Fair enough if he wants it pronounced differently, but erm, yeah, “graphics” doesn’t start with a “j”!! The whole idea that it’s so that it’s like Jif peanut butter, well that’s just daft. {:D

A tourist town in Argentina, which had been submerged under water for almost 25 years, is once again attracting visitors. Epecuen used to be a popular lakeside resort 550 km south-west of Buenos Aires, until a flood covered the town in water in the 1980s. Now the water has receded to reveal a new type of tourist destination. BBC News - Lost Argentine town re-emerges from lake

Do you use Google’s Search by Image? I must be living in a cave, because it’s been around for a year & I only just heard about it a couple of weeks ago. I’ve been using TinEye, which is good, but doesn’t find anywhere near the results Google does, & I do prefer Google’s user interface too.
In the brief time since discovering this nifty tool & testing it thoroughly, I have found an...
BBC News - The art that Google Street View built →
Hyper-lapse photography - a technique combining time-lapse and sweeping camera movements has been a growing trend on video sites. It can be a painstaking process taking precision and hours of stitching images together. As Spencer Kelly discovers, when you take Google Street View and mash it up with a particular photographic technique - this is what you get.

NFC Business Cards, new from MOO →
When you say your first hello and present your business card, you’re offering up a little piece of yourself - but with an NFC card it can be a great big piece. Embedded in the card is a tiny microchip. When it’s touched to a smartphone, the chip asks the phone to do something. Something you’ve told it to. Perhaps download your portfolio, play music or video, load web pages, maps or apps, save your...

lessstupidthanyesterday:
Yesterday I was looking for something I’d learnt before (about adding a new table in SQL, I believe), so I thought I’d search my Tumblr for it. Wrong. It turns out the Tumblr search box doesn’t work. What on Earth? Did I break my theme when I pimped my Tumblr?
It turns out I didn’t. This is quite…
