Glasscrete is a mixture of recycled glass of many colors, bound in a non toxic cementious matrix. It's creation is a detailed process of casting, curing, shaping and hand polishing to a glistening stonelike surface. This process allows us to create any shape, any color, any thickness. There is no limit to the design possibilities. Glasscrete has a broad range of appearances, from a subdued natural stone look, to a festive mixture of brilliant reflective colored glass. Some options are colored bands of inlaid glass, veins of different colors, inlaid stones or special treasures. This beautiful, functional art can be the highlight of any room. Glasscrete is 80-85% recycled glass from local ...

Software has become easier to customize in the past decade, but hardware, for the most part, remains closed: Apple's battle to keep people from hacking the iPhone is a case in point. Although most consumer electronics are collections of smaller devices--cell phones typically include cameras and voice recorders, for example--users can't swap out the devices or modify the way they work. Bug Labs , a startup based in New York City, is hoping to change that with its new device, the Bug, scheduled to start shipping late this year. The Bug would allow users to design their own electronics and customize them however they want. CEO Peter Semmelhack explains that the foundation of the device is the Bugbase, a minicomputer running Linux that users can program. It has ports for up to four device modules, which snap in and out of place. Among the first modules the company expects to offer will be a GPS system, a camera, a motion sensor, and an LCD screen. But it also plans to offer new modules...
