Cool Concept: Seabreacher Dolphin Speed Boat
This has to be one of the most outrageous aquatic vehicles I've ever seen! Inspired by dolphins, the Seabreacher is a submersible watercraft that is able jump, dive, and roll through the water at speeds up to 40mph, or 20mph underwater.
Designed and manufactured by Innespace Productions, the boat took over 10 years to develop and is easy enough to drive and maintain for the average person. The driver and a passenger are kept dry inside a sealed cockpit, but are free to look around through the glass top. Innespace offers a few different models to choose from. It retails for about $48,000 and comes with a number of options such as additional view ports and custom upholstery. Could you imagine watching these vessels compete in a 3D environment, jumping over and under obstacles and hitting objects? Imagine motocross in the sea...

Internet Tablet - Apple talks about it, Archos has done it. #archos5 See the pictures:

The company Archos makes portable entertainment gadgets that often feel like the future. For instance, it started making media players with big screens,video support, and TV output back when your average MP3 player was...an MP3 player. It announced the Archos 5 Internet Tablet on the cutting edge of multiple trends: tablets, Android-powered devices, and PC-like devices that aren't PCs in the traditional sense.
Touch screen with 800 by 480 resolution enough pixels to display typical Web pages with less need for zooming than on an iPhone or other more pocketable device. It's available in versions with up to 32GB of flash memory, and chunkier hard-drive based ones with up to 500GB of disk space.
It runs Google's Android-an operating system. Archos performed a fair amount of customization to the OS's interface, resulting in something that is recognizably Android (it has widgets and a slide-out drawer of apps) but which has been reconfigured for a higher-resolution display. Archos has also launched its own software store, which it's calling AppsLib; it's debuting with only a handful of apps that have been customized for the 5, but the company says it's going to work hard to ramp up the selection.
The device includes 802.11 a/g/n Wi-Fi and GPS, but not 3G broadband (although Archos says that may come along eventually).

you know, i think of myself as a bit of a writer...
You know you're a writer when writing is the only thing you do that doesn't make you feel as if you should be doing something else.

they weren't talking to me.. but their words spoke to me. Shortly before this I was walking my dogs, and I was thinking to myself, "I want to be so many things... but most of all, I want to be read"
The Future is here | Harvesting Robot for Future Agriculture - Gene Simmons & Tom Selleck want royalties
Here comes an amazing alga harvesting system designed to bring
advancement in future Agriculture. Algaster is a harvesting machine
with the capacity to harvest 100kg of alga and it stores the loan in
ten containers attached on the upper side. The unit is less powerful
but is created with more intelligent ideas. The shape of the unit is
similar to an insect with four legs. Algae are used for energy
production due to the high level of oil content. Algaster helps in the
process of water cleaning in polluted areas where algae expansion may
go beyond normal conditions. Once the unit stops its storage process
then a hot-air-balloon brings it on the surface.

A Flickr to Gander. Some cool stuff.
I actually love when people shoot lower bodies such as shoes and feet. Cropped off bodies, boots, shoes, feet, legs, pants, mid-air jumps, laces, and all. This guys got some. He seems to have a lot of band photos if you're into that sort of thing.
