APH Love Shine by cirno, made at DoInk.com
Cirno is only 14! Her style, composition & eye for detail blow me away.
I’ve been drowning in RSS for months now. At first I needed to mark each shiny new post as ‘read’, but this quickly devolved into the “hit the spacebar quickly” game; articles worth reading were skimmed as readily as the news fodder.
I was aware of Marco Arment’s Instapaper, a tool to bookmark articles as “interesting to read when you have the time”. Today I learned that it can send weekly digests to my Kindle. I’m in heaven.
Marco, I have one question for you: how do you get paid for this flow? While I have an iPhone, I don’t really need the Instapaper app… though I’m willing to pay you $5 just the same. What’s your preference?
I’m no fan of infidelity, but it’s no surprise to me that the kind of personality that succeeds in politics is the kind of personality that is susceptible to ‘tasting the fruits of power’.
What interests me more than the affairs of the Governor from South Carolina, is the answer to this question:
What happens to our popular notion of morality when the Facebook generation grows up? When every person on earth is tagged in a photo a) drunk b) stoned c) compromised?
Clearly, we’re going to drop quite a bit of pretense. What else are we going to lose & gain?

This is mind-blowing stuff. Peter Molyneux has a history of aiming high, and while some would argue his results are mixed, personally I feel he always manages to capture the essence of something amazing with each game he releases, even if the framework surrounding it doesn’t weather quite as well.
Abcx3 3D Cookie by abcx3, made at DoInk.com
I’ve posted about the ingenuity of the users on DoInk before, and I can’t help but write again. Here is an example of a 3D rotating cookie… made in our 2D animation package. What’s especially amazing, is that this isn’t ‘hand-drawn’ (ie: frame-by-frame). Abcx3 has figured out how to reproduce rotating 3D objects consistently. There’s not a line of source-code I’m not familiar with, and yet it’s beyond me how he’s doing this.
Go DoInk!
fred-wilson: this is very cool. scratching the table to control your computer.
Agreed, I love how low-tech ingenious this is!
