Welcome to Fantom Island, where iLL-Literacy's legend finds its habitat. If you've happened upon this portal, may we be as bold as to assert that nested in you is a healthy curiosity. Whether you were drawn here by the Slanted i at this page's 1-o-clock, the quick flash of during loading, or simply because you have a click-happy finger – you've arrived. HihowRUhi?
The peculiar thing about Fantom Island is that it is but a mirage – an Imaginary oasis isolated in the confines of our brainwaves. We shall gradually reveal morsels of our folklore here, so please visit often. To return, simply bring your Imagination as your passport.

As I sit here in my Brooklyn basement, getting ready to catapult myself across the country in a flight where I’ll have wireless internet, I am thoroughly amazed by how far we’ve come as humans. Forever a skeptic, every time any new technology surfaces, I approach it with a bittersweet fascination in the marvel of what our minds can create, and intense fear for the destruction that we could bring upon ourselves. But every once in awhile, I’ll find a pocket of air from my paranoia, and actually be able to wholeheartedly geek out. With my affinity for the digital world, I would imagine being HELLA frustrated had I existed in the feudal ages.
So sit back, enjoy this video about the new search engine that can find information from a photograph, and try not to think about the fact that we’re becoming a world of spies for Big Brother Googletron.
