- Abandoned Shopping Carts
- Like many major cities, Los Angeles doesn't like it when shopping carts are discarded on its streets—and it's passed legislation forbidding it. Now, photographer Morgan Hager takes to the sidewalks, ravines, and fields of the City of Angels to document the outlaw carts in the wild. In the process, he does for the shopping cart what Sam Mendes did for the plastic bag in "American Beauty": He lends it a mournful dignity. Here, various carts nose up to garbage cans, linger under a tree, or park beneath a "No Parking" sign. Sometimes the metal wheeled bins lurk far off in the distance, as if too shy or wary to come closer. It's almost heartening to see some form of contact between the "modern-day pack mule" and another object, even if it is just a lone plastic bag. (They meet, at last!) -

- Picasa
- Picasa is software that helps you instantly find, edit and share all the pictures on your PC. Every time you open Picasa, it automatically locates all your pictures (even ones you forgot you had) and sorts them into visual albums organized by date with folder names you will recognize. You can drag and drop to arrange your albums and make labels to create new groups. Picasa makes sure your pictures are always organized. Picasa also makes advanced editing simple by putting one-click fixes and powerful effects at your fingertips. And Picasa makes it a snap to share your pictures – you can email, print photos home, make gift CDs, instantly share via Hello™, and even post pictures on your own blog.

- Picture History
- Okay, a picture's worth a thousand words, and this site contains, like, thousands of pictures. So that's the equivalent of, uh...a gazillion words? Well, you do the math, we'll do the perusing—of this collection of "the most important photographs of the last 150 years." Hyperbole, perhaps, but this is still one heck of a treasure trove of glimpses into the past. Just a small sampling: Lincoln at Antietam, Eisenhower on D-Day, Wild Bill Cody and the real Deadwood. The eclectic themes include African Americans, the Civil War, the Japanese internment, the Old West, trains, and U.S. presidents. So if nothing else, you'll finally understand what all the excitement was about Martin Van Buren. -
