Jaguar bigger

update: flickr will take a 1280×1024 which is here. 

flickr is a little aggravating in that it will automatically downsize the 1600×1200 to 1024×768. There is very little noise and good resolution so it should stretch to your particular needs in your photo editor without sacrificing quality.

Discovering a co-worker’s blog means having to find out if you’ve been written about

I was standing there behind her, taking all this in, and then she finally sensed that someone was behind her, and she turned and blushed and turned back and alt-tabbed to a spreadsheet, but it was far too late. It was a century ago. I was standing there, and she’d been writing on her blog, and I knew it, and she knew I knew it, and there was no way to make any of it better.

I should have immediately said: Don’t worry. I have a blog, too. I’ll send you the URL! But I didn’t do that, and then it was too late, and we just needed to plow through these next few seconds and find some way to carry on with the rest of our lives, and hopefully someday we would be able to forget this moment where the private creative inclination and the zombie drone office workday crashed and burned. I tried to be as polite as possible.

This is funny, part of a much longer two part story. Says a lot about why this blog is anonymous.

A fuel cell powered motorcycle

ENV is the world’s first fuel-cell hydron powered motorcycle. Equipped with a “fully-integrated 1kW fuel cell generator providing power on demand directly to the drive-train,” the ENV can reach speeds of up to 50mph and run for approx. 4-hours without needing to refuel.

If you’re into commercial or industrial design you’ll appreciate the photo at the link. This does beg the question, can you be a badass cyclists on a fuel cell bike.
