5.12 // The one with the transformers

So this one is all about the Rollyo, which reminds me of bubble tape for some reason. "6 feet of bubblegum for you, not them!"

I did a search for Transformers, because I'm going to see that at the $3 theaters today. So I created a rollyo to add to my blog where you can search my site for movies I may speak of and/or movies in general and the web...because I like movies.

My internet is being horrendously slow today and has been since last night. This is proving to be very frustrating while trying to bang out my 23 things.

At first, I was going to compare Rollyo to RSS feeds. Where I see the potential good use in general for them but I just don't see them being useful to myself. Actually, I'm going to stick with that. Hey I mean, It's cool to create your own sort of search engine of sorts, especially for your own site. Especially if you're a regular blogger and this could be used for people to search your own blogger. However, I just don't see it being useful or used by me anytime in the near future... which is not to say I won't use it.
Cause I did just find...OPTIMUS PRIME!

5.11 // The one with the ghost

Library Thing would be a good thing for my mother who has more books than she even realizes and peruses saturday morning yard sales for more books! I, on the other hand, have two book shelves with books and a box or two in my closet of all the books from when I was a kid, like The Piggy in the Puddle, which was one of my favorites!

So... I created one and added the first couple books I knew I had off the top of my head.
To be honest, I didn't spend a lot of time with it, finding the exact books with the exact photos...namely the Harry Potter ones. Some don't even have photos. I didn't look into that. Should I have?

{a few minutes pass}

Okay fine, I investigated a few.
I see that you can edit the books in your library.
but the page seems to be running slow and I just don't have the patience!
I'll fiddle with it later.

Here's my Library Thing...

5.10 // The one with the ponies

A little bit of playtime.

Well I've had a Yahoo! Avatar, pretty much since they've existed. So here's a peek at my yahoo Avatar.

but just so I'm not a cheater and using things I already had...

Made myself some totally Old school 80's things using generators found here on The generator blog! (omg! they use blogger too!)

OK. So first I created a Garbage Pail Kid...

My Garbage Pail Kid

It's an uncreative name... I don't know. She's crying and got beat up and yeah.

Then I created a My Little Pony phoenix!

I don't think it necessarily looks like a phoenix? but uh... it's pretty and cute and it's kind of cooler than the Garbage Pail Kid!
So... I created another one!

My Little Dragon Pony

This time a baby boy Dragon Pony.

Cute!
