The Sydney Harbour Bridge was closed so that 6000 people could have a picnic. Beautiful!
Nice. Predates and looks like a nice companion to the stunning That’s It, That’s All. I found this via a link from titlecase of some beautiful time-lapse photography by the same filmaker, Brad Kremer.
Private vCard
It’s very cool being able to easily email your contact details from the iPhone. But I have some private email addresses for posting to various services (like tumblr) that I don’t want to share. This occurred to me immediately after I emailed that vCard to a new acquaintance. Oops.
Today I discovered that there is actually an option to pick and choose which details are sent in the vCard.

Set up this way, when you edit your card you will see a column of checkboxes that will let you exclude (uncheck) certain details from being shared. Neat! I wish I’d known about that sooner.

Now that is bad-ass.

Whenever I see one of these renderings with huuuuuge hovering things I think it would be cool to do a companion image showing their effects. The relevant technology is usually described as some sort of repulser. Something is pushing down to counteract gravity’s effect. Which in turn means exerting a force at least equal to its weight, down. So I imagine that they’re like enormous steamrollers crushing everything they pass over.
In this case Paris.
