You highlight a word, click on the bookmarklet and it will replace the word with a random photo tagged with that word. It basically turns your text into a rebus. The problem is that since the photo is randomly chosen from words with that tag, if you used it on the word "Gray" you could get something with the color gray or a picture from the civil war. Great idea though, and it would be interesting to see the Sandburg poem with the actual photos substituted in instead of words with hyperlinks. It would make for a very interesting lesson in interpertation.
