Webcam

If you prefer to see white-eyed assassin bugs (or other insects that might be on display), go to the web cam of the Insect Zoo in Ames, Iowa. For a certain amount of time, you can control the camera.

Thanks for the link, John!

More interesting stuff at the Exploratorium

The Exploratorium has a cool web cam on its roof. It seems that users can point it to one of eight points of interest by clicking on a number below the picture.

I’m not quite sure how it works… There’s only one camera, so what happens if several people want to point the camera in different directions?

They also have an intersting site: The Heart of the Matter – Inside CERN, the world’s largest particle accelerator.

Ooze

Outragoeous Ooze – a recipe to make you own, from the Exploratorium.

Cooking

Do you like salmon? I do, but I’m not sure I want to try to cook salmon in a dishwasher.

Interestingly, this really seems to work. At least, other people cook their salmon in the dishwasher as well – and the surreal gourmet even dares to add dirty dishes and soap!
