The New York-based institution is no light-weight in the area of arts education. They've now extended that mission extensively by making dozens of high-quality publications on artists available to anyone with an Internet connection. The books, art catalogues for major exhibitions at the museum, pop out into a clean, fast virtual book reader.
Open Culture points out that the books are also available for download in a number of e-book formats, including ePub and PDF, at Archive.org's Guggenheim page.

Given the number of cities that have adopted this mapping approach for their own subway systems, clearly this is a popular opinion. At a conference some years back, I saw a poster for the Yahoo!

It's easy to forget that when Apple's first iPad was unveiled in January 2010, there were plenty of cynics questioning the need for a slate-shaped device sitting somewhere between a smartphone and a laptop computer. Microsoft had pitched tablets a decade before, to little interest. So what were iPads for? Scroll on 21 months and a second-generation model later, and we have a better idea: iPads are for lounging on the sofa, browsing, emailing, tweeting and Facebooking, for sure.
But they're also for playing games, reading books, discovering music, watching films and TV shows, following recipes, video-chatting with friends and much more. And if iPad has found its multiple roles, the burgeoning number of apps available for the device is a key reason. There are currently more than 100,000 native iPad apps available, although, as with the iPhone, a big chunk of those are filler. Two devices loomed large when choosing the 50 apps for this feature: the iPhone and the laptop. AUTO TRADER free. HTML5 Etch-A-Sketch. Research and Development: Create your own BBC QRCode.

First, a little background: We’re three undergrad industrial design students at the University of Cincinnati who teamed up for an experiment in education. We set out to partner with our university, a high school, and several footwear companies to create a curriculum that would engage and empower inner-city youth through footwear design. We titled the experiment the Tread Project. The pitch was simple: Tread wanted to create an engaging curriculum that would channel these urban students’ passion for (and sometimes obsession with) footwear into their high school education. The result was a program aimed at giving these kids an intro to design thinking, creative problem solving, and the footwear-design process in seven weeks. Once the Tread Project idea was born, we pitched it to several global footwear brands.
[The students took part in a build-your-own-shoe exercise with masking tape. What’s the Point? How to Start Your Own Revolution1.) 2.) 3.) 4.) 5.) 6.) 7.) Where Do We Go from Here?

Klencke Atlas (1660) is one of the world's largest atlases.[1] It is 1.75 metres tall (about 5 ft, 9in) by 1.9 metres wide when open (about 6 ft, 3in),[2] and so heavy the British Library reportedly had six people to carry it.[1] It is a world atlas, made up of 37 maps on 39 sheets.[3] The maps were intended to be removed and displayed on the wall.[1] The maps are of the continents and assorted European states[3] and it was said to encompass all the geographical knowledge of the time.[4] Dutch Prince John Maurice of Nassau is credited with its creation,[4] and it contains engravings by artists Blaeu and Hondius and others.[3] It was presented by a consortium of Dutch merchants, led by Professor Johannes Klencke,[5][6] to King Charles II of England in 1660 to mark the occasion of his restoration to the throne.[1] Johannes Klencke was the son of a Dutch merchant family.

XKCD-Inspired Cartoon Maps the World's Social Networks [PIC] This cartoon map shows the relative sizes of social networks based on real 2010 user data, and does so in a quirky and amusing way.The quirky and amusing aspect is hardly surprising, because this map — titled the "2010 Social Networking Map" — was inspired by geeky-yet-popular web comic XKCD's once sort-of-viral "Map of Online Communities.
" The original was made based on the whims of XKCD's author, but marketing firm Flowtown took the idea and ran with it for this 2010 variation, sizing the various regions (each named after a social network) based on info collected or published by USA Today, Alexa, Compete and other sources. The firm also provides commentary on trends with its humorous names — for example, the "Former Kingdom of MySpace," the "Receding Glaciers of AOL and Windows Live," the "Rising Island of Google Buzz" and the "Land of Defunct Social Networks.
