News You Can Bruise for 2006 March 1

I had the idea to write something that used the Flickr API to turn a sentence into a rebus. For every word it would do a tag search on that word, and use the appropriate thumbnail picture. Well, I'm not that interested in doing it now because there's a similar thing called flickrfling which takes an RSS feed and rebusizes the first part of it. It's a Flash application and I don't know why it takes an RSS feed (instead of, say, a string) except to get another buzzword in there, but it's satisfying enough to stave off my desire to do my own for a while.
