I saw a story on CultOfMac about a session that was held at Cupertino City Council not too long ago where Steve Jobs where unveiling the new campus Apple want to build there. Not only is the building and the surrounding area a beautiful piece of architecture, the whole session is also very interesting since it shows Mr Jobs in a setting we often do not see him.

Abandoned desert oasis
I ran across this marvelous movie of a desert oasis now abandoned from Feber. Once it was the pearl of the desert and the outlook for it to be a heaven on earth was blooming. Today it is however nothing but ruins. Truly wonderful settings for a photographer or for that matter for anyone who every wondered what the earth would look like if all people just disappeared.
For more information about this strange place, head over to Wikipedia.

Choosing an online backup service
Lately I have come to the conclusion that I should get a good backup solution before my current hardware dies. Way to often we start doing our backups direclty after we’ve lost a disk and it is just the same with me. For a couple of years ago I lost my storage drive which held all my photos and documents which I have been collecting for about ten years. I managed to recover some of the contects (thanks to PhotRec) but I did decide that I would never come to that situation again. Well, now it has passed a couple of years as I said and I finally feel that the time has come to do some good backuping!

Indie merchandise for indie titles
I ran across an article form Boing Boing! about a guy called Laketide who was selling real life dirt blocks seen from the game Minecraft on Etsy. Naturally I had to check it out but what I did not expect was that the same seller really make Minecraft geek-ware in many shapes and forms.
