Longboard LED's
A friend and I were discussing ENDS101 last night. He was telling me about his project (for another professor) that he did. It involved putting a laser on the front of a longboard so that the person riding the board could see where he was going. It incited an interesting thought in my head - what if LED lights were attached to the bottom of the board, just as some choose to do to their cars for mere cosmetic purposes? The primary function would be cosmetic, of course, but it would also allow for increased illumination when riding at night.

My Apologies
Sorry it's been so long since I've posted, I've been busy working on assignments for class, including ENDS101. My latest project included four different business models, involving a company that rents you solar panels, a sort of mail-order laundry system, a business providing complete homes to people, and an online newspaper suited to one's personal needs.

Lucky Drunks
Sorry I haven't been posting recently! I was extremely ill two weeks ago, then spring break was hectic. An idea a friend and I came up with over spring break involves the Lucky Drunk theory. One idea a friend and I came up with after discussing the "lucky drunk" theory is having the car somehow sedate a person just before he or she gets into a bad accident. Obviously this has a lot of problems involved, for example if the car's sensors malfunction and the driver is randomly sedated. Still, it's an interesting concept.

Soft Innovations
I've been doing a lot of brain storming for my 12 Soft Innovations lately. I've noticed that the majority of my ideas are concerned with weather and climate. It's an interesting study of the inside of my head, if anything.
