As a former Under 17 National Javelin Champion, I am instinctively of a competitive disposition, accompanied by a vast interest in various sports. Consequently, I am always obliging to try anything that satisfies both needs for me - whether it is serious or not. A couple of years ago, a friend introduced me to a very quirky and fun website that satisfies the latter. On www.racingfrogs.org, you create and manage a frog to race against other frogs owned by online gamers. The idea is very fun and the science sounds simple enough, but it is far more complex than you'd perceive. The Premise ... more

Racing frogs…. This site is a very fun concept aimed at children (it has 'educational value') but obviously used by people of all ages (from the forum it appears to be mostly adults- office boredom I guess.) The point of racing frogs is that you get a frog and you race it!!!! Simple. To increase your frogs chances of winning there are certain things you can do such as training it in the gym, finding it the best diet and buying it things to keep it happy and therefore increase its contentment. More about all this later. There are three 'ponds' that you can sign up to. You are allowed one frog ... more

Racing Frogs. The concept is quite simple. Yet the game so compelling. This will most likely be a very short review just to advertise the wonderful world of racing frogs to you. To understand the true power of this website you must visit it for yourself. ----------------------------- How I Got Into It ----------------------------- One day a friend of mine is talking via the medium of messenger.

It ... more

When babysitting two youngsters who happen to be hyperactive after eating too many sweets (I tend to spoil my little brother and sister so this is partly my fault!) I eventually resorted to allowing them onto my computer and strived to find them a site which they could both play, or at least both be amused by. On my travels I came across Racing Frogs. It was the name that appealed to my little brother, so I didn't see any harm in looking into it. ******Overview****** Racing Frogs is aimed at younger people, yet all ages are welcome, and by what I saw, mainly older people seem to go on there ... more

Three years ago a friend sent me a link to Racing Frogs. I wasn't going to open it as it didn't sound interesting to me. However, I clicked on the link and went on to the site. I was immediately attracted by the appearance of the site and especially the frogs. They all start off as green cartoon-like frogs with big eyes. To create your frog there are countless variations of hair styles, faces, bodies, legs and feet, some of which made me laugh out loud. Then I had to give my frog a name and enter my e-mail address, my gender, whether or not I was a child or an 'immature adult', a trainer name ... more
