IBM Next 5 in 5: 2011 (by IBMLabs)
IBM unveils its sixth annual “Next 5 in 5” — a list of innovations with the potential to change the way people work, live and play over the next five years. The Next 5 in 5 is based on market and societal trends expected to transform our lives, as well as emerging technologies from IBM’s Labs around the world that can make these innovations possible.
In this installment: you will be able to power your home with the energy you create yourself; you will never need a password again; mind reading is no longer science fiction; the digital divide will cease to exist; and junk mail will become priority mail.(via smartercities)

Cool behind the scenes piece on Monday Night Football. Mike Tirico is gracious and complimentary to the huge staff behind the scenes that makes that show happen.

More from Jonathan Harris today…He launches the project he has spent the last couple of years working on. Cowbird. It truly seems like the culmination of all the things he’s been talking about and working on as I’ve followed his travels the last few years.
His drive is inspiring and humbling. His work always feels like him…which is so rare in today’s world and he makes things that he truly believes in, not just things that he feels will get the most funding.
They are tools for all of us and Cowbird is no different. It gives everyone the chance to tell their story easily in a beautiful way. I can’t wait to start using it.

“Dance music is the new punk rock”
-Perry Farrell after Deadmau5 show at Lollapolooza 2011.
I’m not sure the metaphor is just right…but after going to check out this show in October, you can’t argue the energy of this scene is exploding. 6 sold out nights at Roseland Ballroom at an average of $100 a ticket certainly tells a tale. One of more impressive “shows” I’ve seen. Tron meets U2.

Truly. Watch the video to experience this live. This kinda reaction just sums alot of this whole movement up. Its a “you’ve gotta be kidding me” moment.

Having been in LA for the last couple of weeks has gotten be thinking about bikes more than ever…bikes that can hold surf boards. This is an amazing product design from the fuseproject team.
This is the kind of thing that should be a big hit down along the coast of California…and hopefully continue what seems to be a growin movement to push bike culture into the traffic plagued areas around the Canyons, West Hollywood/Hollywood, Los Feliz and Echo Park.
