SO&SO is a lovely new short-form journal for the wandering interneteer. The current, second edition tries to resolve the Atheist / Agnostic distinction. Interesting.

Happy Halloween
Here’s the current Halloween status at case Eisenberg. Can I just say what a good sport G is? Last year double rainbows, this year Superhero-family! He deserves a medal!
Happy Halloween everyone!
Roundtable
I am seriously loving the concept of Roundtable. Read in on smart folks having conversations on topics like Future of Blogging, Entrepreneurship and Startup Funding. Oh, you can apply to become a member and participate if you think you can add value to the conversation.
Not sure who’s behind Roundtable but I am liking the concept.

To Do Lists
These unusual To Do Lists are quite something. Definitely makes a neat-freak-list-maker like me look.
Haters Gonna Hate
The Haters Gonna Hate Meme, fairly known in the internet world, is now also available as a Tattly. (We really tried the animated version, still working on it. We promise)
He never fails to make me smile. Hat tip to the Ohio based designers Jen Adrion and Omar Noory.
Unconsumption
Rob Walker’s The Unconsumption project which focuses on mindful consumption and creative reuse — has embarked on a really cool side project that they’re calling The Uncollection.
Clifton Burt designed the Unconsumption logo, and they put it under a Creative Commons license that allows others to use it. The Uncollection so far is here.
Read more about the thinking behind the Uncollection in this interview with Craft, and this item on FastCompany.com, and of course the links at the top of this page.
Submit pix of your own creations to their Facebook page.
(I think this would make for an excellent Tattly…)
OH WOW. OH WOW. OH WOW.
Do yourself a favor and read this incredibly moving Eulogy for Steve Jobs by his sister Mona Simpson.

♥ / Emera Camera Bags
A big thank you to *emera for sponsoring this week’s RSS feed!
Women love their *emera camera bags because they’re tough, yet chic, right down to their little silver feet. These stylish bags hold and protect expensive equipment – DSLR, several lenses, iPad, cords and power supply gear, plus magazines, wallet, and a few more goodies. Oh, and they are customizable. (as shown in this video)
*emera camera bags are available in tote and messenger styles.
(Interested in sponsoring a week of my RSS feed, learn more here.)
Shoebox
Shoebox, the iPhone App, makes it easy to scan old paper photos and share them with family and friends. It helps you bring albums, scrapbooks, and photo-filled “shoeboxes” out of the closet and into an online, shareable space where they can be organized and shared with family and friends.
Shoebox’s edge detection and perspective correction make sure that the paper photographs you scan turn out beautifully. After scanning, you can quickly crop, straighten, rotate your photo, as well as record the stories behind the photographs by adding captions, dates, and tags.
The quality of camera phones has increased so much that your handy iPhone is now as good as the clunky piece of hardware you have next to your computer, and with none of the wires or drivers. The new iPhone 4S offers a 8 megapixel camera that takes images at 2448×3264 resolution. Using Shoebox to scan a typical 4″x6″ photo produces a DPI of 550 – the same high quality recommended by scanning experts like ScanCafe.
Your photos are saved on your iPhone and on 1000memories where they can be shared for free with friends and family. You can also share via Facebook and Twitter. All photos on 1000memories are backed up and preserved forever through our partnership with the Internet Archive.
Download the Shoebox App. It’s free.

This Class Guidelines at my daughter’s kindergarten class made me smile. It not only applies to 5 year olds. (And no, I don’t know what “Magic Six” is, will have to ask my daughter tonight)
Remote Control Spaceman
Sure, the world doesn’t need a Remote Control Spaceman but just think of the fun that can be had with this.

Wood Voice Recorder
This voice recorder made me smile! I would have *loved* one of these as a kid. Hold down the red button to record, press the black button to play back, and dial the knob to adjust the speed/pitch for fun and frivolity. Record time is roughly 30 seconds. Totally wishlisted!
Jim Denevan on The Anthropologist
In March of 2010, Jim Denevan and his crew created a large scale artwork on the frozen surface of Lake Baikal, Siberia. The spiral of circles, along a fibonacci curve, grow from an origin of 18″ to several miles in diameter.
The project is currently featured on The Anthropologist and is the subject of an upcoming documentary directed by Meredith Danluck.
The Anthropologist is an online space that supports the work of inspiring individuals, brought to you by the people behind Anthropologie. As a company of artists, Anthropologie celebrates artmakers and their work, but also illuminates the complicated, messy and exhilarating process of creation.
