It looks really interesting – you need  to register before you can enter the site.

…. there is the InventNow.org – World which is an interactive online cartoon environment where kids can learn about inventors, and invention and get a creative spark to get the brain cells going. Then go to InventNow.org – Invent, and have kids start to put their ideas together.

Let me know via comments if you do.

From MakeOseOf.com comes something you might be interested in, DanceJam.

Do you like dancing? Want to show off your moves or pickup a couple of
new ones? Enter DanceJam. Here people can upload and submit their dance
videos for others to see, comment and vote on. One really interesting
feature is the battle contest, where two dancers show off their skills
and viewers decide who is the better dancer.

Features:

  • Upload your dance moves and see what others have to say.
  • Watch dance videos from others.
  • Watch dance video in full-screen and slow motion modes.
  • Browse videos by type (ex. lessons only) or popularity (i.e. most viewed, highest rated etc.)

By the way, DanceJam was founded by MC Hammer.
