Oh the Irony

Wanna know a secret? I'm going on vacation in 3 days and not only won't I be online every day, I won't even sleep under a roof for most of a week while I hike Pictured Rocks in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. So from the perspective of someone who won't even be indoors, much less blogging, Twitter so intensifies the frequency of feedback as to be comical. Here's my Tweet setup http://twitter.com/VillageIdiocy. Gotta go!

Horseshoes and Hand Grenades

http://windowseat.ca/viscosity/create.php Very fun. Not as many portrait-, and way too many font-related sites, and so many generally that I began to bog down checking them out when half ended in file format incompatability or issues with finding pictures on or saving work to a shared computer. This I like though. Here's the drawing itself http://windowseat.ca/viscosity/drawing.php?id=22329

Storytelling

I could spend hours looking at all these 3rd party apps but the ones I've glommed onto -- Bubblr, Loopy, Flickeur -- are all similar. The thing that interest me is the way that sequenced images demand the construction of some narrative meaning. Technology really has human importance in proportion to its capability to tell stories, and Flickeur especially has potential for a sort of neat absurdist approach.
