Great TED talks -

Intelligent crows - Weird but clever.


He is great, humble and ever the optimist. Love it! Nothing like a good toilet brush to see the world straight!


I used to really hate his work because of a severe lack of understanding and stubbornness. And whilst I am still not a fan of his work I do like his approach and his sense of humour.

When I grow up I want to be in Advertising ...

Us Now: documentary

Us Now from Banyak Films on Vimeo.

Interesting documentary about the state of the web community at the moment and how it may be going in the future. It's all about harking back to a time when community was king and show the softer side of social media.

Artemide Tolomeo Lamp XXL

I have the "normal" size version on my desk at work and have since become a little obsessed with the design of this lamp and now you can get it in XXL!

"The famous Tolomeo, icon of the Italian Design, becomes giant. In scale 4:1 relative to the table model, it's available both in indoor and outdoor versions."

Soundwalks

This may be horribly tacky and touristy for someone who lives here but I am a little intrigued by the paris walks. Found here. I am not sure if $12 is a little steep but it seems to have a pretty awesome backing with the likes of Louis Vuitton doing the tours in China and Puma sponsoring Running tours in various cities. The background mixes of city sounds and music could almost be worth it in itself. Have a look on the blog for sound clips. I think I may have to test one out and see.

Chase Jarvis

Chase Jarvis takes anywhere between 1 and 1000 photos on his iphone a day. This is why he is known as the best iphone photographer. But he also shoots a cracking photo of paris.

"The best camera is the one that's with you."

He is inspiring me to go out and take some photos of Paris. So I am going to hook my phone up with some editing software and take it for a spin.
