Visit http://www.earthmosaic.org/ for a potentially cool project taking place today in celebration of Earth Day. Basically the effort is an open call for photos from around the world, the stipulation being that they must be taken on earth day and (presumably) must depict some aspect of the Earth (as opposed to your really cute kid).
Once the photos are uploaded, they are going to compile them all together on some sort of a big digital map, which might make for a pretty cool compilation of stuff, hopefully from around the world.
If you have some time before midnight tonight, snap a quick shot and upload it using their big green “upload” button. If you don’t do that, at the very least check back later to see what they come up with. It’s bound to have some interesting results and might end up saying a lot about the potential use of technology to create big, cool, collaborative projects.
If anybody participated, let us know in the comments section. Happy Earth Day!
