Tag Galaxy

This is a a great way to search for Flickr photos. Tag Galaxy provides a 3D search engine (it's actually a photo-sphere you can spin around with the mouse) with visual representations of any data you'd like to find inside Flickr. You can insert an initial tag to search or choose a popular one. Once you find a picture you like, click it to have a look and click it again to get a close up and link directly to the Flickr profile of the photo's user.

Cooliris

I think it's always a good exercise to try something new each day. Cooliris for instance, can be downloaded for Google Chrome and is the official media app for Google's new superphone Nexus One. Have a look at it here.

Happy 2010!

Nothing like a new year for a fresh start with tons of creativity. Most things here are useless but who cares? Useless is not necessarily bad :)
