Visual Poetry. VisualPoetry translates any text into a series of images by looking up the words on Google image search and projecting the most relevant results as a slide show. [Via blog.org.]

  • That's the strangest use for Goodgle I've ever seen. I had a few problems with closing the program, but nothing huge. Also, I'm not sure I like the fact that the images are auto-saved to my hard drive.
  • 'Bout that closing the program issue: it seems that the program wants to cycle through all the images/terms before auto-closing. And, I meant to spell Google like that. Yeah.
  • I just entered, "How do I love thee? Let me count the ways," and got The Count from Sesame Street. It gives the sonnet a whole new meaning.
  • Not what I had envisioned by the term 'visual poetry' but interesting nonetheless.
  • Another strange use for Google Images would be the GoogleHouse
  • Thanks for the GoogleHouse link, genial. I could stare at that for minutes. ...Which is a long time for a member of the MTV generation. Really.
  • Weird. Wacky. Fun.
