On a few interesting photos...

Posted August 2, 2005 2:44 PM.

The big fun nerd news of the last twenty-four hours has - of course - been Flickr's interestingness pages which use information like how many people have commented or tagged or 'favourited' or viewed each image to pull out the coolest ones of the day and make them browsable. Some of my favourites include: A picture of the Bay Bridge (which is CC so I can show it below as long as I credit Thomas Hawk), Pure Luck, Eye Love U, Infinite Flickr #69, For Mother and we unwind the coils fo complexity and find elegance. Pretty stunning.

Again its you Americans that come up with this crap!
Stop it and go out and get some friends!!!
