Libraries - shunned, composed, or hidden

August 1, 2004

“That is not dead which can eternal lie,

And with strange aeons even death may die…

…in R’lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming.”

If you don’t have time for a quick trip to R’lyeh, you can find the Complete works of H.P. Lovecraft here.

But if you should happen to run into Hastur there, at least bring us a decent snapshot—we’ve seen enough blurry photos of yetis, ufos and the Loch Ness monster to last us a lifetime.

You can brush up on your technique at the Photography Composition Articles Library.

For more hidden stuff, you can always try The Invisible Web Revealed—it’s a bit dated, but it still shows you more than a few of the places that search engines don’t readily peer into.

Libraries, metaphoric or otherwise…For your reading pleasure, here are a few off-the-beaten-path book collections... The Invisible Library -- A catalog of books referred to in other books, but which have never existed. The Forbidden Library -- A catalog of books which have been banned or challenged, including such dangerous tomes as "James and the Giant Peach", "Where's Waldo", and "Fahrenheit 451" (crank that irony knob to "11", wouldya?) Early Christian Writings -- On a related note, a collection of Christian apocrypha, New Testament and Gnostic writings, arranged by estimated date. -----...

Windows Media Center Hidden GamesJust in case you were bored with your Windows Media Center Edition 2005 box (wait for it -- the season finales are almost over), it turns out that there are some hidden games you can access. You should find you have Otto's Magic Blocks and Gem Master on your system as well. Whilst these are not fully installed by default you can quickly and easily add them. I'm not sure how to describe Otto's Magic Blocks but Gem Master is a more complicated version of Tetris....


H.P. LivejournalcraftThis is hilarious—The Morning News has “The Livejournal of Zachary Marsh"—essentially an H.P. Lovecraft “cult of Dagon" style story, with extra added bloggy goodness—like a “Which Muppet Are You?” quiz, pictures of ducks, etc… It’s a hoot, at least if you happen to be a Lovecraft fan… The responsible party appears to be Matthew Baldwin, who can more usually be found at Defective Yeti, where he is having a lot of additional fun with a “Cinematic Supervillain Tournament” chart, putting together lineups to follow Alien Vs. Predator… -----...


4 Hidden Costs of WordPress Sites I've written before about WordPress and similar "baby CMS" products being great alternatives for small business web sites. They can be configured to have the same look and feel as the typical "static" small business site, with the following added advantages: Old pages can be updated and new pages can be added without having to have in-house web design skills, or hire a developer to make minor changes. The "blogging" side of the system can be configured as a press release section, article library or other form of regularly added content, encouraging visitor retention, re-visitation and added search engine traffic. Proper theme development and plug-in use can offer substantial search engine optimization with little or no manual intervention. As...
