Transportation
Sweet little photo gallery of cars participating in a recreation of the Mille Miglia. Including the winning BMW 328. Don’t miss the ultimate pedal car.
And here’s a gallery of black & whites from the inaugural MM won by the BMW featured above.
More old stuff. 1915 Indian, 8 valve boardtrack racer. Running and unrestored. All the moving partsare hanging out in the open on this fire breathing dragon.
Pretty girls and bikes. It’s been going on a long time, as this 1951 portrait of the winner of the Miss California Motorcycle Beauty Contest show.
Science and Technology
An interesting muse on the nature of “curated computing“and why the iPad is relevant to the future of information technology. Note that I said information technology; the _author_ is calling it computing.
More good news. Google will begin allowing https connections to google.com. Encrypted searching is now yours.I plan on using it.
Art, Images, and Design
Yeah I know there’s almost no excuse for posting something this inane. But come on, photoshopped dogs doing yoga. It just makes you smile.
Absolutely luscious travel posters. Advertising steamship lines in Japan at the turn of the (last) century. Something here will inspire you for the day.
Friday Animation
Lost Howdy Doody cartoon. Howdy Doody and His Magic Hat. Found in the dank confines of the LoC. Brought to you by the fine folks at Dinosaurs and Robots.
and that’s the week…
Oh, and somebody get this fixed for me ‘kay? (minions, not minkies, clearly there are idiots in shipping.…)
