Okay. Very few things amaze me, but this is one of them! You guys have got to try this out. There are no other words to describe this other than amazing. It's a bunch of interactive experiments that Google have put together.
There are four awesome experiments for you to try out...
Universal Orchestra
Ever fancied yourself as a musician? Well here's your chance to shine as you can control a musical instrument located in The London Museum. You get a live feed of the instrument you are playing and you can control the notes. What's even better is that you are collaborating with people from all over the globe who are playing a different instrument. You get a three minute slot where you record a three minute piece with the rest of the other instruments and players at that time. This is then put on display for people in the museum to listen to during the day. The instrument you play is real and is fed to you in real time. This one is my favourite one.

Teleporter
This allows you to view live video in a 360 degree panoramic view of places where a camera has been fitted. I believe it changes everyday to different locations. It even transmits the sound too.

Sketchbots
This is pretty cool. You can have your face drawn in sand by robots in the London Museum. All you have to do is take a picture with your webcam and then you are presented with a live feed of a robot drawing your face in the sand.
