Intro

Tumblr Blog Statement

This blog is a collection of images of adorable, animal shaped food. You don't normally see food decorated that way. Most of the time, most foods, especially baked goods, are decorated abstractly or are representational of organic forms such as flowers and plants. Generally, common food decorations appear rather banal and generic in appearance. Foods decorated as animals, especially in a simplified or cute way is not as common as the average way of decorating foods. These types of animal food forms are not normally seen in the baked goods section at a Jewel, Dominick or even at gourmet cupcake bakeries such as Sprinkles, More and Crumbs.
Animal shaped food requires a different type of taste level. Animal shaped sweets may not look quite as sophisticated as the sweets seen in gourmet bakeries or other food restaurants, but they do appeal to those enjoy animals and cute things in general. Cute food, like the ones on my blog inspire other people and generally makes them happy, at least that is the reaction I get whenever I stumble upon something completely adorable.

In essence, animal shaped food is awesome and requires little to no artistic to make. I hope this blog inspires others to appreciate this type of food aesthetic or encourages them to try to produce their own adorable, delectable noms.

After the Flood Response

After The Flood 
James Gleick

(B) write about how Wikipedia is both similar to, and different from, traditional print-based libraries.

Similarities: they contain a collection of various information of different subjects

differences: 

wikepedia: faster, on screen info, info is summarized

libraries: slower when it comes to searching for information, physical information rather than on screen, the information is denser than what you would find on wiki if you were to research a certain topic

Undoing Property

I didn't really understand the article that much or much of what I've read, but as far as the topic goes, I don't really have much interest in cloud or have any interest in how far this cloud technology goes.

Even though I have an iPhone, I never use iCloud. I don't know any one else who uses it so I guess there's no need for me to use it. I guess I didn't I still even don't know how cloud works or what it does exactly, and I probably won't learn it until I need it.

And now I'm confused. Was the 'cloud' technology the author was referring to related to torrenting?
