Chippewa Lake, a now abandoned theme park in Ohio, was once a booming park full of ride enthusiasts and families on vacation. Now it is a rundown, dilapidated and overgrown patch of woods.

Finally! Someone has made some progress in innovation of wine labels. This one allows for a peel away portion to help you remember the wine later on. I know that a lot of people carefully peel away wine labels, or do it "Catch me if you can" style, but now you won’t need to. Neat […]

Richard Crowley, whom you may know as the Flickr guy behind the Flickr Uploader or perhaps from my Avalonstar miniPrix Kart racing video when I was in California last year for Wordcamp, has created a neat Fuse filesystem for Pownce.
