1. Tom Coates at Plasticbag.org highlighted the new Flickr cards from MOO.com. I ordered the free set of 10 which you can get if you are Flickr Pro. I can’t wait to see the quality and $20 for a set of 100 doesn’t seem unreasonable if the quality is good. I think they are fun. The discussion here in the comments is funny to me since no one said the cards were meant to exude professionalism. They are fun and the application makes it easy to crop and zoom to get the look you want.
2. I use Rock, Paper, Scissors all the time with the kids to decide important matters such as who sits shotgun, what tv program we watch and even who gets the last bit of ice cream. Nice to know I’m in good company. Via Kottke
I just ordered my MOO cards today, as well, and I can’t wait!
Thanks for the link to moo.com. I ordered my 10 free today. It was too hard to choose. I think I might make calling cards if they look good.
We used rock, paper, scissors for everything in college. It was not uncommon to hear, “I’ll shoot ya for it.”
Rock is dead.
Long Live Paper and Scissors.
I got into a very heated argument as to whether that game you mention in point number 2 is called ‘Rock, Paper Scissors’ or ‘Paper, Rock Scissors’.
It was so long and drawn out, I honestly can’t remember who’s side you are proving correct right now. I’ll get back to you.
I ordered mine today! Thanks for the link!
