Youblob is now running on Varnish.

We thought it would be nice to show off some numbers,  where our visitors come from, and what the webz has on us. After all, this is an open community.

We have launched Inflectra SpiraTeam in to beta, and to help us in finalizing our small tweaks to this awesome tool, we need your help.Head over to http://www.youblob.com/project/ and register for an account.
Beta testers will be notified when the account is activated.

The purpose of this guide is to give you the basics of engineering sketching and drawing.

We will treat "sketching" and "drawing" as one. "Sketching" generally means freehand drawing. "Drawing" usually means using drawing instruments, from compasses to computers to bring precision to the drawings.

The project Mechapolypse is about a dress that lights up and changes shape depending on the level of brain concentration.
Integrated with an Arduino board, fibre optics and a few other items.

Domino’s Pizza hired a creative agency called T + Biscuits to test the feasibility of octocopter drones that deliver a hot, delicious pizza to your doorstep.

A group of students from Charles W. Davidson College of Engineering at San Jose State University has designed an innovative Spherical Drive System.The system is applicable to two wheelers. Made of carbon fiber/fiberglass with coating of tough industrial rubber for excellent traction and force distribution,the drive system is excellent for any terrain or weather.

Youblob supports UDOO on their Kickstarter project. As we think their product is quite genious, and a really compatible product for the DIY community.
 

American Graphite Technologies, in collaboration with the National Academy of Science of Ukraine; National Science Centre; Kharkiv Institute of Physics and Technology ("KIPT"), Kharkov, Ukraine, will research the properties of graphene contained matter as working material for 3D printing.

A brand new method of additive manufacturing. This patent-pending method allows for creating 3D objects on any given working surface independently of its inclination and smoothness, and without a need of additional support structures.

The ISS Commander is returning

Ric Kaner set out to find a new way to make graphene, the thinnest and strongest material on earth. What he found was a new way to power the world.

Instructables user aaronthomen posted a couple of videos about his ingenious robotic hand and a controller he designed and built for less than $200.  The first video shows the hand in action and the  second one explains how he made it.

How to turn milk into a hard plastic nearly as strong as stone! All we need for this simple kitchen science experiment is milk, vinegar and a strainer. You can make all kinds of shapes and designs using this "plastic-like" material

Here are all 11 "Imagining" videos published. You can click on the buttons along the top to jump to any particular dimension whenever you want, or if you've got an hour and forty-four minutes to spare watch the whole thing!

This Kilobot Robot Swarm was being shown on the Sheffield University stand at the Gadget Show Live 2013. They were being used to demonstrate possible swarm behaviours.

Charles Lohr a 24 year old Computer Science student at UMBC. Who grew up in Howard County, Maryland. Gives us a tutorial on making PCB in glass.
As glass is reusable, and don't harm the environment in the making, this is something that should really be considered for future productions. It also adds extra properties with it.

OpenWorm is an open source project dedicated to creating a virtual C. elegans nematode (a worm) in a computer.

Quadruped walks of four legs, rolls on four treads

Customizing the Pebble Watch code package, so that it becomes a home automation controller.

With submillimeter-scale anatomy and two wafer-thin wings that flap at 120 times per second, robotic insects, or RoboBees, achieve vertical takeoff, hovering, and steering. The tiny robots flap their wings using piezoelectric actuators -- strips of ceramic that expand and contract when an electric field is applied. Thin hinges of plastic embedded within a carbon fiber body frame serve as joints.

Grover is the newest scientific rover from NASA. On it's way to Greenland for trial runs this month. A research station sitting on a two-mile thick sheet of ice. The Goddard Remotely Operated Vehicle for Exploration and Research, or GROVER, carries ground-penetrating radar capable of measuring snow accumulation over time.

What if the soccer ball itself could be a judge on the field? Integrating GPS technology and rules. Leaving the referees to handle foul play, instead of keeping their eyes on the ball half the time.

A new bioprinter developed at a hackerspace can print living cells for less than the cost of an iPod touch.
This DIY Bioprinter can do fun stuff like print secret messages in E. coli that can only be read under UV lights.

The Mantis Hexapod - 2.2 litre turbo diesel powered, 5 meter diameter 1900kg walking machine.

We are now running our own servers!
So in the very short future, your browsing will be leeching information from a cold tool shed in Norway, on 2 x HP ProLiant DL380 G5.

Using a combination of theory and experiment, researchers have developed a new approach for understanding and predicting how small legged robots – and potentially also animals – move on and interact with complex granular materials such as sand.

Quantum computers promise to perform certain types of operations much more quickly than conventional digital computers. But many challenges must be addressed before these ultra-fast machines become available, among them, the loss of order in the systems -- a problem known as quantum decoherence -- which worsens as the number of bits in a quantum computer increases.
