There are seven touristic icons in this photomontage. Can you identify them all? There are two bonus pics in the background, can you name them as well? Paris Hilton not included.
I was checking this new application called Google Docs - you all are already registered since you registered as authors for this blog, i think.
It is a cloud computing kind of thingy, so you can access a file that you have uploaded from any internet connection, not just from your computer....
you can store up to 1 gigabyte free
in any case, if you ever wanted to share a file online you can simply upload it to your googledocs - you need to "share" it in googledocs to allow others to see it...and, if you wanted to share it in a comment, just include the url...
...i don't know if i am always so grim, perhaps so...
i would like to think it is was because i was trying to concentrate on taking a picture of myself, while trying to frame a structure in the background and clicking the screen to snap the picture without jiggling the iphone...
...also, those close-ups sure show warts, wrinkles and all...errrrr years of character building
How many hints? :-) There's the da Vinci Code. And the other one was in my first comment: "the mother of all Aristide Cavaille-Coll organs!", the only (official) World Cultural Heritage monument featured in your photo montage. You got a chance to hear it? If so: Not fair!

Somebody test this and let us know if it is really "shared" - not 100% sure, since i am the owner anyway...
Where's Walter
Ok I recognize all but #3; what is that? The main touristic icon I see in the pictures is a grim American tourist.
