7 Photography Projects – I love my DSLR camera, but between a lack of time and some lack of creativity, I don’t find myself shooting many fun photos. This guid has lots of ideas to get the creative juices going and I can’t wait.
Millennium Falcon papercraft – Wanna make a Millennium Falcon out of paper? You know you do. Here’s the templates and instructions.
100 Greatest Hits of YouTube – Someone compiled the 100 greatest hits of YouTube in a 4 minute video. I think it’s missing a few, but still a good watch.
Google SideWiki – Google’s new SideWiki makes it posttible to share your input on any page online with the plugin.
The EV Project – “The ultimate goal of The EV Project is to take the lessons learned from the deployment of these first 4,700 EVs, and the charging infrastructure supporting them, to enable the streamlined deployment of the next 5,000,000 EVs.” Sounds like a pretty cool project withe the Nissan Leaf and it looks like Phoenix will be the first pin on the map.
Star Wars Uncut – These guys are crowdsourcing a remake of the classic Star Wars. It’ll either be really good or really bad, but either way, I’m guessing you don’t want to miss it.
Xtranormal – If you can type, you can make a movie? Sure. I made a test movie in about 2 minutes. Pretty cool. If you make a movie, post a link in the comments.
Ping! for the iPhone – Blackberry has their BB-to-BB messaging and now we have Ping! for iPhone-to-iPhone messaging. I’m joe.tech, so Ping! me.
Wireless Electricity – It’s been talked about before, but now it’s becoming a reality. Some day, I’ll just set my phone down and it’ll charge untethered.
Bokeh bar codes – Mix Bokeh photography principles with bar code design and you get a super tiny bar code. Try to find that one when using the self-checkout machine.
Who looks like you? – Coke Zero came up with this Facial Profiler project as a unique marketing campaign. I submitted photos. I’m a little anxious and a little scared.
Stormtroopers 365 – Ever wonder what a Stormtrooper does on his days off? Here’s all the photo evidence.
Tron test footage – If you’re excited about the Tron remake like I am, you’ll enjoy this sneak peek.
No more Bookmark Fridays? That’s right. I’ve come to realize that with my unpredictable schedule, it’s just not realistic to plan for a bookmarks post every Friday. I still want to provide bookmarks every week, however, so welcome to the first of many Weekly Bookmarks posts. Each week (usually on the weekend or Monday morning), I’ll post a list of some of my favorite links for the week just like I did with Bookmark Fridays.
I’ve also decided to stop linking to twitter accounts (at least for now). Only the same two or three people ever request the link and while they’re good people to follow, linking to them every week provides no real benefit to anyone.
With all that out of the way, let’s have some bookmarks:
AT&T MSS is early! – Well that’s what people are reporting, anyway, but not me. I just upgraded to 3.1 and no MMS still.
Get more web traffic – 21 untapped traffic sources is a pretty good list of ways to get more traffic to your wite, blog, youtube videos, etc.
Seeduino Mega – One of my employees, Jared, just bought one of these. It’s like the famed Arduino open-source electronics prototyping platform, but “much better” according to the employee. He said he suggested Seeduino send me one to play with. I wonder if they will.
Liquidware – This was also pointed out to me by Jared. These boards can connect to each other and when one gets new software loaded onto it, any others connected to it will find and download the same software until the whole colony of them are updated. Watch the first video on the site.
People of Walmart – I know. It’s bad, but sometimes you just have to laugh at silly people.
Your world of text – Just click and type. It’s a blank slate anyone can come in and add to or edit.
TowerGeeks – More stuff I want to buy and play with. I love the towers that you can just slide boards into.
Searchslate – What a great idea. I should have done that. In fact… (to be continued)
It’s the end of the month, and it’s also Friday, so I’ve got some bookmarks for you. I missed a couple weeks, but I’m back with more links for you today. Sorry for the lapse! As always, if you want a link to your Twitter account, just follow me on Twitter and tweet the following:
@joetech I want a free link in your Bookmark Friday post : http://www.joetech.com/suggests/bmftw
This week, we have just one:

Now for some bookmarks!
Phoenix Astronomical Society – Did you know you could see Mars last night with the naked eye? There’s so much going on if you look up at night and a friend pointed me to this site to keep more informed about local stuff going on.
Animoto – I haven’t had time to really play with it, but this looks like an awesome way to make your photos and videos fun to share.
Amazon Mechanical Turk – Mturk is often forgotten, but is a great tool for getting some help getting stuff done without having to actually hire anyone or find contractors on your own. This is especially useful for getting tons of tiny things done in bulk.
Read before you rent a car – Think your own auto insurance covers everything when you rent a car? Read the fine print. If you don’t, you could be out a lot of money if you have an accident.
SERPs page 1 ranking – While this might not apply to some of you, those with web sites should read this article on how to land on the first search results page in Google with minimal effort.
It’s the end of the month, and it’s also Friday, so I’ve got some bookmarks for you. As always, if you want a link to your Twitter account, just follow me on Twitter and tweet the following:

Guess what time it is. As always, I’m starting with the Twitter suggestions. Don’t forget, if you want a link to your Twitter account, just follow me on Twitter and tweet the following:

I’ve been interviewing people all week, so I’ve had less time to play on the web, but I did manage to come up with a handful of links:
Stupid guy slapped – Nobody should really condone violence, but this guy really had it coming. Watch the video.
A plea to Apple – Augmented reality on mobile devices is an inevitable next step. Unfortunately, Apple isn’t letting us have it on our iPhones. C’mon Apple. You finally gave us video late in the game. Now catch up and give us AU.
SMC Phoenix – As I try to make myself available for more local tech groups and events, I found this and I think I’ll have to try and make it since it’s only once a month.
Twestival Phoenix – Twestival is coming again and I’m volunteering this time around. We’re still picking a charity and working out details, but I expect it to be good again, so bookmark and plan to show up!
20 inspiring Wordpress footers – I like my design, but I’m always open to new ideas and this link is full of inspiring footer ideas.
Make money with PayPerPost v4.0 like I do.
