Glogster, it seems, is a new web service where people can create posters and share them.

Some people will undoubtedly have a natural talent for this.

Other will create such curios as this offering from "ngonzalez":

Yes, I am very curious to know about Ray's weeding...

I'm curious what he never obtained to get. And does he miss not having it?

I could stalk out the house and wait for the gardener. Perhaps some juicy tidbits there to be found! We might even discover a hoe in the shed!

And another thing: I don't need to know where was he originaly born, I want to know where he was born later! And, of course, I think we'd all like to know how many awards di he got!

I can't wait to see who is featured in the second issue of Speciality of Authors. A snip at $7.99.

I wonder if the Glogger(?) randomly selected the roller skates (along with the tiny rabbits, heart shapes etc), or whether she knew that Ray rollerskated as a teenager.

And then there is this delight, all about Ray's classic story "A Sound of THUDER" [sic]:

http://mullinslogan.glogster.com/mullisnlogan/

(When this one loads, you have to click on it to reveal the poster with its glorious typo.)



More effective typos would include:

DANDELION WIN - story of our forum moderator's lottery success

P IS FOR ROCKET

BARK CARNIVAL - about a circus of dogs

THE ILLUSTRATED VAN - about a well decorated small truck

This one almost works...except for the cute T Rex bottom left:

http://layonmacduff.glogster.c...d-of-Thunder-Rachel/

It's Dr Who what done it in this version of the tale:

And one with sound effects:

No, I compleatly get that! That's what the title was after he got back from the safari.

Snip is a good word.

Glogger is a good word.

Sic is a good word.

Good grief is a good word.

There, my work is done.

Your work isn't done until you put all of your thoughts into a carefully designed Glog of your own. I suggest you use second period for that. Big Grin
