Watch That Tiny $74 1.5GHz Android-Powered Thumb-Puter In Action Imagine waking up in a hotel room, and instead of getting a view of a bustling city, or beach, or maybe a parking lot, you are greeted by underwater wildlife 61m below the surface. And while it sounds like something out of a early 20th-century sci-fi novel, one group is trying to make this a reality in Dubai.
We knew Dubai was growing uncontrollably, but this video demonstrates how absolutely crazy this growth has been. It covers 11 years, from 2000 to 2011. These sheiks and their real estate developers are completely nuts.
Our friend Gerald Donovan set his camera in front of what the inhabitants of Dubai call “The Centre of Now”. After watching this video, I completely understand why they call it that way.
When I saw the Burj Khalifa in real life I was truly stunned. Indeed, the tallest skyscraper in the world defies belief. Today I learned something that also defies belief: all the poop produced there has to be removed by trucks.
Looking at these photos, you might think you’re looking at stills that inspired “Metropolis.” These shots, taken by photographer Martin Becka in 2009, were all taken on 19th century equipment. Such a beautifully alien look at what’s already so awesome. [Martin Becka, Moco Loco]
