Google Blogger has unveiled a hypnotically fascinating little toy, Blogger Play. All it does is flash up the photographs that people are uploading to their Blogger blogs right now. It sounded “so what?” when I read it announced on Blogger Buzz (”Blogger Play: Watch the blogs go by”), but three minutes with it and I was hooked.

Babies. Flowers. Couples kissing. Cruise ships. A half-eaten hamburger. Soccer players. Rock bands. A cat in a goldfish bowl. A cathedral. Vacation pictures–lots of vacation pictures. More kissing couples. Anime art. A gravestone. Someone blowing out birthday candles. A perfume bottle. A tree. Another tree. Buddies with arms around one another walking through some European plaza. Parrots, houses, train stations, oceans. I even saw a screen shot of a foreign currency trading chart flash by.

Watch it.
