Everything about this is brilliant.

An Alternative Interpretation

Are intellectual pursuits sexy? I contend the answer is ‘yes,’ and my super-strong argument is “because John Lennon sang so.”

In the song “A Day in the Life,” the phrase “I’d love to turn you on” is first preceded by a reference to reading ["having read the book"] and then by a witticism [that whole Albert Hall thing]. The juxtaposition is good enough for me!

People are making pretty themes!

Before I launch the gallery feature (which I want to get right the first time, given that many people have made default-identical themes just to test out the app), I’m the only person who’s had an easy look at all the themes people have been making. It’s quite exciting! For instance:

A Finnish Theme

From a recent Finnish visitor. Keep up the good work, everyone!

More Theme-y Stuff

You might ask — which theme does the creator of the [currently] largest iGoogle theme creation tool use for his homepage?

The Answer, my friend, is this one.

iGoogle Theme Maker!

THIS IS A USEFUL APP -

It lets you create and host an iGoogle theme, which you can then use immediately (or, y’know, attempt submit to the Google Theme Directory). I made it. It’s awesome. Let me know if you run into any problems with it. Thanks.
