We made it....

Will be happening...

Thanks everyone for your support....

Final chance to fund MISSION EXPLORE FOOD

Please 'pre-order' a copy by supporting the production of MISSION EXPLORE FOOD.
This is the FINAL DAY to fund us.
If we don't get just over a thousand pounds by 11 tonight we don't get the funding to make what will be a superb book for young and old alike...

9 Eyes

A Google Street View project by Jon Rafman.

Google Street View has a range of wonderful images of course - for example, here's one of the greatest views in the UK...
I need to go back there this year if I can... The view from the top looking back is pretty good too...

Create a State of Chaos

I like this little mash-up which I've seen before, but @dughall reminded me of it.
