Smallest…as in sub-atomic. Obviously it’s Japanaese.

The Cutting Edge: Bicycle Lawnmowing via Digg

I can’t for the life of me decide if these are just toys or a serious cry for help. Especially those bikes that have the blades mounted in place of the front wheel. I can just picture some kid playing steamroller with this thing.

Hey Guys! We’ve made our way from San Francisco all the way down to Ontario, California, but we didn’t leave before having a ball there. On Tuesday, September 25th, we met up with Martin Mckeay and Tom Pose at the 21st amendment. Martin we had met previously at the Podcast and Portable Media Expo, and Tom was a pleasure to meet for the first time.

A little while later that night Thomas Hawk and some other photographers that hang out over at Zooomr met up with us to go out on a photowalk. That was a lot o fun! We walked and shot pictures for quite a while. I got to see a side of San Francisco that I hadn’t seen before which is great, and what I think photography is all about. Seeing things from a different perspective. You can view my pictures here, and the groups photos here.

Anyway, Tonight is the live show! (Wish us luck) at the Marriott in Ontario, California! See you there, hopefully.
