5 sites we're watching

Posted: 07:12 PM ET

We're always on the lookout for people making a difference or even just people just making something unique online. Here's a few we have had up on our monitors for the past few days... they MAY end up on a future episode of "News To Me:"

Merry-go-wrong:
News To Me cameraman/editor/writer/producer Teague stumbled on this clip during his daily YouTube rounds. What do you get when you combine a playground merry-go-round, bored teenagers, and a motorcycle? Certain pain.

Hurricane Harmony:
No one is happy that Ike hit, but one man tried to take inspiration from the storm... check out Herbert Midgley and his musical iReport: Ike in East Texas. Our favorite line: "The wind is blowin, the rain is raining, and I'm out here rocking and rollin!"

Adorable puppy head tilt:
Don't you love it when dogs tilt their heads when they hear something they're not familiar with? So darn cute! We'll here's a guy who wrote a whole song for a puppy named Willy that inspires some extreme head tilts. Stay with it till the end, Willy's got skills.

Angry kangaroo:
Honestly, this man in marsupial's clothing is more than just angry, he's kind of a jerk! Blame "News To Me" producer Charles for putting this one on your radar.

Black Cab Sessions:
Our new "News To Me" sucker... I mean intern Corey, found a site called black cab sessions where you can watch acoustic tunes performed by the original artists in the back of a black taxi. Why a taxi? Not sure, but it's cool.

If you have a site we should be surfing let us know!!! Don't forget that we're looking for you to be our location scout AND to give us your 4 word review of last weekend's show!
