I have been a long-time subscriber to “Cool Tools”:http:\/\/www.kk.org\/cooltools\/index.php,<\/a> a blog on Kevin Kelly’s site, “kk.org”:http:\/\/www.kk.org\/index.php<\/a> and highly recommend it. Basically any time he or someone else finds something they think is cool or especially useful, up it goes. I’ve discovered some great things reading Cool Tools (The “‘Allen and Mike’ camping books”:http:\/\/www.kk.org\/cooltools\/archives\/000704.php<\/a> and the “Sierra Stove”:http:\/\/www.kk.org\/cooltools\/archives\/000012.php<\/a> being two that have led to very wise purchases) but I didn’t realize there was more greatness to be had.
\nOn the left side of the Cool Tools page there is a navigation menu of all the other things found at kk.org and one day for some reason I was actually on the site (instead of just reading the RSS feed) and I looked at all of them. The other blog I found was “Street Use”:http:\/\/www.kk.org\/streetuse\/index.php<\/a> and it has been on my daily read ever since. This blog explores how people adapt objects and technology to suit their particular needs. For example, “this article”:http:\/\/www.kk.org\/streetuse\/archives\/2007\/01\/phone_charging_booths_in_ugand.php<\/a> is about improvised phone charging booths in Uganda.
