How Bout This Weather?

I would kill to see clouds like these! Nebraska, here I come.

Fun with Textamerica

A friend of mine put together a very amusing Feed/Feed sponsors medley moblog video post, and now I'm sharing it with you. Do I really look this dorky on television every day? Don't answer that.

Damn Good Website: YubNub

Tired of saving your web favorites locally? YubNub is an Internet command line tool that allows you to assign "commands" (think keyword shortcuts) to any URL you like. For example, type in "/." and YubNub directs you to slashdot.org. "Sarah" catapults you to this very page (I created it myself, naturally). As long as your command isn't already taken, you could dream up whatever cute little interweb nicknames your little heart desires, assign them to your favorite URLs, and they'll be consistent no matter what computer you hop onto. Check out the current command list to see what others are adding, and then add YubNub to your Firefox search bar.

I'm Sorry But...

...I just can't help myself.

My Monday has been made.

Add Google Maps Directions to Your Site

Want to integrate Google Maps into your website/blog quickly and painlessly? Thanks to a tutorial at Malevolent Design, we all can!

Here's the code:

<form action="http://maps.google.com/maps" method="get">
<p><label for="saddr">Your ZIP code</label>
<input type="text" name="saddr" id="saddr" value="" />
<input type="submit" value="Go" />
<input type="hidden" name="daddr" value="[destination]" />
<input type="hidden" name="hl" value="en" /></p>
</form>

And here's how you and I could compare our cross country paths to Savannah, Georgia:
(replace "[destination]" with "Savannah, GA")

See you in the Garden of Good and Evil!
