In a word, Awesome... (sorry, couldn't resist) Board of AwesomenessMembers of the Chaotic Moon team are like little kids—you tell us we can’t do something, we’re sure going to go out and do it.

The second post of our run up to the v1 release Inspirational week shows how the Kinect is inspiring scientists and students alike... Scientists Hack Kinect to Study Glaciers and AsteroidsSAN FRANCISCO — Last summer, Ken Mankoff shimmied through zero-degree water and mud into a small cavern…

Today's Mobile Monday post isn't one project, but three. Yep, it's a three for one day... We've all seen QR codes around, they are appearing on sites, in print, on TV and even tattoos. Four months ago we covered one way to consume them in a Windows Phone 7.1(5) app, Window Phone 7.5, ZXing and QR…
