Pinterest is an online pinboard.
Organize and share things you love.
A hodge-podge of nifty stuff I see but don't feel like categorizing.

Very cool, Pinterest! "When you pin something from Lyst or one of their many participating retailers, you'll automatically be notified when that item goes on sale."

Transferring pictures is exceptionally easy and is done using a new Bump web interface along with the bump app on your mobile phone. To transfer pictures, you select the photos you’d like to move from within the app and tap your phone on your computer’s spacebar while you have the Bump web interface loaded.

Dorothy Holmberg timing is everything
Online supermarket Peapod is bringing its foodstuffs to Chicago's "L" transit system, with a new ad campaign that allows commuters to do their grocery shopping from directly within the city's train stations.... People travelling through the station can scan an accompanying QR code to download the free PeapodMobile app, which will allow them to scan barcodes listed on the products displayed in the ad.

Josh Copeland I wish it were 'nifty' but Peapod placed these virtual shelves down one of the busiest hallways in one of the busiest L stations in Chicago. It's probably fine any other time but rush-hour... which I gather is actually the people they wanted to target. Still - they got the buzz.
Geoff Dudgeon That does sound annoying. Still, I'd never fault an advertiser because their content was *too* interesting/compelling.

Jordan Running Reminiscent of SwiftKey, but the "flick" mechanic is compelling. But on my iPhone I "touch-type," if you will, only glancing at the keyboard occasionally—the better to catch awry autocorrects and take advantage of word completions—so I'm wondering how much this would benefit me.

Marco Arment's 'Useless Mug': "1 star: Can't believe I wasted money on this crap. I use this mug every day and want to rate it 5 stars but it still doesn't even support Google Buzz. Emailed the developers 5 times already! Will update this review once they add it."

Why I love the internet: a character in a webcomic (The Oatmeal) is wearing a witty shirt. Readers love it and want their own. The cartoonist delivers, almost immediately. ("Update: A ton of people were asking so I went ahead and put together Tesla > Edison shirts. They just went to the printer so they're pre-order only right now, but they should ship out in 10-14 days.")

WSJ's interesting approach to Pinterest engagement. [Quote: - Eric Fehrnstrom, adviser to Mitt Romney. The aide's comments set off a firestorm of reaction as critics and political rivals seized on the remarks as what they see as further evidence of Romney's purported flip-flopping on issues. "‘Etch-A-Sketch’ Quip Shakes Romney Camp", March 21, 2012.]

The official design for the disc-art on the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo DVD makes the disc appear to be a pirated copy, designed to mimic a blank, home-burned disc with the movie's title handwritten in black marker on it.

Paddy Downey I was really disappointed with the American version of this movie. The original version the female character is not victimized in the end.

Monique Gates What a cool and yummy idea! Except I don't think I'd try the jalapeno.
Heather Edwards Amazing. Did you buy the flavorings? Care to share any recipes?
Geoff Dudgeon I'll try to get my neighbor (the genius behind this setup) to share the recipes (they were all home-made).
Heather Edwards Thanks! I love the idea and think it would be perfect for a little party I am throwing next weekend. :)
I ♥ proper attribution! (ahem, Tumblr users...)

The Morgan Plus E, shown at the Geneva Motor Show, is an electrified Morgan Plus 8 with a 70-kilowatt (94 horsepower) Zytek motor in place of the BMW V8. The little motor that could puts down 221 pound-feet, an impressive figure for something so small. Morgan didn’t offer any specs on the lithium-ion battery pack, but said the rear-wheel-drive car has a range of 120 miles.
