#513- it is a collection of ~ 2700 temples across India, with images sourced from wikipedia
- it shows you a random temple each time you visit

So this is just the tip of the iceberg. I am trying to build a catalogue of all temples, starting with India, and expanding on to the rest of the world. The focus is on temples originating from Indic religions like Hinduism, Jainism and Buddhism.

#520So, I built a tool to answer that. Major goals have been to keep low energy/cpu usage (so I can run it 24/7), have it adapt to the apps/traffic I'm using (rather than use static monitoring endpoints), and to deliver both at-a-glance answers in the menubar and in-depth detail in the dropdown.
It's called Breakdown. It's a free (for typical uses). It's Mac-only for now (but if enough people ask for Windows I'll port it).
