This is about the closest thing I’ve seen to a practical implementation of the Total Perspective Vortex.

Taking a bit of a break from Germany photos and work to close some Firefox tabs and share some linky joy:

Forthcoming surge protectors designed for cable management — finally!
Interfacelift has some really cool backgrounds, especially for folks with big or wide screens.
Frustrated with the rigid online interface for making a flickr badge? Make your […]
