Today, I had another one. A few minutes ago I got all 'gee-whiz' over something that Microsoft is doing. Initially, they were the source of these times but since the advent of the Internet, many more of my moments have come from others.
I stumbled upon Microsoft's Popfly.
It's so un-Microsoft-like. It's an open concept, web-programming, online interface, sort of thingy. I suppose if the recipient user doesn't have Silverlight loaded on their machine, it won't work. I'm curious about that, so please leave a comment if the situation merits. I mashed up a pre-made photo viewing app with data from my Flickr photostream to come up with this. The amazing thing is I did it in about three minutes. Unfortunately, it takes about that long to load. This makes it useless.
