All you have to do is take some photos – which you never delete from your camera – so when someone finds your camera at the bottom of the gorilla pit they are able to locate you and return the lost property to its rightful owner. http://www.andrewmcdonald.net.au/a-picto...

I love this. - Nicholas Kreidberg
I like how everything is clear and readable except the email address. - Alex Scrivener
LOL That's funny, but yeah...what's with the email address being so small? - Anika
At any rate, I had a video I made with all my info on it. I accidentally took it off my chip, but I'm positive I copied it to my camera. Unfortunately, I don't know how to access my camera's memory and the cord has been lost. One of these days, I'll RTFM. =) - Anika
that was great.......lol - just ZONED
genius. - Morgan
I like how the facial expressions match the whiteboard :-) - Rene, Pro Button Pusher
The other pics build empathy, encouraging a border-line thief to return the camera. Otherwise you may as well stick a label on the case and be done with it. - Alex Scrivener
Does anyone else want to make out with this guy for being SO DAMN AWESOME? Srsly, total panty-dropper this one was. - Hookuh Tinypants
@tinypants I totally agree! - vicster
God. That really *was* awesome. Anyone hesitating, go on, click the blue arrow so you can read the whole thing XD - Kamilah Reed (K. Gill)
this is win. - Colette
he's sweet, but it won't work - 我是真砂!
this would make an amazing ad : ) - liladreams
wow, this is very close to being the most popular thing I have ever posted to Friendfeed. Just goes to show, um, something. Always use pictures? - Alex Scrivener
Yes, Always use pictures! For one thing, I might sketch your stuff one day! Also yes, it helps your posts stand out. - Kamilah Reed (K. Gill)
Awesome! - Josh Haley
I'm the opposite. I tend to ignore posts with photos (unless the post itself is just a photo). Why? The image usually detracts from the text and people spend time talking about the picture and making it clear they didn't bother to read the text or link. - Anika
=/ (not about the original post. I already expressed how much I love it) - Kamilah Reed (K. Gill)
Or you could just put an address sticker on the camera... - Lix
No, the pictures try to build an emotional connection with the finder. It helps convince a not-so-honest person to return the camera rather than just keep it. It won't stop a real thief, but it could tip the odds in his favor. A sticker can't do that. - Alex Scrivener
There should be a place in your camera for email address, like cell phones have "Home" so when you lose it, someone can call you. Hmmmm. - anna sauce
Brilliant! :D - Carmen wBabby
I wouldn't ever think to go through pics, but if I found a lost cam (or phone or whatever) with an address clearly visible on it, I'd pop it in the mail, or call/email someone, no problem. Same holds true for some lost and found places. They might call you if there's easy contact info, but I don't see them taking the time to flip through photos to figure out how. Maybe do both? - Lix
Creative! - Tak Takkk
lol - echostreamer
So good! - Micah
That's a great idea ! i'm just sad you didn't show it before i left my camera somewhere ... T_T - Duff
that's genius. now all I need is the camera - JSLeFanu
Very Good! - John D Reasor
I was putting a README.txt file on my USB sticks with contact info if it got lost. This is way better! Now take this board with your contact info.... smile, no! put a sad face.... and you're done! - Nenad Nikolic
This is now far and away the most popular thing I have ever posted. Even got a FFundercats Best of the Week! - Alex Scrivener
:D - Josh Haley

"It is nice to see that Callebaut’s latest project, Hydrogenase still offers the same dynamic result, but this time, instead of addressing the food shortage issue, it aims to create a self-sufficient organic airship. This conceptual transport system would be comprised of airships that produce biofuel from seaweed. The project draws its inspiration from nature, as well as from the qualities of its materials and its self-manufacturing processes." - Mark H from Bookmarklet

I think that is awesome! Gorgeous windows and high ceilings.... So cool. I would definitely consider doing something like that if the opportunity had presented itself. - Lindsay
I like that they've kept the features that made the building in the first place. I've seen a church conversion (and some barn conversions too) where - once you step through the front door - it just seems like a standard house. What is the point? - Mark H

"Yet it does seem to be moving – and fast: its apparent sideways velocity is four times the speed of light. Such apparent "superluminal" motion has been seen before in high-speed jets of material squirted out by some black holes. The stuff in these jets is moving towards us at a slight angle and travelling at a fair fraction of the speed of light, and the effects of relativity produce a kind of optical illusion that makes the motion appear superluminal." - Mark H from Bookmarklet

DeCordova Museum Announces  Million Hamilton James Sculpture Park Acquisition Fund | Art Knowledge News
"LINCOLN, MA.- Dennis Kois, Executive Director of the DeCordova Sculpture Park + Museum, announced the creation of the Hamilton James Sculpture Park Acquisition Fund with a gift of one million dollars. Given by Tony James in honor of his late father Hamilton R. James, the grant consists of a one million dollar gift and a potential future gift of five hundred thousand dollars upon completion of a challenge for the acquisition or commission of seminal major works for DeCordova’s Sculpture Park. This gift, the largest ever given specifically for the Park, recognizes the service and philanthropy of Hamilton R. James, a long-time supporter and former Trustee to the Museum. His widow, Waleska James, continues to be involved as a Museum Guide and member of DeCordova’s Education Committee. "DeCordova has been important to our family and to the Lincoln community where we all lived, for many years" said Tony James. “I am very glad to be able to continue my father's legacy in helping to take DeCordova to a new level behind the strong new leadership of Dennis Kois."" - Kimber Scott from Bookmarklet

A sign you have a crazy neighbor: he takes a lawnmower deck, some pipe, chains and welding supplies to make a hedge trimmer you can pull behind your riding lawn mower. Yes, that's right. My next door neighbor has made a trailer with a real gas lawn mower deck attached on the side so that he can trim his bushes in the most lazy way possible.

I will try to catch a photo of him actually using this ASAP. - Ben Hanten
If you zoom in, you'll notice there is not even a cage to protect his head from debris or flying lawn mower blades. - Ben Hanten

Wow. - joey

Oh it would make a great zombie killer, if you were prepared to mow down zombies at 4mph. - Ben Hanten
It just seems like your zombies killed per hour (zkph) would be too low with this model. - Ben Hanten
I think there was a Darwin Award winner with something similar a few years ago, but maybe using rope. Either way, spectacular! - Dave Roth
Maybe I will see if I can hire him to do my bushes, too. I'm just interested to learn more; are there drawings? Is this a prototype? Is he freaked out of his mind that a motor is spinning sharp blades behind his head? Also I would like to see him fill this up with gas. And start it. - Ben Hanten
My other neighbor told me this existed and I didn't believe it. I had to snap the picture tonight when I saw it. - Ben Hanten
That's ingenuity for you. Not very safe though. I can imagine hearing "kids get inside, the neighbor is mowing his lawn!" - David C. Cooper
What if you're turned too quickly? Can you imagine that top-heavy trailer tipping over? Holy crap.... - Ben Hanten
that's awesome - SteVe C
