March 6th, 2008 Cabbage Chair is a new product by Japanese designers Nendo made of waste paper from the pleated fabric industry. (via dezeen » Blog Archive » Cabbage Chair by Nendo)
Guido J. van den Elshout (AKA Happy Hotelier) sports 72 pages of chair design. Although he has left the tumblr for Wordpress. (How many followers do you have now?) It is still a wonderhaus library of seating. bookmark advised.

I always felt funny about throwing personal papers in garbage at Kinko’s. Now I know why. This “rube” at Found At Kinko’s collects Kinko’s detritus to share with the world. Seems so wrong. Yet I did go through all 5 pages. I see a bright future in The Ministry Of Information.

You non-criminal types..wait a minute nowdays criminals are students of the law, hunh? For those interested in legal matters Coleslaw is a meta tumblr chock full of legal info. Online since March 08 and aimed at entry level/college student. (Yes I added some googly eyes to the slaw. What can I say it was frightening me. Many people have been choked by unexpected slaw. This way I know where I stand at all times.)

I think using computing to make beautiful visualizations is the future. Especially when those visualizations give us new information. I am not really certain as to what can be deduced by Last.fm spirals. Hey Matt lay of the Wang Chung!
3 years agoUsed to be a great search service that worked so well. Lately…meh. The search is well..useless for tumblrs. But I still love a UI that says “release the spiders”.
Chalk it up to acquisition bureau -cracy.
Hello all, I have been recently quite excited about the work of a one Topherchris on “tumblrists.com”. (Right now offline.) But you can sign up to tumblrist.com it’s the best resource community for tumblrs that I have seen to date. But what I cought a glimpse of was a sematanticly driven relational database for tumblrs. That was cool. Give me more. (pant pant)
3 years agoYeah so I was all commited to continue my research into wonderful tumblrs. But then I lost all of my Firefox bookmarks. So my cache of sweet blogs is gone. The Tumblr community reached out to me but they are still looking pretty gone. So there you have it. Tear..sniffle.
