That's kinda cool. Best one I had was nzherald.co.nz. If you put in organichtml.com there are no leaves. Oh, and metachat.org looks like some kind of fungus.

Most of the urls I tried didn't generate very interesting images, and all were black and white (though one had a butterfly flitting around), then I tried google news and got a pretty nice big color thingy (CNN didn't come out so interesting, though). So now I'm intrigued, and trying to find urls that make nice plants.

Blort (http://blort.meepzorp.com) is nice, and worth100 (http://www.worth1000.com) is pretty cool.

Branches indicate links. All my pages look like bamboo trees, as they mostly have only "next page" and "previous page" links.

metafilter looks really strange by the way. Like a black weed.

As it should be ;-)

My blog url looks like a dead plant and my photoblog looks like ikebana. Why does blort deserve a bee? Why?! And flickr gets pink! It ain't fair.
