My friend Eli just launched "Fortune Cookie Surveyor". (Surveyor?) It's exactly what you think it is:
Most of the time when you open one of those cookies, you get something other than a fortune, a prediction of something that will happen in your future. Instead, you most often get either praise, advice, an aphorism, or even advertising or an insult. Take a minute to answer the survey. We'd like to know how many you got that were actually fortunes (if any). There's also a few other questions which you don't have to answer but the answers to which I and a few other people will find interesting.
I get deja vu with nearly every fortune cookie I open. I used to keep all of the fortunes I got in an envelope, and as the ink faded I imagined the fortunes were coming true. I wonder they will lose some of the magic as they cross into elirosenblatt.org:80.
Suggestions for future enhancements:
- Geotracking Cookies over time
- Marking the Fortune Cookie Manufacturer
- Flickr-like tagging of fortunes, so watchwords can be cross referenced with Flickr/Delicious/Technorati by watchword (Anil has suggested a similar web service.)
I really enjoyed your browsing around your site. Great photos (love the collage effect) and lots of interesting links!
Thanks,
Gienna
