Put your Google Goggles on

Posted on July 5, 2008

Today I saw this absolutely wonderful little google images trick that I discovered via this Dark Roasted Blend post.

Basically you cut out the images from a google image search and look at your surroundings through the holes. The original has some wonderful images of the card being held up in Stockholm.

original google goggles in action.

While this is fantastic it only works in Stockholm due to the hard copy. I wanted a copy that worked with any search I could think of. So I created my own version.

Introducing The Google Goggles which amazingly allow you to see the world through a google image search no matter how far you are from the comfort of your computer just as long as you remembered to print out a search for your surrounding before you left the house. :)

Enter a short search term into the box below to get your custom Google Goggles :)

Do not link to the script on this SAVE THE IMAGE. Thanks.

Dedicated to my daughter Isabelle Rose, RIP
