Toy Masters

I grew up thinking how fabulous it would be to work at a toy company. I imagined that it would be one of the happiest places on earth. Well... this documentary about the people who created He-Man begs to differ. My childhood dreams are shattered...

The truth about clothes

So we've all had that moment. You try on something and it just doesn't seem to fit you right. You like everything about this article of clothing but it doesn't want to fit your body. You look skyward and think to yourself, "why can't this just fit me? I need a body like (insert famous celebrity name here). They always look so good."
Well, here's the truth about celebrities and the clothes they wear: it's ALL tailored. So next time, don't fret. Your body is fine. Just lament the fact you don't have enough money to have your own personal tailor.

iPad and iPhone GUI template resources

Was asked today if I knew of any good resources for iPad video GUI. Found these while I was poking around. Thought I would share the wealth. Teehanlax also has iPhone GUI templates if anyone is looking for those.

10x 10 x 10 ft cube house

Eco friendly home concept. Eco friendly, yes. Practical, yes. Realistic... I dunno.

3D Printer

I've heard about 3D printers before and wanted to try and get something printed once but I was too broke to pay for the cost of it (I mean I was seriously flat broke back then). The potential applictions for this is pretty neat.
