It&#8217;s a Flash-based quiz called &#8220;The Senses Challenge&#8221; and I hope you do better on it than I did. People have been telling me for years that I have no sense, and this quiz seems to confirm that judgment.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-top: 1.25em;\">A blogger from just down the street in the Gazette Neighborhood, <a title=\"Write Lightning\" href=\"http:\/\/www.writelightning.com\/\">Deb Thompson,<\/a> sends a link to <a href=\"http:\/\/gliffy.com\/\">Gliffy.com<\/a>, a service that allows you to create flowcharts, floorplans, and other simple diagrams online, and save and share them via the web. It&#8217;s in beta form at this point but it&#8217;s an interesting concept. Be forewarned, however; it doesn&#8217;t play well with versions of Firefox earlier than 1.5, as it gave me the following warning as soon as it sniffed my browser. I assume that one of the perfromance (sic) issues is loss of spelling ability.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ericsiegmund.com\/images\/fireant\/screenshots\/gliffy.gif\" alt=\"Screenshot of warning message\"><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"smaller\">Technorati tag: <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/gliffy\" rel=\"tag\">Gliffy<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Coupla interesting links from a coupla interesting folks&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21,72,33],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3851","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-internet","category-kitchen-sink","category-science","entry"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ericsiegmund.com\/fireant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3851","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ericsiegmund.com\/fireant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ericsiegmund.com\/fireant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ericsiegmund.com\/fireant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ericsiegmund.com\/fireant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3851"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ericsiegmund.com\/fireant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3851\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8720,"href":"https:\/\/ericsiegmund.com\/fireant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3851\/revisions\/8720"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ericsiegmund.com\/fireant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3851"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ericsiegmund.com\/fireant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3851"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ericsiegmund.com\/fireant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3851"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
