“Groovy Motherfucker”

iPhone app to take your Instagram snaps and turn them into a mailed postcard for $0.99. Simple and clever hack using the consistency of Instagram pics (always square) to its advantage.

Glorious collection of retrofuturism.

Best thing I’ve seen all week.

Like this app a lot. Best way to describe it is “Visual Twitter”. Crazy simple to quickly snap and share a photo, and get a stream of what your friends are up to. (Also: fellow Dogpatch Labs residents, and Mike is on the Awesome Foundation SF board.)

Behind the scenes photos from the set dresser on the first Muppet movie.

I like that the 1962 ball is called “Mr. Crack”

What San Francisco would look like without hills. Obvious in retrospect, but brilliantly done.

Lovely Google Chrome extension which replaces the “six screenshots” page on new tabs with a great snapshot from Flickr.

Loving “Fluidr” as an interface for browing Flickr. Here, check out my Flickr favourites as an example.

Exactly what you think it is.

Exactly as amazing as you think it is.

Love love LOVE Flickr’s new gallery feature. Curate a collection, selecting from the whole of Flickr’s massive photoset. Here’s my first example, a sampling of the best basset hound shots.

There is nothing I do not love about this photo — not least the look on Youk’s face!

Stream of photos posted to Twitter. Crappy cellphone cameras aplenty, but it’s fascinating to watch.

Surprisingly funny Lego constructions of New York sights.

Why I’m glad I’m not in Boston. (Though the arc of Dunkin Donuts coffee is making me somewhat “homesick”)

Gorgeously playful app which takes your digital photos and makes them look like old Polaroid snaps. Features loving touches like having to wait for the photo to “develop”.

Some really outstanding photos of Barack Obama and the hubbub surrounding him in the lead-up to him winning the party nomination.

A handful of photos from Joy’s and my trip in a hot-air balloon, high above “wine country”.

Dogs, which are upside-down. Duh.

Symmetrize Flickr photos based on tag. Ones that turned out interesting to me were “bassethound”, “kiss”, “hippo” and, disturbingly, “boobs”.
