curiosity is a very dangerous thing...

I ran across this site while cruising google, and it just fascinated me. Problem? It's in Dutch, I think? Anyone out there read Dutch? Or whatever language it is? Because I really want to know what these things are. ^__^

...and when did LJ do this reformatting thing...? Should I be afraid...? O.O

I am pretty positive that's Dutch, but then again I don't speak it, so.
But here in Germany I recently ran across a drinks menu that folds up exactly like that.
In Dutch 'trouw' means 'marry' and 'kaarten' is cards; I would hazard a guess and say that this particular site sells spiffy folding greeting cards?

Thanks! They do seem to be a printer of custom... uh... paper stuff. ^_^ It's not the events associated that hooked me; it's the way the things flip and fold... It reminds me of a toy I had when I was small; it flip-flopped in a weird way. I think it might have been called a Jacob's Ladder...?

I tried googling 'turning cards' but that was the only thing that came up. Maybe it goes by a different name in different places... Hm.... ^.o

BTW, I love your icon. ^__^ But it needs a line to the effect of "and infects them with its own loan-words. There is no cure." English: The Kudzu of the Spoken Word.
