Castlepalooza

Okay guys, this is a nothing post, but I wanted to give this its own post so you didn't miss it. If you have Quicktime, you're in for a treat. If you don't, download it for pity's sake. This is pretty nifty.

You're looking for the Quicktime VR tour. Most of these views are just 360 panoramic ('just?') but on some of them you can look all the way up to the sky and all the way down to the ground. It's like you are actually there, except even better because your pesky feet don't get in the way of your view of the ground. Levitating eyeballs are us. These views are just for Osaka-jou, too. Check out the "Castle Select" feature at the top right. Woot. All the Japanese castle you've ever wanted and then some.
