In which technology enhances my dorkitude

I'm preparing for the Maryland Sheep & Wool festival; last year was my first year attending and I just sort of winged it.

This year, I've added web clips of the fairgounds map, vendor list, and event schedule to my iPhone.

I took it a bit further and scanned a laminated yarn requirements guide I have, cropped & saved each topic (sweaters, vests, hats, socks, etc.) into separate PNG files, saved the images to both my website & my iPhone's photo library, created an iPhone-friendly HTML page with links to the different images, and created an iPhone-friendly icon for the page so I could save it as a pretty web clip.

That's pretty dorky, even if I am quite pleased with myself.

Y'know, you're right--that *is* pretty dorky. But it's also an awesome idea that I might have to co-opt for my iPod. (I mean, I've already used it for lace charts....)
