* +Ford Motor Company engineers now using MakerBots *
Like other automakers, Ford has been using 3D printing technology since the early 90s. Now they are expanding beyond dedicated labs that produce large scale parts to distributing desktop +MakerBot replicators so design engineers can quickly produce prototype parts.
If you're in real estate and you're thinking of getting head shots, do the world a favor and don't
But if you absolutely must, please invest in a really good, smart photographer and listen to their advice about what to do and more importantly what not to do.
Making of the Honda ad, "The Cog"
I wouldn't argue with the selection of Honda's "The Cog" as the greatest car commercial of all time
Some years back, +Honda in the UK created a remarkable commercial for the then-new Accord. Titled "The Cog," the two minute film features one of the coolest Rube Goldberg machines ever made. The most amazing thing is that the 2003 ad uses no CGI and it was done in a single uninterrupted shot all the way through.
Of course getting that one shot was no trivial matter. It took more than six months to create including four months of engineering the sequence of moving car parts (all from the Accord). Once they had it all worked out, it still took 606 takes before the entire sequence worked perfectly all the way through. http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/car-news/61487/best-car-adverts-ever
Grey as only the great +George Takei could pull it off!
Are they actually implying that Verizon might be lying to us? It couldn't be!
Every time I see something like this I am reminded that humans are not necessarily so special
If people just stopped and spent a bit more time observing animal behavior, they would realize that many of the qualities that we ascribe solely to humanity are in fact not really so unique.
Here's a great list of buzzwords that should be expunged from the language
Unfortunately I've had to deal with the overuse and misuse of buzzwords since long before I ever got into writing when I was still an engineer. I generally agree with everything on this list except for curate.
I think for many people curate may well just mean saving, but when done correctly, curation is much more. A great curator is also a great noise filter and sharer. Another word I'd love to see added to the list is another of those awful noun-verb transfers ideation. It's not a real word so let's not use it as one.
After seeing the Hobbit my question is does Peter Jackson need an editor to reign him in? or is the studio just exhibiting an insane amount of greed?
