There are some kids that are born to do certain things. This kid is born to play golf. Let's hope he develops some better decision making than, say, Tiger Woods.

Well, Microsoft is still trying to persuade me — and all the other people that grew up in the 90s — that they're cool in an effort to get me to use Internet Explorer. Keep trying; I'm still skeptical.

Who wants to stay in a hotel room that's in a big building when you can stay in a shipping container? It's actually kind of cool. The pop-up hotel designed by Sleeping Around, a new company from Belgium, doesn't have an address; you find your room by GPS. [Via GOOD]

One man's Christmas trash is another man's treasure. This dude took some abandoned Christmas trees and made art out of them. He calls it "Suspended Forest." [Via GOOD]

This design company gies away half its work for free and started as a way to give back. That's pretty awesome. [Via GOOD]
