Jam Drops
Two of my favourite (and smallest) friends, B & C, sent me some biscuits this week. They are very yummy "Jam Drops" which I had never heard of before, but definitely want to try again some time. Thanks girls!
Wordle
Wordle was one of the cool web sites mentioned at the ECAWA conference (sorry - can't remember who by). It takes a heap of text, or an RSS feed as an input and turns it into a tag cloud. If you dont know what that is, it's easier to demonstrate than explain. This is a wordle of Shakespear's "As You Like It".
I copied the text from this page then pasted it into wordle. I then went through and (by right clicking the biggest words) removed all the characters' names and stage directions. I also changed the font to an old fashioned serif.
This one is the RSS feed of the bookmarks on del.icio.us tagged with ecawa

I love this photo of Bush at the volleyball
I love this AFP photo of George Bush visiting the US Olympic team from the Times of India. He looks pretty human.

And a phone photo?
A photo from my motorola phone could be more of a challenge. It sends some non-standard headers that some parsers have problems with.
(it's not posterous' fault the photo is sideways, the whole Suncorp Stadium is built on an angle. Go the Dogs.)
