Gotta Love Ink II
The tattoo above doesn’t really need any explanation. I think it’s beautyfully done, it curves nice around the body. The tattoo artist deserves a price in my opinion. Damn…you Gotta Love Ink!
I like tag cloud art
www.wordle.net is a perfect example of how I can literally spent a couple of hours with physically doing nothing, but my brain is making all sorts of cartwheels 
It is fun, it is artsy, and makes you think about good things.
In essence, the Java app generates a piece of ‘art’, based on the words from the rss / atom feed of any given web page or blog. You can also add words or a piece of text yourself if you want to. Then, it generates something pretty! You can alter all sorts of things, like color scheme, fonts, placement of words in percentage’s (more vertical/horizontal etc) So, by the time I was done making the example below, half my workday was done!
Please click to enlarge, and marvel at its nerdish simplicity, yet perfect awesomeness. It’s words generated from this blog, placement of words and picking of the colors all done by the zero’s and one’s that in the end make up for the code that generates the picture. I like it!
