    fun times & startup launches

    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.

    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.

    Excellent book detailing how exactly we can begin to stop incessantly raping the earth. Improving the way we build and manufacture things: build things to be recovered and reused, not recycled, but upcycled – made into more valuable or at least equally valuable things after being consumed instead of lesser.

    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.

    how stuff is made

    Sort of like my favorite childhood book – How Things Work. A good look at, well, how things get made. From the faq:

    HowStuffisMade is a visual encyclopedia documenting the manufacturing processes, labor conditions and environmental accounts of contemporary products.
