The moonwalk is certainly a quintessential Michael Jackson dance move. Everyone seems to try it, but few do it very well. That didn't stop Studio Brussel from putting together the ultimate tribute to the recently departed King of Pop: the Eternal Moonwalk. Thousands of fans around the world have contributed their own 10-second interpretations of this famous dance move and they are now strung together in a continuous stream that slides across your monitor. You'll find animated characters, toddlers, pets, food and various other objects, as well as plenty of goofy adults. There are even some 5-star moonwalk artists. The order is random, so you'll see a different collection of videos each time you watch.

Do you think you've got killer moonwalk skills? Or maybe you just want to add to the tribute to Michael Jackson? Visit Eternal Moonwalk to see what has been done so far and to see the instructions on adding your own clip to the mix.

If you're anxiously awaiting the release of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, you'll want to make a visit to the official movie website. Although it's not as immersive as previous Harry Potter websites, there are still some fun things to do.

• Wizard Pairings asks you to enter your name and the name of another person to see which Harry Potter pair you most resemble in love or friendship.
• Muggle Hub has an assortment of videos, screensavers, wallpapers, icons and more so you can show off just what a huge fan you are.
• The YouTube HarryPotter site has a "3D Experience" that allows to you create your own 3D potion-making videos. This is hard to explain, but super cool to see and try out!
• And my favorite, a custom version of the Daily Prophet. Upload your own pictures or video into the Daily Prophet. You can then download it, print it out, or share it with friends.

There are some other fun goodies on the site as well. Hey, we need something to do while we wait, right?

My Secret Circle, a social networking site for tween girls, launches today. The site, which allows girls to chat, play games and share pictures online, uses special technology to allow girls to connect with their friends online. Each girl has a "key" (similar to a USB flash drive) that they can use to access the site. To add a friend, girls generate a one-time-use secret code that will identify another girl as a friend.

My Secret Circle Access Keys are available to purchase individually, or in a special "BFF" (Best Friend Forever) 2-pack just for sharing.

The theme for the July All About Parenting Blog Carnival is "mid-summer madness." I can't imagine a better theme, since our summer has started out with rainy day after rainy day. Not only are the kids out of school, but they're stuck inside the house. It isn't pretty, let me tell you!

When the kids are bored with their toys and can't be outside, how about some computer time? Now, don't groan. There are plenty of creative activities that your kids can do with the family computer and gadgets that don't involve video games or surfing the web. In fact, some of them can make for fun family time!
