My husband Chad’s love of diving and training other divers has taken him to some of his favorite destinations: Hawaii, Micronesia and Utila. He […]

I had to watch the video quite a few times … this is a paint roller designed to communicate and print pixels from any digital imagery - text or photos on a variety of surfaces. It’s like a handheld printer. I found this on the rAndom international website - amazing ingenuity - I wonder how […]
What you are looking at is a “semacode” tag for www.happyfish.com. I first read about the whirlwind of tagging technology available for today’s camera phones at TrendWatching.com.

Their website has recently been expanded on and there is more information about what Virgin is […]
Pantone reports that the European retail market for winter 2006/2007 is showing a transition from bold colors to monochrome. Simple, streamlined, clean, textures.
