Twitter's new log in screen shows a strong resemblance to Facebook's.  The layout is virtually the same, a diagram of the world appears in both, the slogans sound similar and are positioned in the same place, the language links are both at the bottom, etc.  Twitter has even changed its blue to look more like Facebook's. Coincidence or a case of imitation being the best form of flattery?

Love the minimalist qualities of the iPod Shuffle 4th Generation.  Just the basics: volume up, volume down, forward, back, play/stop, pause.  Simple battery indicator: green full, yellow OK, red low.  400 songs in a one square inch dial with a clip.  Brilliant.

I saw this in the garage of an old house in Miami. Jar caps are nailed to the ceiling or wood frame, and jars carrying nuts and bolts and other small pieces can then be twisted into the cap. Very clever and a great way to recycle used glass jars.
