Annotation:







       There is one master block which contains a wireless communications system, while the other blocks merely indicate their orientation relative to one another. The master block continually updates a web page showing how the blocks are arranged.

       They already do it with math symbols -- why not URL symbols.   

       Perhaps have whole "words", such as "//", "http","www", "com","net","org","gov", etc., and "ca" for the Canadian set.   

       A good way to educate children about how the internet works.

       I was actually hoping it would be a website building tool for small children but I guess "Yahoo WebTemplates" already has that baked...

       I like what [jimfl] said, although it would be nice if they showed either their own position on a website, or, if you managed to place them in a valid URI configuration, it would browse to that page. (naturally you've got a kid safe filter installed if you want one).
