BERG/Dentsu?s Incidental Media Sees Screens? and Paper?s Playful Future
Cheap print, networked screens and location-aware hardware could create a world where dynamic text is everywhere — as ubiquitous and natural as our current media ecosystem of street signs, alarm clocks, news tickers and train tickets. Design futurists BERG and ad agency Dentsu London, the team behind iPad Light Painting, have released two new videos for [...]ELECTRONICS FOR IMAGING ELECTRONIC DATA SYSTEMS ELECTRONIC ARTS ECLIPSYS EASTMAN KODAK CO

Video Game Storage ? LevelUp Ottomans
I wouldn’t say that I’m a neat freak, but I like an uncluttered house. That’s not saying that my house isn’t cluttered, because it is… except for my basement. It’s been newly remodeled and is the role model for the rest of the house. If you need a kick start to cleaning up some the [...]Filed in categories: Gaming Gear, Home Tech, News, Spotlight Gadgets

The Linux distro timeline is an extensive family tree of all things Linux
Most commercial products run a fairly set course; you get Microsoft Office 1.5, then 1.6, 3.0, 4.0, all the way up to office 2010 (For Windows, at least). It's a fairly orderly progression, with version numbers rising over time - pretty easy to follow.
Open-source projects are a different beast, however. When enough developers don't like the direction a project is going, they sometimes just create a fork and go on developing their own product. Sometimes projects have to fork for legal reasons, and sometimes it's a business decision, too.
The bottom line is that if you could plot the Linux timeline, it would look more like a crazy family tree than like an orderly progression of versions. And what do you know, one Donjan Rodic has gone and done just that, in the form of the GNU/Linux distro timeline.
Since this is an SVG file, it's not just a static image, and is capable of all sorts of aweosme: you can use Ctrl-F to search for a specific distro, and when you click a distro's name, you are transported to its home page.
Of course, since this is such a nerdy project, it wasn't produced entirely by hand. Donjan created an application just for creating the map, and then went ahead and open-sourced it. So... who wants to use it to create a timeline of all Web browsers?

Twenty-First Century Bonfire Lacks Heat But Not Looks [Video]
When I think of bonfires, I picture a blazing heat pit circled by beer-drinking, smores-making, flannel-wearing campers. The 21st century bonfire, an aleatoric light sculpture, seems to be a bit classier, catering more to the high-heeled, martini drinking type. [Vimeo] More »
