Ian's (almost) daily recap of what spikes my interest

I spend a considerable amount of time online since I work in front of a computer. This blog is supposed to basically summarize what i think is interesting. Do with it what you'd like. Ian

Brought to you by the folks of the Palm in Dubai, an island community arranged like the continents of the world just off the coast of Dubai.  My initial reaction was to laugh until I saw this video that indicates a bit more effort was put into this.  Too bad Dubai is so far away from anything I want to visit.  Oh, and too bad the price tag is around $6.5mm just for the island.  I wonder what the condo costs are for the private security service and the water taxi!?
