Yearbook Yourself - absolutely brilliant. See what your yearbook photo would have looked like in 1952, 1968, .... [via kottke]

Here's Flip Kromer, proud member of the class of 1970, at the Shoppes at Willow Bend:

Note that you can shift and line up your photo while browsing -- click the little "+" in the lower right corner. I don't know what changing the mall selection does, but I do know there's neither Twin Pines nor Lone Pines Mall, and that that's a missed opportunity.

A few things:

My yearbook pictures looked a lot like the 1996 photo, so apparently I was 2 years behind in fashion. No surprises there.

The 1976 photo looks remarkably like Phil's hair does now (he's been avoiding Bird's lately).

They also don't list the Eden Prairie Center on the list of malls. Another missed opportunity.

I love that our world is large enough, apparently, as to include Mall Historians.
