Interweave Knits' WebWatch

Mea culpa.

See, this is the blogging phenomenon [quite a popular one, actually!] called being a bad blogger. I haven't updated here since April.

I suck!

Sorry, folks. If you've been coming here, looking for content, I have let you down. I'll do better.

Okay, better! First, the new IK is out and it's time to talk tech.

You want to map your route? Try Google Maps.

You want to translate the lederhosen pattern you've found on the web that's only in German? Try Google's language tools. Also good for Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean and Chinese. The language tools come in really handy when you're browsing Yahoo Japan [my favorite source for Blythe stuff I can't afford but still like looking at]. Just plug in the URL, and as you click through the site, each page is translated quite badly into some sort of English-related language. It's machine translation and it's free...so no complaining. Besides, it's usually enough so you can get the basic idea of what's being said. And the badly translated phrases are fun. Lee mosquito! [That's my favorite, and I have no idea what it's supposed to mean. I think it refers to something small, though.]

You want to find the best price on the black leather Gizeh Birkenstocks you've been craving? Try Froogle. Yes, also from the people at Google. We love Google. Google bought Blogger, by the way -- which is the utility we use to make this blog. We really love Google. They're cool.

Okay, enough Google. [I can never get enough Google, but that's enough for now.]

More to come!
