Learning Side by Side

Generating a Newspaper Clipping (Or a Talking Owl?)

January 31, 2008 · No Comments




While tweeting (of course) on January 14, 2008, I ran across a tweet from @tammyworcester about this neat little image “generator”. I decided to go back and try this del.icio.us‘ed resource called the Newspaper Clipping Generator by fodey.com.  Take a look at what I created in a matter of minutes (with most of my time spent writing the text displayed in the image).

Much of what I wrote above was true other than me giving a lecture.  C’mon! Who would really clamor to come see me speak about myself.  I’d much rather share out some great resources on the web.

Fodey.com also provides other “generators” as well.  Here is an animated “talking owl” gif generator I created much more quickly than the clipping above.

Here are the links to both generators, and please do let me know how much time I distracted you from doing other things you should have been doing.

Do you have some nice tools on the web you think I should learn about?  Please share your learning with me.
