Ning is starting to look kind of cool:
All content is available to everyone else, unless it’s marked private.
So what we have is not a hosted framework service, but an ecosystem. An ecosystem that not only allows but relies on the ideas of remixing, mashups, and openness.
I haven’t got a developer key yet, nor looked through any docs – but hopefully on top of that it’s easy to aggregate to your own apps outside of ning.
Net zero energy home.
Our aim is to construct an urban single-family house that is ecological, socially regenerative and self-sustaining. We will only use energy generated on site. We would like this building to be an inspiration to other homeowners and developers in urban environments.

Great magazine, good read. I felt like this one was longer then the last two, and it is. By two pages. Needle in a haystack, huh? Just margin notes and page references to things I found interesting.

A great magazine I’ve been looking forward to getting for awhile now, with all kinds of interesting stuff. How to make real awesome stuff, directions and photos, stories, reviews of neat techo gear, and a great read. I’ll be waiting for awhile to get my next one though, unfortunately.
Another igloo building guide, again nicely illustrated.
I’ve always wanted to build one of these – and maybe even sleep in one sometime. Here I go.
This summer I’m going to teach a model rocket class, and I want to build the coolest launcher possible. This one is sick, and this simpler one isn’t too bad either.
