Online Scrabble

Does playing Scrabble with people across the other side of the world count as a paradigm shift?

What if they fly in and take up on a computer just across the room>

Just wondering!javascript:void(0)

tag galaxy

In case you missed it, tag galaxy (www.taggalaxy.com) searches flckr tags and does soem wonderful things with the resulting photos.

Try it now!

time warp

and of course, all of this happens in the future...

the last post was written in the afternoon of the 16th in Australia - according to the post, it's yesterday.

Nice idea - yesterday was a diamond of a day!

Today?

Monday.

Tell me why!

Not quite the real deal

This isn't a real paradigm shift, but it certainly might help you find one.

My gun bro sent me a gem connection to www.wordle.com, and after loading a doc or two, it came up with this:



and then the same stuff but arranged differently, this time on the wordle site: http://wordle.net/gallery/Cambodia_1

It will do the same for you.

More explanation?

OK. If you go to wordle you can paste in any text and it will generate an image using the words in the text, sized according to how many times the word appears in the text. A rudimentary basic text analysis.

And it will do the same with your del.icio.us tags, if you ask it nicely.

THEN you can change the colour, font, layout in some interesting ways.

Paradigm shift? No, but like www.taggalaxy.com, it sure heps you see things in a different way.
