WebHome < Main < Reprap

by Neewok

Look at your computer setup and imagine that you hooked up a 3D printer. Instead of printing on bits of paper this 3D printer makes real, robust, mechanical parts. To give you an idea of how robust, think Lego bricks and you're in the right area. You could make lots of useful stuff, but interestingly you could also make most of the parts to make another 3D printer. That would be a machine that could copy itself.

RepRap is short for Replicating Rapid-prototyper. It is the practical self-copying 3D printer shown on the right - a self-replicating machine.

Shindig - Welcome To Shindig!

by holyver & 4 others (via)
What is Shindig? Shindig is a container for hosting social application consisting of four parts: * Gadget Container JavaScript: core JavaScript foundation for general gadget functionality (read more about gadget functionality). This JavaScript manages security, communication, UI layout, and feature extensions, such as the OpenSocial API. * Gadget Rendering Server: used to render the gadget XML into JavaScript and HTML for the container to expose via the container JavaScript. * OpenSocial Container JavaScript: JavaScript environment that sits on top of the Gadget Container JavaScript and provides OpenSocial specific functionality (profiles, friends, activities, datastore). * OpenSocial Data Server: an implementation of the server interface to container-specific information, including the OpenSocial REST APIs, with clear extension points so others can connect it to their own backends. Shindig is the reference implementation of OpenSocial API specifications, a standard set of Social Network APIs which includes: * Profiles * Relationships * Activities * Shared applications * Authentication * Authorization

Gallery - Where's the remotest place on Earth? - Image 5 - New Scientist

by karlcow

Unlike roads, which can evolve out of any old dirt track, railways require skilled labour and considerable investment. As a result, they are confined mainly to the richer nations of Europe, the US, Australia and Japan.

Railway networks in India, Argentina and parts of Africa give clues to their colonial heritage.

Fund a film, Share your dream

by gregg
“Des long-métrages qui ont déjà bouclé de 80 à 95% de leur financement (budget moyen des films : 2.5 - 3millions d’euros) sont proposés sur le site. L’enveloppe (150k€ à 300k€) qui reste à financer est divisée en part de 25€. L’internaute fan de cinéma peut alors acquérir une ou plusieurs parts du film et devenir ainsi “Coproducteur” du film.Il devient de plus en plus difficile pour les producteurs de boucler leur budget de manière classique (aides, préachats, Sofica..). La conséquence immédiate est que de nombreux projets de qualité sont alors abandonnés. La crise ne les aide pas! Motion Sponsor se présente donc comme une alternative facilitant la mise en production d’un film.”
