Side step Facebook app readers
Here’s a Facebook nerd tip. Instead of installing a reader for every website/magazine article you want to read on FB. Just google the headline and you can find the direct page and you have kept what shred of privacy one has left.
Introducing the App Centre - Facebook Developer Blog.
A handy directory of apps using FB? Yes, please. The run down: You can easily find apps, view ratings and based on your device type, be directed to the store of choice for purchase/download. Sounds good on paper!
Keith Haring’s pop art celebrated in today’s Google Doodle
Keith Haring — whose iconic cartoons came to define New York’s art scene in the 1980s — got his own Google Doodle today.
Haring was born in Reading, Pennsylvania, May 4, 1958 — 54 years ago today. He died in 1990 from complications due to AIDS. He was 31 years old.
His drawings, with their bold lines and bright colours, were “an expression of the optimistic indulgence of this period,” art historian Natalie E. Phillips wrote, “a representation of the New York club scene as well as homoerotic currents, and a visual tool for the campaign against AIDS.”
May the Fourth be with you. Always.
(But just in case, take an umbrella.)
Seems like IKEA are really shaking things up this year. In addition to the previously announced TV set, they’re also going to release a digital camera made of cardboard called Knäppa (“Snap”). It’ll hold 40 photographs at a time and plugs directly into your USB port. While it’s not the prettiest camera the world has ever seen, I do love the idea of a screen-less digital camera that brings people back to the wait-and-see days of film.
Then you have to build your photo.

Use a zipper today? You’ve got this man to thank
Gideon Sundbäck — who changed the way we do-up our flies forever when he invented the zipper — got his very own interactive Google Doodle in honour of his 132 birthday today.
A 9 year old boy - who built an elaborate cardboard arcade inside his dad’s used auto part store - is about to have the best day of his life.
made me smile :)
