I’ve seen this animation trick done a few times, and it gets me everytime. I think it’s really cool, but I still can’t figure out how you would do some of these tricks (like the rail slide) with stop motion.

If anybody out there has any idea how they do it, or better yet can link to a "making of" movie or article, I would really appreciate it.

Here at work, we’ve added a new feature to the service, the Exportable Timeline Widget! You can export your timeline as a Flash widget, which you can then place on other websites and show off your stories. One of the cool features about it, is that it’s dynamic in the way that if you were to add new stories on OurStory, those new stories would show up on your timeline widget that may live on your MySpace page.

Here’s an example, showing stories from my life:

Start your own timeline at OurStory.com

And here’s one for my cat, Orbit:

Here’s a little widget you can use to consolidate most your social netowrking/web 2.0 links into one place. I’m not really sure if this was designed to show off your stuff, or just make life easier for stalkers

Here’s mine:

PS - I had to edit it to manually add the OurStory link

I’m not usually into just reposting items I find on Digg, but this is pretty cool.
