Geekosystem - Your Geek Guide To Tech & Internet Culture The Social Radio Lands on the iPhone Latin America was very well represented among the finalists of the Mobile Premier Awards this year, with no less than four contenders, coming from Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Mexico. While none of them made it to the winners’ list, it would be a mistake not to take a closer look at what we found out to be very interesting apps. As a matter of fact, the high level of today’s competition is the only possible explanation for The Social Radio not getting an award. On the heels of its participation to MWC, the startup has now launched an iOS app. All of them perform the same task, which is to let their users tune in to their social networks on their mobile devices as if they were radio stations.

It’s worth noting that you can choose to select a specific list or hashtag your full timeline is too overwhelming or diverse.

Items used to build this stove: * Coffee can * Can opener * Tin snips * Drill and drill bits * Metal coat hanger There are many methods that could be used to build this stove. We use a metal coat hanger to build rods which will help hold up the cooking pot. The top side of a coffee can is already opened. We then used the tin snips to cut a small door. We tried to use a can piercer (triangle can opener) to make the holes instead of a drill. For this project we used a drill with a 1/2 inch drill bit to make the larger holes at the bottom of the can.

Ferrari Millenio by Marko Petrovic The Ferrari Millenio, as the name might allude, is a futuristic super-car concept that features a complex combination of materials and technologies that we can hope will become a serious reality before the end of the next millenium. The two-seater includes a buckypaper reinforced body that is stronger than steel and lighter than carbon fiber as well as dual electric engines that can be recharged via solar panels or through an inductive power transfer system.

If you don't know your hardiness zone, follow the link to find out. Armed with that information, the list will give you a good idea of the herbs that will grow for you outdoors year round: USDA Hardiness Zone Map If you see an herb you'd love to cultivate but it's not suited to your growing zone, there are still a few things you can do: You can grow the plant in a pot and bring it indoors in winter. If an herb on the list is marginal, say the difference between a and b within a zone, or just over the border into a different zone (5 degrees colder in winter than recommended), it may still survive in a protected spot, like in an alcove between two buildings or between a building and a solid fence.
