clipper's remarks: For $6 a month, subscribe to a service that can access your POP3 email, read it to you over the phone, and allow you to dictate replies. Very cool. Also lets you manage contacts and calendar, though I'm not yet sure I get how that part works.

clipper's remarks: An incredible collection of illustrations of strange and beautiful shapes taken from nature: microscopic organisms, fungi, sea animals, etc. Hard to describe, but worth a look.

Food history timeline: culinary history of the human race

Fri, 07 Dec 2007 19:35:42 GMT

clipped by: enbar
clipper's remarks: Very cool. Plots the emergence of various kinds of food over historical time. Includes some recipes and reference articles.

Clip Source: www.foodtimeline.org

Ever wonder what foods the Vikings ate when they set off to explore the new world? How Thomas Jefferson made his ice cream? What the pioneers cooked along the Oregon Trail? Who invented the potato chip...and why?

Welcome to the Food Timeline! Food history presents a complicated buffet of popular lore and contradictory facts. Some people will tell you it's impossible to express this topic in exact timeline format. They are correct. Most foods we eat are not invented; they evolve. About culinary research.

The Landmark Trust: vacation in a historic building

Fri, 19 Oct 2007 19:10:16 GMT

clipped by: enbar
clipper's remarks: The Trust buys up historic, umm, landmarks and rehabs them into vacation rentals. Sounds very cool. Most, but not all locations are in the UK. Anyone tried this?

Clip Source: www.landmarktrust.org.uk

First we must raise the funds to restore the building. Once restored, our buildings are available for holidays, all year around. There are 184 Landmarks throughout Britain and the Channel Islands, including 23 on Lundy Island, four in Italy and four in the USA. They include forts, manor houses, mills, cottages, castles, gatehouses, follies and towers.

Through the letting income, your enjoyment of these buildings pays for their future upkeep, so that they will never again fall into decay.

clipped by: enbar
clipper's remarks: Not 100% functional yet (you have to supply a feed rather than a list of sites, which is supposedly coming), but it seems very cool and potentially very useful. Give it a feed URL and it will generate a clickable, interactive, live slideshow of all the pages in the feed, which can be annotated by anyone (not just Diigo members) with no downloads.
