do you sometimes attempt to feel slightly better about yourself by rejoicing in the embarrassment and/or failures of others? well, you are not alone. serving up slices of fail pie are these three photo blogs that will darken or brighten your day: the fail blog, shipment of fail, and doing it wrong. failing never felt so good.

a very amazing lecture and demo video from TED talks by software architect blaise aguera y arcas showing the incredible new photo technology called photosynth. from the what is photosynth page on the microsoft live labs website, photosynth “takes a large collection of photos of a place or an object, analyzes them for similarities, and displays them in a reconstructed three-dimensional space.” please watch the video (also on the clip-a-day website) to see what that entails - it’s pretty incredible.
posted up on flickr are photos from the 2007 maker faire that took place this weekend. wow - there was soo much to see! i barely scratched the surface of looking at all the cool stuff. luckily, scott beale over at laughing squid took a gigantic amount of photos at the maker faire too (link to laughing squid’s flickr set)! yes, i will definitely go next year and this time participate in the rad-ness!!
