Every day, Andrew Sullivan's blog, The Daily Dish, publishes a "View From Your Window." A reader takes a shot from where he's sitting, then sends it in. They come from all over the world.

Anyway, now he's making a book of these photos, an idea that could be great, or could go straight to the Barnes & Noble bargain bin. Which is a long way of saying, vote for the Fort Lauderdale one! It really is art(ish?).
