I love futuristic technology, and this Microsoft video is pretty amazing. I find it interesting that you can market a brand not just by demonstrating the products and services you offer, but by opening people’s minds to new concepts (even if they never really happen).

I happen to this this limited print poster is very clever.  It’s a limited edition poster, and it’s already sold out.

This is so cool!  At $200 K, it’s a bit expensive, but I’m hoping that the price will eventually come down and one of my friends will buy one. 

Chris, our Facilities Director, showed me this video this morning.

If this video is any indicator, this is going to be a great week.  Wow, I’m speechless!

Time lapse oragami + invisible hands = cool.

If I wasn’t married and didn’t have kids, I would save up all my money till I could go do this.  (I recommend using the full-screen feature to watch this).

I’ve watched this ten times, and it never gets old.

I love Facebook.  It’s a great social networking application, and it’s allowed me to stay in contact with a lot of people that I love in Texas.  It’s also helped me to learn more about some of my new friends in Tennessee.

My brother, Phil, is the one who convinced me to join, and I still remember the awkwardness of not having any “friends” on Facebook for a few days (even Phil wasn’t accepting my friend request), and it took me a few months to convince Keri that it was worth her time.  (She loves it now, by the way.)

The main reason I’m writing is to convince the rest of the Admin team at Faith Promise that they need to be using Facebook rather than (or at least, in addition to) Twitter.

So, could those of you already using Facebook give me a little help here?  What is it that’s so cool about Facebook?

Ben White introduced me to the love of fonts a few years ago.  I didn’t really understand the beauty at first, but that’s no longer true.  Fonts are pretty amazing in their ability to communicate, and they are amazing in their simplicity.  (Yes, I know I’m a dork.)

So I wanted to share this website I came across today so that it will either a) help you to love fonts too, or b) reinforce your understading of my dorkiness.

This guy inspires me!  I may have to name my next son after him, or something.

Last weekend I had the opportunity to hike a mountain in Colorado that I’ve been looking forward to climbing for several years.  It was an amazing and challenging experience, and I wanted to share some photos I took along the journey.
