Project Alphabet - a Fotolog

This is the letter "I" - in brick - as found by someone named Eliahu. I found it on a site called "Project Alphabet." Apparently, Project Alphabet is a collaboration between a group of people we shall call "fotologgers," for reasons which will soon become apparent to those who read on...

Project Alphabet is a "log of found letters." Camera-ready participants look at the world through the lens of the alphabet, snapping up anything they looks clearly letter-like. The result is a wonderfully playful collection of images, and a public invitation to join in the fun.

Project Alphabet is one of thousands of Fotologs, hosted, for free, by Fotolog. There are a lot of remarkable things about this whole project, not the least of which is that it's free, and public. Another remarkable thing is that all the Fotologs hosted by Fotolog are safe for children. I quote:

"The most important rule is to respect your fellow Fotologgers (and everyone else for that matter). Don't post obscene, hateful or mean photos. Don't say nasty things in photo captions or guestbooks. Don't post other people's photos without their permission. And, as we said, we want our families to enjoy this site. That doesn't mean you can only post pictures of babies and puppies. We encourage you to post some interesting, intriguing, artistic edgy stuff. But, if you post photos that contain things like nudity, explicit sexual content, bondage, self mutilation, obscene gestures, gory injuries, etc., we're going to make you take them back down."

It is a remarkable service, free and freeing, inviting and intriguing, safe and, most important, all in the spirit of fun.
