Today's Link Latte is a cool optical illusion. Here is the link:

What's so cool is that how you see the "illusion" indicates which side of your brain you prefer to use. I prefer my right side. I thought maybe I would be able to see it both ways. What's even cooler is that when I turned my head upside down, I was able to see the image the left-brain way. It has to do with which direction you see the image turning.

So I wonder what that means?

Oh man, I totally see it going counter-clockwise.  Which is kinda weird, actually, since according to the test they link I'm 51% right brain and 50% left brain.

I saw the twirling dancer spin both clockwise and c/clockwise, so I went through several of the other illusions and took the survey. I really enjoyed this one!

Right-brained:  53%  Left-brained:  47%

Yes, this was a cool link. My totally left-brained, analytical husband (or so I thought) saw the dancer spinning clockwise (right brain). I was surprised. When he looked at it upside down he saw it going counter-clockwise. Very fun!

Heather

Wow!  Definitely clockwise, no matter what I do.

Took the test:

Right brain:  76%

Left brain:  24%

That's not a surprise.
