SHORT CUTS

• Vanity Fair Writer Waterboards Himself

  This amazing video covers the story of Christopher Hitchens, a writer for Vanity Fair, who finds himself closer to the reality of Waterboarding tactics used in Guantánamo Bay.

• Beautiful Dark Knight Poster

  This makes waiting for this movie all the more exasperating.

• Neo FreeRunner Good to Go for Launch Next Week

  I'm pretty excited about the OpenMoko project. Ever since the release of the SDK kit last year, I've been waiting and hoping that this thing will be an equal qualifier to the iPhone, or at the least, Android. I cannot wait to see how this thing pans out.

• Bamboo Laptop Stand

  Found this one yesterday. I've been in the market for a docking station for my Macbook Pro recently, but have been unable to find something that knocks the socks of my feed and is ergonomic with my desk space. I'm down with this one.

• 100 Vim Commands Everyone Should Know

  As I use SSH more and more, it is becoming apparent to me that I need to be down with Vim. I am now up to speed and ready to tackle the world!

• SproutCore is Running a Competition

  SproutCore is a pretty amazing framework. I've been needing an excuse to use it since day one, and I guess this is my chance. July 21st is the due date if anyone is interested.

• Productive Procrastination

  NPR's Talk of the Nation talks about procrastination and how to be a "productive procrastinator". I never realized I could take something as dangerous as procrastination and use it to work for me. Priceless.

• Today ICANN Ruined the Internet

  Looks like anyone is going to be able to register a TLD domain. My my, so many problems this is going to cause.

  ∞

• Pantone Espresso Cups

  Yes, I admit, I am an espresso junkie. The blend of flavors and the pure sharpness to a single shot can make me smile for hours. But not only does the coffee get me excited, it is also the cups. A good cup can make all the difference in the world. If I lived in the UK, I'd buy these with out a doubt.

• Print Magazine

  Recently, I have been looking at a lot of magazine designs for the launch of a new magazine a friend of mine and I are working on. By far, Rumors' design of Print Magazine is one of the most beautiful concepts of clean typography and line positioning. My goodness, I love lines!

• Chinese Farmer Flies His Self Built Airplane

  This is insane! Apparently the Chinese call this, "shanzhai huaxiangji". Shanzhai literally means "little mountain village". Go Gadget Go!

• Fabrix Makes Hawt iPhone Cases

  These cushioned babies make your iPhone look cute as a button. They also make a 3G version.

  ∞

• Arrested Development Movie Pretty Much Confirmed

  Oh my. I thought this day would never come. Thank you so much, Mr. Bateman. This movie will change my life.

  ∞

• Vimeo Animates Their Subversion History

  Almost a year and a half worth of commits with some cool music. Very nice touch, boys.

  ∞

• Apparently Christopher Nolan Doesn't Use CGI

  No wonder he's my favorite director. Momento FTW!

  ∞

• NASA is Looking for Astronauts

  Pretty cool. No longer do you need to be a fighter pilot to go into space and land on the Moon. I think they should've made this into a reality TV show instead of a job posting.
