Hello NETIZENS!!!!

 

            Guess what! Today’s blog is all about guys who just love to browse the web simply with no actual purpose, browse all over, search images, web sites and all cool stuff. Really sometimes it’s hard to tell how and when time passed away! I tell you what; we belong to the era when browsing was 60 bucks per hour and that’s when I learned about the internet, hoe to browse, create email IDs and I still have (almost) email IDs active created then; and I was just a school kid. It was the enthusiasm that made me feel nothing of the money I spent in that hour against the work I did over the net.   I tell you what; the first time I went to a cyber café, I just typed espnstar.com and wondered over the pictures that flashed after 10 minutes and just for that I paid 60 bucks. I did such stuff many times, over and over again but never failed to awe over the things that I learned even if it were of the scale of nano or pico whatever you say.

            This time, by the corner I discovered a site; in fact many but I shall discuss them later; that defined human creativity and the extent it can dumbstruck another human. Over the decade of internet browsing (obviously) never ever I have found that I cannot browse or keep on browsing the net for ever.

 

            Well, coming back to my discovery (don't laugh if I call it so because that’s what it should be called according to English); it’s a web site feeding from Flickr.com that displays images in an absolutely astounding and innovative manner. The concept combines the fact that today’s modern search is all built around the tags; and really the search thing is as enormous as any galaxy. Tags, linked tags, associated tags, related tags, etc all work together; and in a day by day improving algorithm to serve your queries better. It’s TAGGALAXY.COM!

            The taggalaxy.com, as I said feeds from flickr.com brings you images from flickr.com in a very refreshing and vibrant manner and don't know why they seem more vibrant, colorful and real than they’d have normally felt if browsed over their original sites (well that’s only my mind going wayward).

 The image “http://papervision3d.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/taggalaxy.jpg?w=400&h=400” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

            As you type in those letters in your address bar your get black flash embedded page with ‘Tag Galaxy’ encrypted besides a dwarf white galaxy revolving smoothly appears. Here comes the irony that I often face; your about to start a search where you can type anything you wish, yet you find yourself blank and blink what to type for at least 2 minutes!!! Hell, leave that and type whatever you like in the box. Say N85 (I don't know why I was not able to type two separate words and it’d always takes them as a single word or is it that there is a space which is supposed to be between two words but is not just visible enough), the next moment you see a green planet immerging from the black of the universe and slowly appear its satellites! Noah emerges a star and then slowly appears its planets, yeah! The green star slowly rotates with its planets too slowly revolving around it in different shapes and sizes. You can zoom into the system further and out as well, rotate the system in any direction you want. If N85 is what you want to see images of then go on click the bright star; else click the planets that has elated tags like Nokia, Mobile Phone, Camera, etc. On clicking a related tag i.e. a planet a new galaxy appears with the star being the original plus the planet tag that you clicked e.g. is you had clicked Nokia from the galaxy of N85, then the new system would have s star names ‘Nokia+N85’. The main act begins when finally you are satisfied with the central stars name and you click on it. The crude shining star turns into   globe with visible squares or boxes whatever you’d like to call it.  And slowly images start landing on the surface boxes and soon the globe becomes a globe of images you had searched for. It’s cool in full screen! Further if you click any particular image, it pops up n air only to be enlarged in its full bloom after just another click, with all the details engraved in it in Flickr by its owner.

 

            Fantastic experience if you see it in a good monitor with a good internet connection!

 

            There are more but as I told you, shall discuss it later. GO check it out!!!
