I subscribe to The Calm Space and got Your Breathing Space for January in the mail. It’s a very beautiful photo you can download as wallpaper for your computer.
The interesting connection is that the photo is by Amy Palko who I know from Twitter, @amypalko. It’s a small world.
I came across a beautiful photo on Flickr, Tools of my trade.. It’s all rights reserved so you have to go there to see it. The text for that photo says:
Not a museum shot just an old fashioned bloke with a love for old fashioned tools.
When searching for images for my blogs I use Flickr Creative Commons (free if source is given) and iStockphoto where you buy the right to use images.
For more sources, see 100 (Legal) Sources for Free Stock Images.
A favicon (also known as a website icon, shortcut icon, url icon, or bookmark icon) is a 16×16 pixel square icon associated with a particular website or webpage. I use FavIcon from Pics to create my favicons, the service is free and easy to use.
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Great when you are more focused on looks than text content andd simply want “filler text” for testing something.
I use iStockphoto for images and get their Tip of the Week. Today it says:
LIFE and Getty Images, the two most recognized names in photography, have created LIFE.com so you can access millions of breathtaking photographs — for free.
LIFE.com lets you wander through the legendary LIFE and Getty archives, and with more than 3,000 new photos added every day, it also gives you the best pictures of people and places shaping our world.
I have taken a look at the new LIFE – Your World in Pictures and it looks very promising.
A link to this photo turned up in my Twitter stream today, it is a beautiful photo. Original tweet was from @holistic1.
To see a larger version of the photo, go to Lotus Pond at the Library.
I got a link from @amypalko to an amazing photo. It is fairly simple, “only” two hands, but it carries a lot of emotions and makes me think about my own family and our different generations.
The small version here is only a teaser, go see the real photo at Two hands span four generations.
David Airey has a post about The alphabet, but not as we know it. There are several creative alphabets, from a human crafted to photo-based fonts. The human crafted alphabet is shown below, to see the rest of them – click on the link above.

Albert Einstein once went to school in Aarau in Switzerland. Nowadays there is a restaurant named EINSTEIN. It is a really nice place with café, bar and restaurant.
There was a big plastic statue of Albert E outside, probably only temporary.
Compare the size with the house behind the statue, his head is at the second floor.
