Read at work

This is genius, a site which looks exactly like Microsoft Windows XP, so you can read other stuff while you’re at work. Choose from short stories, poetry, classics etc, all called up in a faux PowerPoint window. I think this is the only time I have been able to forgive a website for forcing fullscreen mode on me. Found through the very nice Very Short List

No good for Mac workplaces though. If slightly less cultured vintage games are your thing, check out The Macintosh Garden or the Little Green Desktop for similar GUI lookalikes.

Has anyone seen any other sites which look like operating systems?
