I was googling around for a free (and legally re-usable) text dictionary, and found this one with a very creative software license.

WordWeb free version may be used indefinitely only by people who take at most two commercial flights (not more than one return flight) in any 12 month period. People who fly more than this need to purchase the Pro version if they wish to continue to use it after a 30-day trial period.

Guess I’ll categorize this under both Technology and Travel.

Usually I find tag clouds overwhelming + useless, but this one is more fun. This was  generated from my tags on delicious. Discovered via Paddy3118.

Via MyBlogLog “hot in my community” list. Great. Luckily my house has asbestos (not metal) siding. Anyone selling kits or pre-made “throwies”?

LED Throwies are an inexpensive way to add color to any ferromagnetic surface in your neighborhood. A Throwie consists of a lithium battery, a 10mm diffused LED and a rare-earth magnet taped together. Throw it up high and in quantity to impress your friends and city officials.
