I think it's funny how angry Android people get whenever Apple does something. It's all so silly. iOS7 looks gorgeous. Android will continue to evolve and improve as well. Everybody wins.

HEY! I own one of those Lepai TA2020 amps. It's tiny, but sonically, it's superb, and it easily manages to power my 100 watt speakers. God, it sounds so good. I bought mine from an ebayer in China years ago before it showed up on Amazon. If you pair that amp up with a SLIGHTLY higher power power-supply, it really rocks. I found a 13.5V/2.66A power supply for mine from a place called Advanced Power Solutions (online). LOVE my little Lepai!

Ew. Garden under the stairs? Muddy shoes dropping mud on vegetables? No.

I love these smaller entries. This one in particular really looks like a home. Well done!

That might be the ugliest thing I've ever seen.

This. Is. Marvelous! I love seeing small spaces turned into unique homes. Cheers to both of you!

While this entry isn't even close to being my style, I LOVE IT because it's inspiring and full of ideas. It makes me kind of sad how the Small Cool contest has turned into the big ginormous contest through the years with million dollar entries. But here, we have a real honestly small space, creatively utilized and turned into a home. I love it. Thumbs way up!

Never mind. It's called Clock Saver, and it doesn't work with Mountain Lion. Bummer.

There are five choices.
Big city - medium size city - small town - country - suburbs.

I can do any of the first three. Life in the country, as in, outside of a town... well, that's not for me. And the suburbs? NO WAY.

Source for the clock screensaver? That's great! I love that the people who live here are in a few of the photos. I always enjoy seeing whose space it is.

Wow, those tables are really bad. The white one has potential, but then they built a tablet slot into it, thereby taking something really functional and making it less so. Sheesh. World Market makes a bunch of C-Tables, like this. A table like that plus a cheap tablet stand like this one by Belkin makes a billion times more sense. That's what I have, and I love it (though the C-Table I found has a nice glass top. I use it as a coffee table too. Multi-purpose makes so much more sense than single-purpose).

What the heck is I Saloni and why do those posts have zero content other than an image and maybe one line of text?

All I can say is one word. Envy. Such a marvelous location and I love what you've done with it. Envy :)

I love that you showed a photo of the space at work. On first glance, I saw the last pic (the photographer shot) and thought "You only get to post 5 photos. Why waste one on THIS?" ...and then I realized how much it made perfect sense. It shows the space to be more that just a place to relax. Marvelous job!

That desk is ridiculously cool and so unique. Your space really shows a sense of style. Well done!

Absolutely love it - especially in a door that is only occasionally opened, or a door whose edge is mostly out of view. A bathroom door, especially. Or a pantry. What a neat little bit of unexpected color.

The way to get the most money when selling your iPad is to sell it on craigslist in the days before Apple holds its media event to officially announce a new model. I went without an iPad for 16 days, but I got more for my used iPad 2 than the identical iPad 2 sells for today, which means it didn't cost me much at all to upgrade to the new iPad.
