kyburgGrab bag time. Web-style.
Back in the bad old days, when Yahoo may have had only a few hundred thousand sites in its crawl, they had a nifty little gadget on their search page to send you to a random URL. A different one every time.
I ganked that. Put it on my own pages as an easter egg. And I don't think they've posted it in a long, long time - but I still have the code.
Go nuts. Language choice just as random. Different site every time. Just go back and click again.
Just like that old box of chocolates. No, you have no idea what you're gonna get.
Another little fun site? Woot. One deal, one day. No kidding.
And if you like pictures - here are two news services 'photos of the week' collections, changes every week:
The might BEEP's collection.
Here's the daily from SF Gate.
Need to test your email server? Got a lot of lentils left over or received a box of loquats from the neighbor's tree?
Find a recipe and email it to yourself. Used this one for years for just that purpose. (I'm making the Millet Salad for company potluck this year.)
Go nuts. Enjoy!
