Fantastic Fridays

Curated collection of my favorite finds, just in time for your Friday Night:

• Lifted From the Ground Like a Bird’s Nest: Toda House in Hiroshima:  I fell in love with this house because of the concept of having the yard in the middle of everything.
• Gallery of Beautiful Video Game Installed Stained Glass: if I could redo the windows in our homeschool / playroom, these would definitely be a part of the renovation.
• UpDesk: really wish we could get these at work. Would probably help me burn those extra calories!
• MoviePass:  what if you could pay a monthly fee and go to the movie theaters unlimited times? That's the concept behind MoviePass. I think this could really catch on with those hardcore movie goers!
• Inside Google Data Centers:  seeing inside their facilities is enough to make everyone's inner geek excited.
• Play the Rings of a Tree like a Phonograph: never really thought about this before. An intriguing concept with a tinge of artistry.
  
• Lord Voldermort Tries Alternative Spellings:  'nuff said. (Please excuse the title of the blog).
  
• Easel: ever wanted to design a web site without having to touch the code? While I have the skills to program a site, sometimes I am more interested in the design phase. Easel is an online tool that allows me to focus on design while taking care of my code in the background.
  
• Smarter Stand: great improvement for your iPad smart cover.
  
• Awesome People Doing Awesome Things: well, I don't know the people personally, so I can't judge their character. But they are doing some pretty amazing stunts.
