This article says as much about how we could live as it does how we could write.

Absolutely mesmerizing geometric GIFS by Mr. Div, a kind of postmodern version of Benjamin Betts’s 19th-century geometry of consciousness.

App.net is an exciting new project to provide a social platform built for users and developers. With advertisement-based services (like Facebook and Twitter) the advertisers are the true customers and the user experience suffers. App.net is not advertisement-based; users pay for the service and (ideally) decisions are made in favor of the users rather than in favor of advertisers. Earlier today (or yesterday?) App.net reached its Kickerstarter-like goal of $500K. As I type the service continues to gain backers and has reached $722K with 13 hours left. It is an exciting day for a new community and I am excited to be a part of it!

This course is excellent. Not only is Paul Hegarty an excellent professor but he helped build some of the technology he is teaching. This course took place in the Fall of 2011 but an online class is taking place on Piazza this summer. Unfortunately the enroll date is long gone but that doesn't make the lessons and assignments any less valuable.

An Invocation for Beginnings (by zefrank1) "And God let me enjoy this. Life isn't just a sequence of waiting for things to be done."

Started watching this at the recommendation of a friend. It's a funny show with a lot to say about creativity and life. Most of them are very short. This one made me laugh: http://ashow.zefrank.com/episodes/36 (OMG Higgs) This one made me cry: http://ashow.zefrank.com/episodes/33 (Shoes)
