- I used to enjoy bringing up random web pages through Stumbleupon, but I got a bit tired of all the pictures of sunsets, lists (10 Strange Houses, 15 Stupid Criminals, etc etc) that you had to wade through before getting something more interesting and substantive.
Now I usually use the del.icio.us randomizer button to get a random site that has been bookmarked. I did a slight tweak to the URL, changing it from http://del.icio.us/recent?random&min=10 to ...min=1, so that I would not be just getting the more popular bookmarks.
Does anyone know how I could change the URL so that I could use the whole del.icio.us database instead of just the recent bookmarks?

Random numbers, flickr photos

...the number 17 was picked much more often -- almost 18 percent of the time, compared to the 5 percent you might expect from this sample.
and interestingly, prime numbers are also picked disproportionately often. - I've just uploaded a few more snapshots of the 1988 Cape Town Castle excavations to flickr:
and a previous uploaded snapshot from the restaurant at Tsitsikamma National Park:
