Friday Round Up

I found this totally by accident the other day. Frappr. Frappr is a site of Google social networking maps. This is just the coolest thing. Look at the map of Quakers. The site has a search feature. I had a blast just browsing through some of the different groups. Get ready to spend some time there.

The Freesound Project is a collaborative Creative Commons database of sounds. In my searches I found ambient street sounds, a cat purring and children playing.

Sacred Destinations Travel Guide is a free travel guide to sacred sites around the world. You can either search by sacred sites by country or sacred sites by category. I just spent way too much time perusing the cathedral section.

Malcolm Gladwell, the amazing author of the book The Tipping Point has a blog. I haven't read his latest Blink, but it's on my list.

"If there is anything that we wish to change in the child, we should first examine it and see whether it is not something that could better be changed in ourselves." - Carl Jung

Rockin Jung quote. Although I do not consider myself Jungian, the man did come up with some rather interesting stuff!

Excellent choice. Very true.
