Music Go Music
Fantastic LA band "Music Go Music" is playing its first public show tonight at The Bordello Bar (downtown). Minimal details here.
Google Street Traffic
This will only be helpful for those that live in major cities, but Google Maps now shows traffic levels for major "side streets" (instead of just freeways/highways). Now I'll be able to confirm that it will take me 2 hours to drive 5 miles. Awesome.

Bacon Lip Balm

Paper Totems
Dolly Oblong's awesome Paper Totems
The Chefstack
Meet the Chefstack, an automated pancake-making masterpiece. Naturally, the Chefstack is also on twitter.
