Dumpr

Like Flickr's Big Huge Labs photo mashup pages, Dumpr enables you to muck about with photos to create interesting effects.

Take a picture of a gorgeous girl like this . . .


and do this . . .

or this . . .

What fun!

But wait! There's more! You can also do Christmas tree decorations, lego, jigsaws and cartoons. There are 16 different things you can do. Check it out and have fun.

More fun from Helene. Try this little quiz and have your name converted to a class listed in the Dewey Decimal System. Here's me:

Heidi's Dewey Decimal Section:

908 Kinds of persons treatment

Heidi = 85949 = 859+49 = 908


Class:
900 History & Geography


Contains:
Travel, biographies, ancient history, and histories of continents.



What it says about you:
You're connected to your past and value the things that have happened to you. You've had some conflicted times in your life, but they've brought you to where you are today and you don't ignore it.

Find your Dewey Decimal Section at Spacefem.com

Here's a nifty mashupy thing, Amaztype - it's an amazon search engine where you can get your search results as book covers, video/DVD covers or CD covers.

Once you've done your search and got your text, you need to do Ctrl+Alt+PrtScrn and save it to a Publisher document to play with.

Thought it might be useful for library posters and stuff.

Week 10 - Mashups

Not another thing to join, another sign-up to remember. Once I got over this hurdle, I found it immensely enjoyable to create my own mashup......

How clever are some of the webistes we visited? I loved the images associated with maps, googlemaps (including streetview - did you check out your house?)...the starry night sky in Star Viewer, London - a life in google maps....

Will we all be creating calendars with our own photos for Christmas now?

Week 10 Mashups

Highlites this week have been London a Life, and Voicefreds; I have had the DNA mashup from Bighugelabs on my flickr profile for some time and use it regularly because it gives more detailed info than the standard flickr stats which only pro accounts get anyway. The poster is the motivator from BHL.

Mashups cont . . .

Having spent a fair time puddling about with web 2.0 and ignoring the trolley of cataloguing at the side of my desk this week, I'd PROMISED myself I would knuckle down and get through said cataloguing . . .

However, my beloved side-kick here has been doing Week 10 and asking me questions and I've got sucked in big time. We've had quite a giggle. She'll hate me telling you this (sotto vocce), but she Warhol-ed herself and ended up with a fabulous beard. All shredded now sadly . . .

Thought I'd let you know about two other mashup things while I remembered.

First up is AutoMotivator. Similar to the Motivator in Big Huge Labs. Helps you create posters. How creative could we get at work? Very I think.

Here's one I prepared earlier:

The second is Wordle. Have I mentioned it before? Take a muckle great wad of text and put it in Wordle and see what happens.

This is how To a Louse came out:

Now, isn't that so much easier to read??
