Subject: Fleeting Image live

Hi All,

Sorry for the spam nature, but I just put a site live I built with a group
of usual and not-so-usual suspects (see below) that is simple and constantly
satisfying. Take a look.

>> www.fleetingimage.org <http://www.fleetingimage.org> <<

The premise is very straightforward, though the site itself is rather
crytpic. Fleeting Image is simply a viewing window of randomly presented
interesting pictures posted by other viewers. You can look at as many or as
few as you want. No branding, no pop-ups, no login, no back, no cookies, no
ads. Just a bunch of interesting pictures one after the next. More simply
put, the Fleeting Image experience *is* the destination.

If you enjoy it, please forward to your peeps. This is not the kind of site
one stumbles upon in a google search, but it is one of those sites that
benefits exponentially from increased participation. Whenever you see an
'upload photo" link you can add a picture to the entire set. (As an early
user I highly recommend you do so, it'll likely be there forever. =)

Images will constantly be added to the site (anyone, including you!, are
highly encouraged to add appropriate pixs) and images will be constantly
removed (mostly those that simply are not in harmony with the site's
purpose). The viewing order is always randomized as well. Therefore
everytime you come back to the site you'll see new images … it's like the
url that keeps giving….. Check out the "questions?" page for more details
and fleeting mp3s.

Many thanks to Eugene Chen, Molly D and D. Boyer for site development work
and Timmmi P., Tina B., Mike Royer and Larry Smith for suggestions and
feedback. (Larry even recommends making it your homepage and starting your
day off right ;).

That's it, sorry for the interruption, you may now return to your regularly
scheduled activity …. after you do a run thru www.fleetingimage.org
<http://www.fleetingimage.org>

Peace on Earth,

Bee Mindful,
aka Ted Rheingold
