The "G" Modules
The G Modules are full of cool things to spice up your lenses. Did you know you can display blog posts from Google on your lenses? Or show GapingVoid cartoons?
Doing a local lens? Show everyone where it's at with the Google Map module. And, of course, a module every lens should have, the Guestbook module.
So look around and see how they would look when you use them on your lens. Add a little variety. Those with borders around them and larger font size allow html code in the descriptions. Those that don't allow it are noted.
Have fun.
The Gapingvoid Module
Display the latest on Gapingvoid here.
From what I can see on this web site, Gapingvoid is a blog by Hugh MacLeod. His bio pages states "Hugh MacLeod is a cartoonist, who makes his living publishing fine art prints via the internet. His book, "Ignore Everybody" comes out June, 2009. Also known for his ideas about how "Web 2.0" affects advertising and marketing, after a decade of working as an advertising copywriter, Hugh started blogging at gapingvoid.com in 2001. He first started off just publishing his cartoons, but as time wore on he started blogging about his other main interest i.e. marketing.
In 2004 he wrote "Ignore Everybody" and "The Hughtrain", which both got widely read in the blogosphere, downloaded over million times in total.
