Fun & Science

Thumbshots Labs is where science meets fun. We continuously conduct usability and performance tests with the help of leading universities to study the impact of thumbshots on search engines, directories and the Internet. Once in a while, something interesting happens and we try to make it available publicly so users can benefit from the technology.

Below are some of the ongoing projects that have passed the "cool-o-rama" test suitable for public consumption. Projects may be added, removed or modified over time. Visiting Thumbshots Labs may suddenly increase white hair. Enter at your own risk.
