Kurt Halsey's Art - Great cartoons that have great depth and emotion. -both of the above via an older post I found accidentally from Karen @ Snog Blog when looking for.... Refer 2.1 - A web application that produces "an up-to-the-minute list of referrers, in reverse chronological order, is displayed on a page." The Mondo Screen Salvation Experience - a greyscale screensaver that is much cooler than "Pipes" could ever be. A color version is available here. Use Flash Movie Extract Pilot to save the SWFs and play them on your Pocket PC. DrawBot - "a simple application for MacOSX that allows you to write simple Python scripts that generate two-dimensional graphics." Digital Typography Exhibition: Maria Redin - Type a word and see another word for each letter you use to spell it. Try it, it makes sense. Be sure to browse all of the MIT student works. Shill's Movie Title Screens Page - this site is dedicated to "screen captures of movie title screens." Nothing else. This is amazing! 2,545 titles so far, and still going. Dont' ya just love the Internet??? Comic Sans - The story behind the font, and those who hate it. Meet the creator, Vincent Connare, once again, at Snog Blog. Hey ya better stop that - While I am tempted to link to the "Charlie Brown/Hey Ya" video, I just can't do it. However, I will link to eBaum's world who was sent a "Cease and Desist" letter for hosting it. They'll remove it soon, so go look now. Sand Art Video - I wish I could remember who linked to this, but it is one of the coolest things I've seen on the web in some time. It is a Windows Media file, meaning you can save it to your PC (because you will want to show this to people). Age Maps - Ugh, this is just plain creepy! Mars QT Panoramas - Posted before, but now Panoramas.dk has dedicated a section of their site to Mars panoramas. You need QuickTime to view them though, well duh.

Now, how do you emulate that sucker??? file this underPosted by on February 6, 2004 @ February 6, 2004 09:23 AM 2 folks had something to say |
Thanks for linking to me. If you want to install refer 2.1, be sure you configure the anti-spam section that is, if you don't want paris hilton, britney spears and a whole bevy of nude women appearing in your referrers. You can find it in refer.php. No need to modify .htaccess.
