Shapeways - an artist-generated catalog of 3D-printed products - 0 views

  •  
    Shapeways has been around for a few years and has gained a lot of traction since 3D printing has gotten more common. It lets 3D artists upload their 3D model and sell it in a variety of materials to whoever wants it. It's sort of like Etsy of 3D printing, except the artist designs it and Shapeways processes the customer's payment, 3D prints it, and ships it. The artist gets some money and Shapeways probably gets more, but they have really high-caliber 3D printers so that's okay. They can also cast your model in metals, including gold and silver, which is something that can't be done yet with a home 3D printer.

Wordpress - probably the best thing - 0 views

shared by Ted Kessler on 04 Jun 14 - Cached
  •  
    Wordpress is a free and open-source software package originally designed for blogs but is also now used for websites, forums, and social networks. It lets programmers make plugins and themes and lets them distribute them for free or for pay. After reading through their documentation and examples in high school, I've used it to create several websites for clients -- free to me, and I can charge for my labor. Over the years it's gotten easy enough for almost anyone to put together with some effort and patience. It's putting the power of next-level internet content production into the hands of everyone, and it's getting easier every year.

7 most bizarre theme parks on Earth - 3 views

    From adrenaline-pumping roller coasters to life-like interactive rides, Americans love big amusement parks. But if yet another turn on the Scrambler or ride on the swinging pirate ship is leaving you yawning, we've got some more interesting theme parks around the world that give "theme" park an entirely new meaning.

    This is so interesting! I love looking at rankings like these to get a chance to see what you want to travel and see! the "Get your dig on" one is very funny!
  •  
    This list was hilarious and so cool! I love that there is an amusement park solely for China's dwarf population. Loved looking through the list.
  •  
    Like this a lot. Definitely added these to the bucket list.
  •  
    As a kid I have always enjoyed an escape to a theme park, and these theme parks are so different yet uniquely engaging in their own way. Shame there weren't more like them where I grew up.

Walking History Tour Of Portland - 0 views

  •  
    As a nexus for labor and shipping in the Pacific Northwest, Portland often had the repute of a rugged, rough and tumble town, more than willing to allow the miners, loggers, and fishermen an opportunity to part with their hard earned cash in whatever debaucherous manner they chose. Historian Doug Crispin will lead a tour around that will explain all the dirty details that lay behind some of these historic places, and take you back into the history of Portland, which has always big one of the bigger port cities in the world, filled with some good little secrets.

Vancouver Recycled Arts Festival - 0 views

  •  
    Vancouver will be hosting a recycled arts festival from June 28-29. There will be over 120 artists with stage perfumers, jugglers, and clowns. Nothing like mixing some good music with some good art. This is promoting the practice of recycling as well which I think is really important to show to people, and how recycled works can be just as good as those who use new materials only. It would be cool to see how one's trash develops into an artists treasure.
