Wow!! 100 days…I don’t think I’ve ever stuck with anything that many days in a row. Outside of a few days of not knowing what to get/being stuck, it has been such a fun adventure. I love the internet and how easy it makes it to find things that look like they might be fun to try, do or have. As of today I have received, and spent, $5,050,000.00!!!
Lately I have been doing lots of research for a new camera (which is partly why I’m not getting around to this post until the evening); I thought I wanted the Canon SX1 IS but after reading some of the reviews I changed my mind, now I just had to find something that would meet my needs AND had some good/great reviews. I was thisclose to getting the Fuji S100fs, but I couldn’t find any stores that carried it to give it a try. This morning I stumbled upon a camera review site that recommended the Sony DSC-HX1; I then found out that Best Buy sold it and I got sucked up reading the reviews there. One of the things that nailed this model for me was the photos taken from an indoor concert and some concert videos that were shot (HD). There are some other features that made me choose this camera, but that’s not what this blog is for – I might do a review about it and post some pictures on my other blog at a later date…still waiting for the battery to charge up.
While surfing around inhabitat.com again I came across the above hybrid wind/solar street lamps that are made by Urban Green Energy. I thought about how nice it would be to see these in our downtown area, then I started thinking about the Tree House Park I created earlier in the game (days 71-74 and day 89) and thought how nice it would be to use these for lights in the park. I love how they look more like sculptures than lights, and the fact they don’t need any electricity is a big plus.
Since I couldn’t find any prices I’ll just say that today’s $100,000 is for however many street lamps we can get for that amount (for both the downtown area and Tree House Park).
