I’m not sure who set up this website, or, for that matter, why, but this unusual site allows you to type in simple commands such as “dance,” “run,” or “jump” and then you get to see a short video of a dog doing exactly what you typed.

It’s pretty cutesy, but it’s a neat effect to be able to tell a web page what to  do. Beginning typists might have fun with this. The commands you can type in are obviously fairly limited so this page, while it might still be fun, would not be challenging enough for someone who’s been taking typing a while.

Having been both a person who has given instructions on computer use, as well as someone who’s gotten instructions from others, I had to laugh when I came across this video.
