Pixelize, create an image consisting of many small images 

,----[ Quote ]
| Pixelize is a program that will use many 
| scaled down images to try to duplicate, as 
| closely as possible, another image.
| 
| Pixelize works by splitting up the image you 
| want rendered (or duplicated) into a grid of 
| small rectangular areas. Each area is 
| analyzed, and replaced with an image chosen 
| from a large database of images. Pixelize 
| tries to pick images that best match each 
| area.

Drupal thrives in Taiwan

,----[ Quote ]
| After a while I discovered that there was even
| a Drupal Taiwan website. So I got in touch
| with the site admin and head organizer,
| Charles Chuang, and he let me know there would
| be a meetup in late December. The gathering
| would be at a local cafe in central Taipei and
| the topic would be new features, discuss
| strategy, and socialize to make new friends
| with like-minded souls.

Should the White House Contribute to the Open Source Community?

,----[ Quote ]
| While this measure may not be an immediate
| cost-saver (5 different companies are
| involved in re-building and maintaining the
| White House web site), long-term costs
| should fall as government agencies are able
| to borrow from the greater Drupal community
| while incrementally improving on the
| websites code. But the question remains,
| will the Obama White House share some of the
| contributions itâs making to open source?
