WorldChanging
This is probably the most interesting book I’ve purchased in a long time. It’s a massive compendium of ideas and tools for making the world a better place. But don’t listen to me, listen to the rumours on the inkernets about it. Or ask the google about it. You know the drill.
The publishers of this book ‘hacked’ amazon’s best seller list by having people purchase the book on amazon at exactly the same time. The book shot up to #13 on the best seller list in one day.
BTW, I’ve opened comments again. It seems the spambots have slowed to about 200 comment spams a day. Down from several thousand… Ugh.

“DragonForce plays their own unique style of Extreme Power Metal!”
Who doesn’t like “extreme” power metal?

Zero 7 Futures Video by Robert Seidel
Music: Zero 7 feat. José González – Futures
Director: Robert SeidelThis low-budget video was done within just 2½ weeks for the planned DVD of Zero 7’s “The Gardenâ€. The video visualizes crushed objects representing a diffuse future of wishes and desires which shape over time. Visible artefacts and the rough synchronisation add subtle emotions to the uncertain process… Side note: Another video for the song was commissioned and got directed by Duckeye, as this one was too uncommercial…
