for my fellow nerds.

wow, i love it! a giant running wheel lined with grass.

heres a site that combines two things i love: good books and gorgeous design. [EDITOR'S NOTE: also featured as #369]

a must read from the times. looks at the modern answer to the question "how do i turn my lifestyle into a business?"

this one's on behalf of my mom. this neat little gizmo "unzips" your corn for you. forget those husking woes. =)

these pushpins are amazing! probably too lightweight for my wiring jobs, but still way better than most cable clips.

this could be really old, but nevertheless, im loving this shelf.

i know its cool design, but dont you find it slightly cruel for you dog to sleep in a sidetable?

this hoodie is supercute!

this image was too striking not to post. an article on the "battlefield" of group shows in chelsea.

saw these a while ago, but forgot to post. interesting storage solution?

jason polan draw some pretty wicked animals, but he does non-animals with style too.

its a cardboard box, or a cute table. amazing! and far more creative than my usual filing boxe side tables. =P

great times article on skull imagery in society.

love stylized animal forms, so when i saw this piece on mocoloco, i just had to post it!

a bit of a dual post. i love metrofarm's clean, simple style and they're also responsible for berlin's koi klub!

kinda awesome wrecks in rotterdam.

this site is such a gem, a real treasure trove of images.

this is a couple months old, but im not sure how much attention it got.

too bizarre not to post.

the classic enzo mari zoo puzzle features prominently in tomorrow's nytimes article on yves behar.

incredible, its made of straws! padlab has loads of other straw inspired objects too.

Pixile is a mobile projection system using sculptural installation. The Pixile creates a holographic illusion of spherical objects spinning, changing and reacting to each other in mid space.

love the pushmepullyou animal prints, but have held off on posting them...but today...the anteater wins. =)

Mattias Adolfsson is a new hero of mine. not only can he sktech gorgeously, his sketches are also delightfully playful. the layout of his sketchbooks is prety sweet too.

one more from r.los. how many times have you wished you could bring your bed with you...i know i will at 6am tomorrow...

oooh...love these lamps made from old CDs. =)

for some reason the SIXIXIS hangers reminded me of this piece by studiobility

gauckler's portfolio is filled with treasures...and the most bizarre characters!

theme hotel rooms are all the rage these days, but hotelfox seems by far the nicest. the good spirits room is my fave!

these bike frames are wild. not sure whether they're cool or ugly, but definitely different. if i were the cycling type...i might be tempted.

no, its not just crickets in a maze. it's CRICKET PACMAN! yes, its quite amzing and yes you need to check it out.

this image made me so proud of america. the article is about how messed up and wrong it all is, which is true. but professionalism in children beats the amateurism in this country.

these guys are old news, but they're still kinda awesome...

the god antennae gives a whole new meaning to wild. just needs one long spike to pick up lightning...

not hardcore as some of the tapes we've seen, but this swallow tape is really cute! as is much of sewell's stuff.

i randomly stumbled this ozzie architect's site and couldnt get over how gorgeous this image is...(it looks even better without the crop).

i know, ANOTHER one, but i cant help myself, this is just too awesome.

not usually a fan of the new scientist, but this ridable robot was kinda sweet.

website doesnt look like much, but this was so cute

apparently your monkeychow boy is selling his excess chow. wuss. the weirdest auction site is generally pretty awesome/gross though. =)

great posters, even better cause.

you dont get to read about prosapagnosia in the times everyday and this image was kinda sweet, hence a post.

profuse apologies to new readers. im not usually this crass, but this site was just too good. get your fill of rude food.

supercute buttons i found on this fun site. =)

i thought they were usb keys cuz they went on your keychain...but apparently this one can actually password lock your computer if you leave a 2m range. sweet.
