Too sick to do any school work or even read, but you&#8217;ve slept for 14 hours and need to be awake for a while.  You turn to TV and are amazed to find that despite have 70 channels, there&#8217;s nothing to watch.<\/p>\n<p>Your salvation has arrived from an unlikely source&#8230; Blogger.  They have released a feature they&#8217;ve had in-house for years.  Go to<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/play.blogger.com\/\">http:\/\/play.blogger.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>and you can watch the photos being uploaded to Blogger blogs.<\/p>\n<p>Now, you may be thinking this sounds like torture, a play on the old, &#8220;Come over and watch our travel slideshow.&#8221;  However, you&#8217;d be wrong.  What you see is an amazingly diverse stream of photos.

Of course, I have iTunes streaming Radio Margaritaville through our AirTunes.<\/p>\n<p>I wonder if you uploaded a photo to your Blog and had this sit in a different tag, if you&#8217;d see your own photo go by, or if it is just grabbing one as the previous one finishes showing.  If you figure that out, let me know.<\/p>\n<p>So, the next time you are home sick, or needing a break, a visual meditation, give it a try.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Think of the times you&#8217;ve been home sick.
