelation of who, what, when, where, how, and why.""

Net-Robot
"From Konstanz University in Germany, Net-Robot plays a game called Tower of Hanoi. Invented by a French mathematician in 1883, Tower of Hanoi is played by moving discs between towers. There are only two rules: never place a larger disc over a smaller one, and only move one disc at a time. If you have a Java-enabled browser, you can choose a destination tower and watch as Net- Robot makes the seven moves needed to move the discs according to the rules. See the clock with the sweeping second hand in the background of the Web cam image? That’s the time in Germany."
