Concept Art Dictionary Gives A Word’s First Google Image Result Instead Of A Definition
Posted On 04 Jul 2012 By Rip Empson. Under: Uncategorized.
Here's something that you'll either want to buy immediately -- or that will just strike you as a giant waste of paper. There's no in between. Though I will venture a guess that Sergey Brin was going to get to this after he finishes with his Google Spectacles. From Crap Is Good, we've learned that two London artist/designers, Ben West and Felix Heyes, have created a visual dictionary, courtesy of Google.
In other words, the artists took an average dictionary and replaced every single word (that's 21K words for those of you counting along at home) with the first Google Image result for that particular word. Crazy? Maybe. Slightly brilliant? Call it maybe. The result is a 1,240-page pic-tionary comprised of JPEGs and PNGs that will shock, confuse, and amaze.No Comments

Munchery Is Trying to Reinvent The Personal Chef, And Early Signs Are Promising
Posted On 04 Jul 2012 By Brenden Mulligan. Under: Uncategorized.
There are plenty of people who can make great home cooked meals (ex: homemakers) and plenty of people who would probably pay a reasonable price for someone to cook for them (ex: young professionals / bachelors). There's an opportunity somewhere in there.
Munchery is one of the latest startups to go after it. The company's tagline is "Reinventing the Personal Chef: Gourmet Delivered to Everyone". It's a pretty simple concept: professional chefs make a certain number of meals that are sold daily through the Munchery site. The meals are delivered to your door and all you need to do is heat them up. Yum.
I've known about the service for months, but always forget to use it. Recently, however, I've had constant reminders because they just launched an iPhone app that sends a daily push notification about what's available that night.No Comments
