LEGO, Meet iPhone: ‘Life of George’ Uses iOS to Judge Building Skills - Techland - TIME.com
It’s called LEGO “Life of George,” and while it may not sound like it has anything to do with Apple’s iPhone or iPod Touch, it just so happens the two technologies—yes, LEGO technically counts as “technology”—are joined at the hip. Imagine technology that could tell you if you’ve built something to spec, say a flag, or a car, or a person, LEGO style. Or don’t imagine and just give LEGO’s Life of George a go, though you’ll need an iOS device to complete the package. ( MORE: Giveaway: Lego Universe Lets Players Build Big ) LEGO’s tallish, rectangular box for the game (yep, it’s a game—more on that in a moment) packs in 144 LEGO bricks and something called a Playmat. You know how “green screen” technology works in movies, where actors work against a green-hued backdrop to allow video editors to eventually drop computer-generated imagery in behind or around them?

The problem with food ads is that you can only see the product, but you can’t smell or taste it. Until now, that is. In Germany, a billboard for the GranataPet brand dog food lets consumers (or actually, their dogs) get a sample by checking in via Foursquare . As this video shows, once you check in, dog food comes out of a dispenser at dog level.

Over the last month it's been exciting to watch Instagram grow within Made By Many. Tim's post Quora is from Mars, Instagram is from Venus talks about the "simple pre-verbal delight of sharing something beautiful by showing it to other people" and that's the heart of the attraction. Instagram is incredibly casual, it doesn't demand you share your location, and the community is clearly encouraged to "like" other photos, rather than submitting comments, or rating pictures. My first reaction to realising how much and how often I checked the Instagram feed was to start thinking about an API. Perhaps that's a natural reaction, wanting to build things on top of a successful, social application, but I'm becoming more convinced that it's also the wrong one.
