This year’s collage was made during the Saturday of the Art Fair on the first weekend in somewhat of a haste and a poorer selection of source imagery than last.

Hey, @smartcarusa, stop messing around with poor performance and dipping your toes in the American market. We do want smaller cars, they just have to be high-performance; you’re on the right track with the concept above. 0-80 in under five seconds? Good. Space to transport our other toys? Check. Add in some off-road performance and maybe an iPad dashboard, you’ve got the ultimate car for my demo.
And believe me, that’s a good thing.

Google is learning.
Notice the example above, not only is the search engine pulling all manner of relevant results for you query, it is taking an actual stab at answering your question by using context. Known as the Knowledge Graph, it is Google’s big bet on the rise of semantic search, and more importantly, the algorithm’s ability to look past individual keywords. Moving from simply word-based results to a whole new way of providing answers is no easy task; as of right now, Google has about 200 million such ‘canonical entries’ but taking search to the next level is uber-difficult. The goal is undeniably clear, a computer that can understand user context, layer in a physical location, population characteristics, history of social interactions & the geopolitical implications that go with certain topics and you can see how the way we interact with information begins to quickly change.
Again.

Been rocking Rizzle Kicks Stereo Tropical heavily on rotation for the last few months. Its dope. A natural progression of the The Streets casual, everyday Brit hiphop that is just so damn visual you can’t help but love it. The kids rap real laid back and the lazy beats plus catchy hooks are a powerful combo.

“The Avengers” shattered box-office records in its North American debut this past weekend, earning $200.3 million in ticket sales, according to early estimates, making it the highest-grossing domestic opening of all time—and putting a stamp of validation on Walt Disney Co.’s $4 billion acquisition of Marvel Entertainment.

Take this from a long time comic book fan, The Avengers is the best Marvel movie ever-made. And undoubtedly the best portrayal of The Hulk in any live-action media. Ever.
Must Watch.
Now, the big question is, what will be the superhero movie of the summer? Avengers? Amazing Spider Man? Or the Dark Knight Rises?

In a world of rising urbanization, the degree of economic vigor that the economy of the United States derives from its cities is unmatched by any other region of the globe.

@Example - Midnight Run

Been listening to this dude for a while now, and seeing him live at his first US show on 3/26 @The Gramercy Theatre was pretty awesome.

We live in a society exquisitely dependent on science and technology, in which hardly anyone knows anything about science and technology.
