Holiday time waster: Build-a-Beast

If your workplace productivity drops during the holiday season, this one's for you. B’stro, an interactive marketing agency with offices in Vancouver and San Francisco, has come up with a way to help you kill a few more minutes of your ineffective day.

It's a site called Build-a-Beast, and name pretty much sums it up. You use the site to waste a few precious minutes of the workday by designing a holiday-themed beast.

So, get to work customizing your beast's face (vampire eyes?), headgear (antlers?), outfit (unicorn regalia?), footwear (hipster Crocs?), and accessories (hipster glasses?). When you're done, you can print out your beast as a card, send it as an e-card, share it on Facebook, or just save it to your desktop.

It won't be time well spent, but it'll be one less video you have to watch on YouTube.
