I saw "roundy corners" on all of the Wheel of Fortune gameshow's graphics last night - the shark has been jumped.
"roundy corners" in GUI = semantic data

As the creator of both sites I always try to stop in and say thanks when I see a new site referring visitors, so thanks.
Keep an eye on the sites too, I'll be doing more spiffy things soon.
