A Picture is worth a thousand 101100
Patrick Roos is a 24-year old Swede, a student of Japanese and Physics. He has a (discontinued) blog, on which he spouts practical advice like:
“Too much Prozac® makes you weird. Use it moderately.” (9/7/02)In early 2002, he created Text-Image [Link], a free web-based service that converts any image into HTML or ASCII. I played around with it for a while and got the results you see above.
“Pulling tampoons (sic) out of strange girls is fun!” (9/18/02)
So, if you want to impress your girlfriend with cool pictures of herself or bore your relatives with cool pictures of your child or astound the world with cool pictures of random stuff, go forth and binary-multiply!
