Oh, man! I am headed for the beach at the end of September.
Can't wait - I think I shall just wait here for the weeks to pass ;)

Very cute.
Would be kind of fun if it was more LOGO-like: repeated lefts should make you go in a circle rather than down the page.
cheers

Hi there,
Lovely picture, I wish we had a beach near me where I could find sand like that! Is that a real photo or something else. Did you travel to warm climes for that kind of shot?
Thanks,
Frank

Can we use this as a voting system for federal election?

The Man in Blue commented on 11 August 2007 @ 16:56
Sure, I'll let the federal Government licence it for a princely sum.

Just goes to show that, without other overriding concerns, the general trend for people is to hit the first link in reading order.
That's quite a way that this has gone left.

710... those are a lot of steps, you're trying to let us do the steps so you can dig up the treasure?
I must say the outcome isn't what I expected, as the biggest part of people will use that one hand at that one side... Side names deleted so people will make a honest pick for your treasure digging.

Very nice, indeed. Although, we are now leaning on the left ;-)

a few steps to the right... no water, no woman, no cocktails, no... seems to be very sandy :-)

Gio commented on 16 August 2007 @ 06:50
What will happen, if you choose left, but right step is correct?

I am walking and walking and walking, but can't get to the sea...
It's a really long beach :-)
Thanks for bringing a smile on my face today !

I think, you really need to start wearing more flip flops on the sandy ground ;-)
btw: really nice idea!

I choose right. Right is always "right".

Flabby Boy commented on 20 August 2007 @ 13:22
Not to get all political or anything (ok, yes I am!), but things seem to be generally drifting toward the left. A few more people like me are needed to balance things out. :)

nice gimmick, but whats the goal? To count the right and left decisions seems to be a little to simple...or?
Maybe its time to look for my bikini ;-)

Mark Vitullo commented on 22 August 2007 @ 22:41
Very clever, Jeff. The simplicity is elegant. Even so, I think it evokes a lot of thought. It will be intersting to see how this grows.

I took the right thinking right is always right and had to scroll horizontally on the right for say a kilometre:P and apparently it seemed if i was not going right since the footprints were taking me up and down in a haphazard manner.
P.S: Right is not always right, right?:P
