A picture says a thousand words

I have come to love the unpredictable manner that this site is set up like. There is sort of a schism between what you think is going to happen and what is actually shown. As I explored the website I noticed all the different enclaves within it. The initial site shows a bunch of different pictures; each one leading to a new story. The pictures a quite eye catching. Once you pick a link to follow you are immediately called to look at the rest of the pictures and read the story behind them. Each post is so different, but so interesting.  It has to take a plethora of creativity in someone to come up with the ideas of the site. I think this is a good way to find new ideas or even get interested in something new. It would be could to start your own site like this or maybe a series of post similar. This site also linked me to a site called Wall to Watch which is very neat as well. My favorite post on there is the photo manipulation one. It shows different pictures of ordinary items like fruit, and blends them together. In the first picture it has an apple's outside with an orange on the inside. It actually took me a short moment to realize what was wrong with the picture because it looked so real. Both of these sites are worth your while to check out and will probably keep you occupied for some time!
