Default Cool -- in a geeky kind of way

Hello

I'm bored today! So wandering aimlessly around the internet, there is a site "inspired" by Google. On this site when you enter a word it draws a (mostly!) related picture from that word.

So entering Subaru (http://c6.org/toogle/index.php?phrase=subaru) produces:



The url is http://c6.org/toogle/index.php.

If you enter less than wholesome words (as if!) it will produce a related picture. You have been warned!

Steve.

Hello

Nothing strange happens when I close the page.

That's the picture of a guy who bit a railway cap (explosive thingy) and blew his face off. Nothing to do with motorbikes, although I've seen it banded around BBS's as evidence that you should wear a helmet on a motorbike. Weird.

Is this some kind of colourblind test? All I can see is a blurred mess.

Hello

Well, it is a vague blur. Remember that the picture is made up of just text. However you should see a Subura in the picture I posted. If you squint a bit, anyway.

Otherwise, yes, probably you are colourblind (not joking).

Hey Chris,

Nope. It's the word repeated in different colours. All those computer geeks used to do "Ascii Art" and it's the same.
