Have you ever pondered the story behind the bubble? That floating rainbow sphere has transfixed people for years, but how did it happen? Click on to Bubble.org and pay a visit to Professor Bubbles – the virtual man that, as his name suggests, knows all about bubbles.

It appears that bubbles are a phenomenon of nature, air caught within a waxy, spherical glaze. Bubbles appear to have always been around, but the commercialisation of playing with bubbles seems to have occurred with the popularisation of soap.

With the birth of the bubble sensation came Professor Bubbles and his many adventures. The website serves not only as a source of general bubble based information, but also as a publication of Professor Bubbles’ many journeys, discoveries, creations and imagery.

There is a section for frequently asked questions, a bubble history, forum, games room, link circle and even a purchase page, to enable you to get your hands on all of those bubble-blowing goodies.

Ready to blow? Click here to visit the home of Professor Bubbles.
