Well it’s the middle of the night and I’m super-tired but I’ll be going to bed in a moment feeling much better than I did 4 hours ago. I still have a long way to go, but most of the site is up and working again. There are all sorts of bits and pieces I’ll More >

I’ve been working the past couple days on rebuilding a number of the memory games I used in the earlier, very-limited release of my memory program. Some of the games from this previous project are already available somewhere on the site, either in the Memory Game section, the memory portion of the brain fitness program, More >

as part of my Wednesday ritual, I have just posted three new puzzles. You can count on this being a regular thing-new puzzles on Wednesdays that is-as I run a weekly puzzle in the local newspaper and these are just duplicates. I have been added many were grits yet because they are a little more More >

I’ve just started a new series about brain fitness tips to offer you some suggestions as to how you can improve your mind apart from playing brain games. I’ll try to add a new tip every few days or whenever I feel inspired.

Both follow the same format as BrainBall but session last just one week instead of a month. The More >

I just added two more memory exercises to the Memory Workout Program. Eventually, I will have 10+ games in this section, but the next 5 won’t be coming along for a little while yet. Enjoy! Word Order – watch a sequence of words and remember the order in which they appeared Color Match – like More >

well my progress on getting everything back online and working again has hit a snag with the discovery that my theme does not display properly in IE 7. for whatever reason it just won’t show the columns properly. I have spent like 6 hours trying to figure this out, even trying different themes but no More >

Apparently there was an error with the words not loading in Keyboarding. This should be all set, but if anyone else encounters an error in one of the games–especially a critical one like that – please contact me and let me know.

Beginning January 15, 2009 this site is undergoing a major upgrade, live.  As such many featrues will be unavailable for the coming weeks, but I will do as best as I can to fill in all the holes as soon as possible.  For now, feel free to play any of the below games on the More >

I have recently launched a new initiative called The Brain Directory. I figured since I spend many hours ever week scouring the web for brain-related websites, I might as well compile a directory of them to help keep me better organized and provide a valuable resources for other interested parties. It’s just beginning, so I More >

Typically this website focuses on online brain games, but just for a brief diversion I will direct you a resource for downloadable, offline mind games and brain fitness programs. This website has a long and lengthy list of different software programs related to mind exercises and brain games.
