Being weird was normal at Centauri Summer Arts Camp. In my exit email at EA, I said I loved our creative coworkers because they reminded me of my friends at arts camp with more technical skills. It’s hard to find an environment like that.

Is the bird jumping over the moon supposed to be the bird from Twitter’s logo?
I’ve heard about research studies suggesting to unplug from gadgets 1 hour prior to bed to help clear your head of distractions and ease the falling to sleep process. Well, before you close your laptop tonight, watch this video.
This book might just be the best book for the technologically savvy iPad-toting parent who already knows what to expect when you’re expecting. And if you’re childless, pick it up as a coffee table book anyway – it can be a conversation piece when you’re entertaining guests and they look up from their phones to notice your decor.
I fondly remember reading this book, the original classic:
Now that Thanksgiving is over and Halloween costumes have (hopefully) already been picked out, it’s time to go shopping for gifts for the holiday season before the malls hit maximum capacity.
For the youngsters on your list, you may want to consider buying an iWood laptop. Well, ‘laptop’ may not accurately reflect its true product description, but it sure looks like one. In the place of an LCD screen is a chalkboard and instead of a trackpad in the ‘keyboard’ area, there is a compartment to store pieces of chalk.
Chalkboards can offer a nice, creative aesthetic when aiming for laid back, eclectic or unique decor, so it only makes sense to let kids partake in the fun. Eight years old may be too young to appreciate owning an iPad, but for less than $60, the iWood laptop makes a great gift idea!
The trouble with Oscar statues is that they aren’t packaged the same way Mattel and Hot Wheels toys are – there is no explicit age warning.
As seen in the clip, 15-month-old Lara Egan, the daughter of The King’s Speech’s co-producer, Simon Egan, lost her grip of her father’s Oscar at a celebration on Feb 28, the day after the highly anticipated awards ceremony.
“Like everyone else I was celebrating off in one corner of the garden with some friends when I saw my daughter looking very cute with the Oscar having her picture taken,” Simon recalls.
Immediately after the award fell out of her hands, Simon heard it hit the concrete.
Shortly after contacting the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the Academy replaced Simon’s damaged Oscar with a brand new one.
“I had no idea that they had an ‘Oscar Hospital’ on standby,” he told the press.
Thanks to the Academy’s quick response however, Simon no longer needs to worry about how a damaged award will look on his mantelpiece.
