This is a great conceptual design of a future HTC smartphone.
I’m not 100% on board with the user interface, but the hardware design is fantastic.
Fascinating stuff. I can’t believe the amount of processed junk that the US family has. It’s striking that the other families have a significantly greater fresh food ratio with less expenditure.
A little humor for my fellow IT workers
A man is flying in a hot air balloon and realizes he is lost. He reduces altitude and spots a man down below. He lowers the balloon further and shouts: “Excuse me, can you tell me where I am?”
The man below says: “Yes, you’re in a hot air balloon, hovering 30 feet above this field.”
“You must work in Information Technology” says the balloonist.
“I do” replies the man. “How did you know?”
“Well” says the balloonist, “everything you have told me is technically correct, but it’s of no use to anyone.”
The man below says “You must work in business.”
“I do” replies the balloonist, “but how did you know?”
“Well”, says the man, “you don’t know where you are, or where you’re going, but you expect me to be able to help. You’re in the same position you were before we met, but now it’s my fault.”
A beautiful, creative, honest look at life through the eyes of artist Alex Noriega.
This is an intriguing dish. I may have to stop by on the weekend and rate it myself.

OnLive Gaming Platform Demo on iPad
I have to admit, I’m intrigued by the idea of using a gaming rental service that requires little hardware maintenance or overhead. If upgrades were all maintained by this service and all I needed was a thin client on the user side, that would be ideal. Most games that I play I end up trading back in to Amazon anyway, so a service like this would cut out the need to do so. No more pre-ordering or having to go to the store and wait in line. Something like this could really change the gaming industry.
My only concern is the incredible amount of lag while attempting to play on anything but a decent wi-fi connection. Hardcore FPS players would not be happy with any latency issues. I guess we’ll have to see when it launches.
Yesterday I received my Firefly keychain in the mail and I love it! QMx’s attention to detail always amazes me, which is one of the reasons I love working with them.
If you’re a Firefly fan, I HIGHLY recommend you get one before they run out.
Awesome use of pure CSS.
