Bento Laptop Tablet Hybrid by René Woo-Ram Lee » Yanko Design

Bento Box Kinda Like Voltron Bento is quite an exceptional and forward thinking concept by René Woo-Ram Lee .

The Box accommodates all the gear to work as one whole unit or individually; as you see fit. http://www.yankodesign.com/2011/05/06/bento-box-kinda-like-voltron/

Throwable Panoramic Ball Camera has us seeing spherical potential - SlashGear

http://www.slashgear.com/throwable-panoramic-ball-camera-has-us-seeing-spherical-potential-13187881/ Each time there is a new way to capture media, especially when that means is inexpensive, the world goes nuts trying to see how they can show off their life and times with it. That’s what’s about to happen with this ball camera, the Throwable Panoramic Ball Camera, that is, a project that’s currently Patent Pending and has been in the works, apparently, since back in 2010. The project has progressed to the point here in late 2011 where the designers feel it strong enough to present to the public – just toss it up in the air and at it’s peak – SNAP – you’ve got a complete 360 degree view of the environment the ball is in. How’s that for a new way of seeing things? This is more than a panoramic view, it’s a whole new experience. Can you imagine bringing this ball with you everywhere you went?

The above map of the world, drawn by Facebook data structuring intern using connections between 10 million Facebook friends ( full-size link ), is interesting enough in itself until you realize that all of the country borders are entirely drawn using Facebook friend connections too. Even if the world was dark and totally unmapped, Facebook could produce a remarkably good approximation of most of its continents’ boundaries, and even the borders of some countries. It still took some clever math. Butler explains how he did it : http://www.geekosystem.com/facebook-connection-world-map/

When I graduated from eighth grade, my class got a pizza party. When the students at Belle Haven Middle School in Menlo Park, Calif. graduated, they got Mark Zuckerberg .

That means that under the right conditions, you might be able to see an ameoba proteus, a human egg, and a paramecium without using magnification. A magnifying glass can help you to see them more clearly, but they will still look tiny. http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/begin/cells/scale/

I personally should like to renounce speech altogether and, like organic Nature, communicate everything I have to say in sketches. That fig tree, this little snake, the cocoon on my window sill quietly awaiting its future – all these are momentous signatures.”
