What I share with you today isn’t strictly an optical illusion, but still an interesting coincidence that happened to one of our friends – Benjamin Bowmer. I thought it was worth sharing. As you all know by now, some of our great assets include “Optical Illusion of The Day” widgets. People download these free little applications, put them on their computer desktops, Facebook or MySpace profiles, iPhone etc… and then each day get new optical illusions from us. If you missed it, be sure to download one for yourself. Anyway, as Ben stated in his email (quotes included beneath the screenshot) he had iGoogle gadget for years now, but one day when he opened his Google Homepage he was in for a surprise. If you remember, back in September we posted Summer Stockings illusion, and this is the one Ben saw, except there was a little more to it then others of us had access to…
Good day mate, I’ve had your iGoogle gadget on my home page for a couple of years now, but never have I gotten such a nice surprise when I opened the internet. Nothing heaps fancy, but still a nice coincidence I think, and I figured you’d appreciate it. Keep up the good work. – Ben
