Cool Things People Do

In 2009 I stopped watching TV news because I felt that it gave an overly negative perspective on reality. This year, I want to focus instead on positive events, changes and developments rather than get distracted by constant crime stories (which, let's face it - will NEVER END, and are frankly, quite boring).

So, I have started this blog to celebrate the positive and progressive things that people are doing right now. Cool things can involve: experiments, hobbies, films, science, charity, products, marketing, new policies, community initiatives, interior design, pranks and any other impressive things that catch my eye.

People build “Rube Goldberg” Machines in Japan (via lycos12)

Anyone who is a fan of people doing cool things, should know about Rube Goldberg.

Reuben Goldberg (July 4, 1883 – December 7, 1970) was an American cartoonist, sculptor, author, engineer and inventor. Goldberg is best known for a series of popular cartoons he created depicting complex devices that perform simple tasks in indirect, convoluted ways – now known as Rube Goldberg machines.” - Wikipedia.
