“bewildrr” Was The Backup Name

Sorry this is late; things are getting a bit busy at work.
befuddlr could probably be built off of just about any image hosting site, but they chose Flickr and, in solidarity, dropped the penultimate letter of their name, so it pretty much counts as a Yahoo!-related cool thing. All that the site does is take Flickr images, break them into a grids, shuffle the tiles, and let users try to put the images back together again -- but the idea is executed brilliantly and it's an addictive way to pass the time and explore new photos. The site also features a bookmarklet that allows you to take any Flickr image that you're viewing and "befuddle it!"
Some images, of course, come pre-befuddled.
