Happy New Year
Race and Ethnicity Maps, All in All We’re Just Dots on a Map
Here’s something good for wasting away (but not really a waste) a couple of hours, Race and Ethnicity Maps from Eric Fischer. He’s taken the 2010 census data and created city maps with dots that represent skin color according to where we live. It’s amazing to see just how stringent the color lines still are. Segregation? What segregation?
Check out a bunch more on his Flickr here.

I’m usually not a fan of all of the lists that show up at the end of the year but this one about science fiction that is no longer fiction is pretty cool.
Krink/Montana Fire Extinguisher In A Can- The K-750
“750ml/25oz of premium quality matte finish paint and is capable of creating lines 4M/12’ tall! A unique Krink concept paired with Montana’s advanced engineering, the K-750 sets a new standard in innovation.”
Damn, a lot less conspicuous than hauling around an old fire extinguisher.
