Bears

January 26th, 2008

Kent Rogowski’s collection of teddy bears turned inside out is sure to horrify most children who see them.

Amazing Guns

January 24th, 2008

This collection of “The Most Amazing Guns in the World” has some way out ones. While I am not even close to a fan of weapons, I admit the crucifix gun is pretty sweet.

Money Celebrities

January 22nd, 2008

An art mashup: half famous face and half money.

Feel bad about stealing music? Dear Rockers tries to put you a bit more at ease. Oh, you’re still a thief though.

Futility Closet

January 14th, 2008

I don’t remember if I’ve linked to Futility Closet before, but if I did this is a reminder to check it out. A great site, it’s full of random information, stories, mathmatical equations and lots more. Very nice.

The Map as History

January 10th, 2008

Relive moments in history using animated maps. Quite neat.

Color In Motion

January 8th, 2008

Learn a bit about some of your favorites in the Color In Motion online exhibit. Damn you purple and your aloof, arrogant, conflictive and cruel self.

If the The Overdub Tampering Committee is to be believed, this is pretty awesome.

The Workhouse Web Site

January 1st, 2008

Take a trip through time to the era of The Workhouse.

Curious Expeditions

January 1st, 2008

A weblog that I hadn’t heard of until recently but is now a favorite: Curious Expeditions. There are some really interesting historical finds in there.

I’m not sure when the Internet Archive added this many Feature Films, but having “Bad Taste” by Peter Jackson makes it a-ok in my book.

Vinyl Sleeve Heads

December 29th, 2007

Hold a record cover over your own face and viola! Vinyl Sleeve Heads.

This collection of odd clocks and other things to wake you up is full of items I’d probably smash the first morning.

Open Source Living

December 26th, 2007

Enjoy some open source software. From audio/video editors to games and RSS readers, they point the way to a bit of everything.

Break out your wallets: It’s the Most Expensive LEGAL Pets To Own.

Shortcuts is a Wordpress plugin they’ve recently released that offers quite a few things to your blog post. I wish Google would come up with more bits like this and spend less time trying to conquer the world.

Mmmm… virtual Jello.

This could possibly be the best photo of Stephen Hawking ever.
