If it's unusual, useful, or both, there's a pretty good chance that Darragh Doyle has his finger on the pulse of the web. Every Tuesday he takes on the Herculean labour to lead Luddite Sean Moncrieff through what's trendy and trending online. Here's what he covered today:

• You DO win friends with salad

With over 17,000,000 views on Facebook and over 400,000 Shares, young Indie-Rose Moore from North Dublin is capturing the hearts of vegetarians worldwide.

(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));

“I really don’t want to eat animals – they’re so nice. Why do people chop them up? I don’t want to them to be chopped up,” she cries as her mother’s partner explains where meat comes from.

When she is asked why she doesn’t want to eat meat, little Indie-Rose says that “animal people are nice” and that “farmers shouldn’t chop people up. I don’t want to eat a horsey”.

• Feeling out of the loop with Reddit? 
  

Feeling out of the loop with Reddit? Here are some of the links that might help you, thanks to the Subreddit Out Of The Loop. Over there you can get caught back up on all kinds of things, like:

1. What happened last week on Reddit and why it’s important
2. What did the Greeks reject this week? 
3. What is Lance Armstrong up to these days?
4. Who is Kanye West? 

• Instructables 
  

Explore. Share. Make. Instructables.com is where people have uploaded and added what they have made to the internet. It’s everything from Watermelon Salad to a Unicorn Emoji Rainbow Lamp, Jello Shots to a Hidden Go Pro Security Camera hidden inside a book.

People have chronicled their projects, taking time to put all of these together to share with other people how they did it. you can download all of the instructions on the iOS, Android or Windows apps or by PDF from the website.

You’ll be really surprised by the wide range of projects on the site - there are some 2970 pages of projects, and it may inspire you to try something. Alternatively it’ll just make you feel even less creative and wonder why you’re missing the creative urge...

• Printable Paper 

Here’s a website you may not have known you needed - it allows you to print out paper. From Graph paper to Lined Paper to Monthly or Weekly Budgets to Game Templates to Calendars, to Lists, to Printable Games and Printable Teacher Resources, it’s a ridiculously useful website that will, in a bid, save you from having to run out and buy new notebooks or workbooks.

All templates are free to download.

My Progress Bar

You know that awkward moment where you’re just getting into work and - oh no - your computer has to pause while it’s installing critical system updates so all you can do is go have a coffee or a break or go home early to work from there? Annoying, isn’t it?

Go to www.myprogressbar.com, choose your operating system, choose what time you’d like to not be using your computer for and then decide what you’ll do with your free time. Okay, so it probably won’t fool most savvy system admins, but if someone’s looking at your empty desk wondering where you are, it’s probably better than a post-it note on your screen saying you’re gone fishing…

• Chill the Lion  

Fancy some major procrastination? Take your mouse, click it and watch a lion smile. Almost like a Minecraft lion, this emerged online a couple of weeks ago and has been charming people with its simplicity. 

The lion sits there. When the fan that you control is blowing the lion smiles. His head follows the lion. You’ll be surprised by how long you spend on it. Now someone has put it to Darude’s Sandstorm. Magic.

• Happier

Would you keep track of what makes you happy? In a positivity wave taking America at the moment, live journaling and recording the ordinary but great in your life has taken off in a huge way. Happier is one example, where you record what small happy moments made your day and made you feel - quote - awesome- and they might help someone else smile.

Research shows people who focus on finding a few positive things about their day are happier, healthier, and less stressed. They believe that every day - even the tough ones - has at least one small happy moment and created Happier to encourage you to find it.

Named by TIME Magazine as one of the best apps available, on Happier you can:

• Capture and share a few happy moments every day
• Get an uplifting positivity boost whenever you need it
• Be inspired to do more things that make you happier

Would something like this take off in Ireland though?

• What’s on the other side of the earth?

If you dug a tunnel from Ireland right through the centre of the earth to the other side, where would you end up? In the Tasman Sea South East of New Zealand is the answer. This, a distance measurement tool and other various map tools make it a website you’ll spend a bit of time on. Mostly, I’d say, trying to find a country you can tunnel from through the earth to… (North Russia to Southern Chile…)

• Music Splitter - Multitrack Love 

One of my favourite musical sites at the moment - choose one of 40 tracks - everything from Amy Winehouse’s Rehab through Queen’s Don’t Stop Me Now to Village People’s YMCA and turn on or off the various sound tracks that make the song work.

For example, in R.E.M’s Losing My Religion, you have Voice, Guitar, Bass and Drums. You can turn each of  them off to see what the track sounds like without them.

Similarly with The Beatles When I’m 64, if we lose Clarinet, Bass, Piano and Drums you’ll get a very different track to the one you’re used to…

• And finally... country and Westeros music

The Game of Thrones theme song as a Western tune. Pretty epic!
