Time-traveling on Twitter (1)

Dreams of Gears and Steam (6) 1 week ago permalink

http://twitter.co... is written from the perspective of a geek time-traveling in 1908. Amusing.I forget if I mentioned the Twitter fiction experiment Dame Jetsam before. It's rather more gaslight horror than steampunk, but may appeal. Alas, it's too disorientingly fragmented for my old-fashioned brain to follow. It's definitely well-written, though.

Guy Kawasaki's tweet on the new http://webdesign.... led me to Smashing Magazine's story on retro and vintage elements in web design, which led me to a handful of websites I thought might visually appeal to steam/dieselpunk fans:http://dollardreadful.com/ (content may be relevant to your interests)http://www.sensisoft.com/ (warning: plays music)http://www.mediaboom.com/main.html (ditto)http://www.level2d.com/ (warning: plays a sound when it loads...though it's a rather nice airplane engine hum--also note the radio at the bottom left that you can turn on! heehee)Content ...

Gamer+Girl: How to Get Your Girlfriend into Gaming (1)

by Robyn Fleming (2) on

Fantasy Magazine (2) 1 week, 1 day ago permalink

1. Consider dating someone who is already a gamer Seriously. If you have a strong interest in gaming (or anything else), doesn’t it make sense to pursue people with similar hobbies? One of the things that baffles me the most about the “How to Get Your Girlfriend into Gaming” lists is that they generally proceed from the assumption that “Your Girlfriend” not only doesn’t like any of the things you like, but might actually even ...

Looks like a leaf: Superstructure chair by Bjorn Dahlstrom (1)

cribcandy's all Wists (8) 1 week, 1 day ago permalink

add to my Wists "Superstructure chair by Bjorn Dahlstrom is a masterpiece of modern Scandinavian design. It carries on the design heritage set by such masters as Hans J. Wegner et al. Superstructure chair will be a centerpiece of every space it's brought in. Its sculptural form and skillful crafting makes it something to talk about." vialink http://mstetsonde... vialink

Eagle Eye (4)

Waiter Rant (11) 1 week, 1 day ago permalink

It’s ten o’clock at night and I’m leaving the movie theater with my friend Mike. It’s Mike’s 37th birthday so I liberated him from his wife and infant son and took him out for beers and a movie. After consuming greasy man food and a pitcher of Bass Ale, we went to see Eagle Eye – a movie about an all seeing, super secret government computer system run amok. While the movie was visually stunning, ...

cribcandy's all Wists (8) 1 week, 6 days ago permalink

add to my Wists "The Wire Stay for Doug Mockett is the latest product from New York-based design agency Harry Allen. The simple extruded flexible rubber let's you group cables neatly together and can be fixed to a wall or desk by drilling through the center groove, or using some good old double-sided tape on the base which has a serrated surface. The WM25 wire management device is available in powder blue, mango and avocado."
