today in brief Tweet

1. Enjoy Cameron Gray's Tree of Singularity. Discovered because he started following me on Twitter.

2. Now isn't that the same technique employed in designing James Blunt's new album cover? You know, that guy driving us mad with his You're Beautiful track.

3. While still talking photos, check Blogger Play, a real-time slideshow of photos Blogger users have recently uploaded to their blogs. It's a great snapshot of what people are thinking and posting about, right now!

4. A new way of making calls directly between phones, for free, is being trialled by a Swedish company. TerraNet has some USD 3 million from Ericsson, and uses peer-to-peer to provide voice communication in large areas with poor connectivity, like China. How will the rest of the world not access it? If you're not familiar with P2P telephony, think of a mobile Skype.

5. Speaking of P2P, my love proposes using mesh wireless networks to make P2P media a reality. Mesh networks are a P2P solution tested currently in labs, in London, and in the U.S. by Google. In developed countries it may provide for higher quality and/ or faster delivery of media content, my love believes. Meanwhile, Gareth has similar views but a different take on the right technology to get started. That's what comes out when two friends meet. Seed for a revolution.

6. If YouTube comments met real life, a fun video recommended by Scoble.

7. Maddison Gabriel is a fashion model who was chosen to head Fashion Week Australia 2007. Controversy surrounded this decision due to the fact that the model was 12. Read more on Gleamd, via Martin Menu, and see her a bit better here.

8. Martin also unearthed this so-far-unknown-to-me-offer: make your own Twitter shirt.

9. Have you heard of sphering/ sphereing/ zorbing? I'm more tempted to try this extreme sport than bungee because it's only done with another person and accounts mention a lot of laughing.

10. Ending with another tree, from Flickr: A Solitary Tree that cannot be blogged.
