How To Destroy The Web 2.0 Look

Aha… Sylar wird so lange coole Fähigkeiten absorbieren, bis er zum Vulkanier wird!

Guckst du hier!

Sucht ihr noch ein Bild für ein Layout oder ein wenig Photoshop Fun? Creative Commons sollte es sein und nach Möglichkeit auch kommerziell einsetzbar … kein Problem dank flickrCC. Einfach Suchwort und Nutzungsoptionen auswählen und losbrowsen. Nicht alle Web 2.0 Ideen sind total nutzlos

Eine kleine Sammlung von Photoshop-Kunstwerken. Keine Ahnung, was der Rest der Seite sagen will, aber die Bilder sind cool

Nicht für Menschen, aber für Maschinen.. Sehr beeindruckend fand ich das AMARC in Arizona: Über 5.500 Flugzeuge… Respekt!

Hi Folks,

during the last weeks and possibly even months I collected a lot of interresting stuff for you. As I currently don’t feel like writing tons of blog entries you’ll get the compact version today. And here we go (in no particular order):

• Beryl
  is a OpenGL powered window manager with lots of nice effects like burning menus and 3D features. See YouTube for a lot of action clips or see this video for a impressive first glance.
  
• FlickrSpy – The Flickr Peepshow!
  This is what I’d call a useful AJAX application. See a endless list of the latest images uploaded at Flickr. Nothing more, but nothing less.
• 83 Beautiful WordPress Themes You (Probably) Haven’t Seen
  presented by smashing magazine. There are some real gems, but somehow I really like the default WordPress theme
• Shutdown Day
  Shutdown you computer a whole day!!! on March, 24th
• Command & Conquer 3
  is about to hit the streets and this might be the best time do download and play the 1.2 GB demo version!
• YUI-Hosting
  Yahoo is willing to host their your YUI files. This definitely looks like a win-win situation. You can save hundreds of bytes of traffic, and Yahoo will get every information about your users they could ever dream of But on the other hand, Google and it’s thousand tools ain’t better.
• MiniAjax.com
  A showroom of nice looking simple downloadable DHTML and AJAX scripts. There’s a site for everything out there!
  via pixelgraphix
• Seitwert
  A german page ranking site. Enter your german domain name and get ranked. This page’s Seitwert is 30.60 / 100, but Yahoo’s is also only 49.39 / 100. Judge for yourself

Well, I think that’s it for today, but be sure, there’s more to come!

Check out this fine list of Hackers (or Crackers, if you dare) from lots of different movies, yay!

Top 20 Hackers in Film History

And the best of all … you’ll get a movie quote from every one, for your growing collection

Praktische Erfindungen wie die Duftdose oder der Fensterschlafer aus einfachen Haushaltsgegenständen.

Today I’d like to present two interresting applications realized using the flickr API.

First there is fastr, a game where you see some images and have to guess the common tag all images share. It’s a bit complicated to explain. Just give it a go and you’ll see what it’s about. Oh, and for the non-native speakers, it’s a great chance to polish your english vocabulary.

The second one is retrievr. In this application you can draw or upload what you are looking for, and it will go and find similar images for you. There is even a gallery of other peoples sketches where you can check out their search results. Both funny and usefull!
