For a long time now, I’ve been a big fan of Matt Cutt’s blog, where he does these 30 day challenges. I’m not sure if Matt’s the one that originated it (I know of other big bloggers like Dr. Pete that are also big on this), but the shared inspiration and transparence is something that I’ve […]

Paradise or Oblivion
Some interesting futurist ideas about a totally new society that would embrace technology and automation at it’s core. Some of The Venus Project‘s concepts seem far out there and sometimes reach beyond what I totally understand. Regardless, these ideas are definitely a refreshing alternative to letting Fox and NBC numb your brain. Whether or not this […]

This quote site was one that I actually started having some fun with, and […]
