Mashups

I explored the Flickr Mashups -- what fun! I loved the examples: Spell with Flickr, Montager, and Flickr Color Pickr. Also, the Flash app An Interesting 2005 was great. What amazing photos!

I think my favorite is Montager because there are multiple levels to this one. Enter a tag or image and it creates a photo montage that imitates the lead image displayed on the left. Changing the photo or tag creates a new montage with new photos. Interesting effect.

Okay, so I've been a little behind in updating my blog. I'll be playing catch-up for a while. Here is a photo I uploaded into Flickr. Maddie had a trip to San Fran for a band concert and this is a photo she took. So much for Exercise #5 ... it's on to #6!

Check out the book I'm reading now

By now, most of you know that I'm reading the book "I'm Not the New Me" by Wendy McClure. It's a funny book about her Weight Watchers experience. But one of the funniest things are the vintage Weight Watchers recipe cards that I've been sharing.

Here's a link to the recipe cards: http://www.candyboots.com/wwcards.html
