Google’s Project 10 to 100 is an open call for ideas that will change the world by helping as many people as possible. On the site, you can submit an idea and vote on other people’s ideas. Final idea selections will be made by an advisory board, and Google has committed to funding the winners. The deadline is October 20, 2008.
The only kind of shopping I truly enjoy is grocery shopping, and even that can get to be a bit of a slog on the weekend, when the whole world is out thumping melons and squeezing the Charmin. For all other forms of shopping (with the possible exception, now that I think about it, of hardware), give me a cup of coffee and a catalog – no, not the Internet, but an actual paper catalog.
When it comes to buying stuff, I’m as happy as the average toddler to look at pictures, but oh, what a joy it is to slouch down on the couch with a catalog that ventures beyond materials and technical specs in its product descriptions.
I love a catalog with a sense of humor, a story or simply a whimsical approach to its subject. And why should it not always be that way? Sure, the product descriptions inhabit a modicum of space, but what does size matter: no copy was ever so avidly read as the predictive aphorism we find on the 2″ x 1/4″ slip of paper tucked in our Chinese fortune cookie.
