Blog Marathon Post 17. Interesting things I have come across in last two weeks

The way information flies into our lives is really amazing. Apparently, the amount of information processed by an average person every hour is more than people processed in their entire lives just 50 years ago.

I love to know new, radical, weird and otherwise random facts and news. New inventions and out-of-the-box ideas fascinate me. As does Art of any kind. I am listing here a few things that came my way this week and I found them interesting and fun, or just noteworthy:

1. Land airbus: Future of cities. This is not the latest news, but I like this video which depicts how the Land Airbus would work in managing public transport in cities that are getting increasingly crowded.

2. Superhero caped socks! All I can say is, awesome :)

 

3. India Update. Came across this wonderful blog by Shovon Chowdhury, that publishes news that are not entirely true, but in a very believable manner, with huge servings of subtle sarcasm on the politics of India and related to India. Loved it!

A wonderful post

4. Here is a list of "soft" addictions or habits that cost us in the long run.

Hidden habits that can hurt.

5. This one about the US supreme court ruling made me go "huh?" and then laugh out loud.

6. Nat Geo always manages to put a smile on my face. This time it was this pic. Reminds me of someone I know ;)

7. Profound. Life Happens When I'm Making Plans

8. See.me A new space where people are showcasing their art.

See.me

9. This is something that I want to try. Once I get my business card printed, that it.
