The past couple of weeks have felt more like deepest Winter than high Summer. The weather has not been conducive to… well anything really, so I’ve spent lots of time just staring at the Internet. When I have had to step outside I saw lots of bats and toads – very witchy.

We’ll start off with a (vaguely?) weather related issue – climate change. I was intrigued to know if our house would survive if all the ice caps melted. Annoyingly, the sea level would rise by 68.3m (according to this website anyway) and as our house sits at 65m it’d survive but we’d be stuck on the roof. That’s what you get for living in a bungalow I suppose…

Now the subject of flooding leads us nicely onto this next link. Click it and watch the movie. What I really like is even if I didn’t think the subject was very interesting (though of course, I do) how stoked is that guy on architecture?! It’s nice to hear people get excited about what they do.

I found the next link on the Verde blog. It should take you to an old Gizmodo post which directly compares current Apple designs which those of Braun in the Sixties.

I’ve never really given Brian Tunney’s blog the time it deserves (the name is rather off putting). Seeing as the grey skies showed no signs of letting up I spent a good while trawling through the archives and I’m glad I did because otherwise I would never have found The Lost Bob Scerbo Interview. Basically, what you have there is a conversation between my two favourite personalities in bmx. This then sent me on a mission to watch loads of Bob’s old video parts, a selection of which have been collected here.

Actually, while you’re there, check out the first minute of the am:pm edit, I love it! You can tell I’ve got cabin fever, that’s two exclamation marks in the space of one post.
