Ponoko!

Ponoko is great new initiative and excellent news for Product Designers I heard about this site from the Unitec Hothouse Project leader Dr Cris De Groot. "The Ponoko website is like having your own personal workshop and factory ... and online showroom to sell your designs...."

Yummy

Colour lovers. Sweet sweet goodness

Business interests?

A quirky and really useful business site Bnet. I have realised that my posts are extremely short sorry about this. I aim to start providing more information on everything I post, but I don't have much time at the moment. I would rather share resources with people than not. I am glad you all understand me. It is heart warming.

Portal of all portals

How about a portal full of portals? Check out Enure >> feeds

Free stuff

I'm not sure whether I am excited or disgusted by this website, but surely someone will appreciate some free resources. Sketchy.
