World  Because It Was There

Whoa.

If you have a broadband connection (or are very patient) and have Quicktime installed on your computer, go here. Now.

This view of Petra is also good, if not quite as breathtaking as Everest.

Then go to the site's home page to read more.

(Found in a comment on Little Green Footballs, though unfortuntely I've now lost the comment.)

Art  Planarian

Word of the day is planarian. (Yes, but it wouldn't be if — hang on, that's a noun! You cheated! — Ed.)

Life  Poodle Hats

My colleagues at work returned from lunch today to taunt me with their copies of Poodle Hat. I have been somewhat paralysed the last couple of days and haven't had the opportunity to go out and purchase my own copy. Grrr! Oops, time for my meds.

Geek  Hackers, Old Style

Web site of the Day is the MIT Hack Gallery. As they say:

The word hack at MIT usually refers to a clever, benign, and "ethical" prank or practical joke, which is both challenging for the perpetrators and amusing to the MIT community (and sometimes even the rest of the world!). Note that this has nothing to do with computer (or phone) hacking (which we call "cracking").
Some favourites:
The Great Droid
Trogdor the Burninator in Post-It Notes
The Elevator in the Basement
The Gnome Infestation
There are many more, with pictures. There's a Best Of page too, which might be a good place to start.
