What a beautiful gift from the PBS folks…

A wonderful site to accompany their NOVA documentaries covering a wide range of fascinating subjects:

Anthropology
Disasters
Earth
Exploration
Flight
Forensics
Health
History
Nature
Physics & Math
Space
Technology

Each documentary has a distinct web page (devoid of any ads, thank God!), beautifully crafted. The content of each is rich with pictures, interactive media and videos (check out the superb The Elegant Universe).

There is simply too much to take into one go…I am sure glad these kind of sites exist in Cyberspace…

The Etch-A-Sketchist

This site is devoted to the works of a talented Etch-A-Sketch artist. I had no idea people used this children’s toy to create such intricate art. This is the kind of stuff I pictured in my head as a kid when sitting down to use the Etch-A-Sketch; but unfortunately my attempts came out as undecipherable jagged lines. The artist goes by etchasketchist and must have incredible patience to go with his artistic talent. Most of his pieces are portraits of celebrities and TV/movie characters including Tony Montana, Martin Scorcese, LL Cool J, and Britney Spears.
