Randomly Wednesday

Things have been incredibly hectic lately, which doesn’t justify the lack of recent posts, but maybe at least explains it somewhat. And this one isn’t likely to be art, either. It’s just a list of some cool projects, posts, and articles I’ve stumbled across lately:

Wolfwalk (NC State): This one’s even better on your iPhone. It’s a georeferenced history of the N.C. State campus that also uses your phone’s GPS capabilities to provide a guided walking tour. It’s just cool.
This is just one of those articles that makes me want to contact the author and offer to volunteer my labor just for a chance to play with this collection. It makes me all giddy and warm just thinking about it.
And this one, via Tame the Web, is just something I could have used earlier this week.

The 2009 version doesn’t involve a kid sitting in a lawn chair with a big sign by the side of the road. That’s good.

I’ll post a link to the larger project later, but here’s something I’ve been working on at work this week. Mind you, I’m wrking on a much cooler and more complicated set-up for Groceteria when I get a second here and there. More on that later, too.
