Cubescape is a great AJAX based web site that lets you drop cubes in a field. This lets you come up with elaborate isometric art, depending on how much time you are willing to spend on it. Till recently, users could save their creations, and people could browse through them. That functionality has been recently disabled, although there are a few great creations still searchable through Google images.
I have a friend who has been throwing fun-filled barbeques for Memorial Day for countless years. It has become an ingrained tradition with her friends, and the event is always replete with delicious treats and treasured memories. This year my friend really got ambitious and decided to scan old photos from the many years she had been hosting the party. She had several boxes of old memories and dutifully scanned them all, so she could integrate the old photos with her more recent digital ones. Her vision was to present a comprehensive digital photo slideshow of all the photos from every party (all 15 years of them). What a fantastic idea and a great way to entertain her guests as they waited for their next margarita to be blended.
