be a requirement.

relating the concepts of rapid speed and randomness."

Vizicious. Vizicious displays a graph of your
delicious links or (this is the new part) your flickr photos.
I had this previously on my old website but I've rewritten it and separated out the presentation portion from the part that does all the real work. This means its alot easier for me to incorporate
new kinds of input (like flickr feeds).
Anyway, if you're not interested in the details just
click here to see my photos tagged 'france' run
through Vizicious.

humor article blog microsoft seattlepi todd-bishop rss ie7 niall-kennedy 2006 Nov 19, 9:25I've had a few thoughts recently on
Polytope Tetris. Constructive thoughts:
- One dimensional view. It should be easy to just hack up the two dimensional view.
- Cross sectional view. I want to have a view that displays cross sections of the game space taken across one dimension all in a row. It'd be nice if this cross sectional view could use any other
view to display each cross section, however I don't think the game's arch easily allows for that. Instead I may have to make it specific to the three dimensional view
Deconstructive thoughts:
- I went to the site the other day and saw that the project had an activity rating in the 90s. And this is while its still marked as Beta. I think I'm going to re-release the exact same bits
under a new name and move it out of Beta or Alpha. I'll call it Platinum Edition.
- There are a number of issues with this whole project. I'm trying to get my thoughts down here.
