Coolest thing you’ll see today: A guy managed to play a reel-to-reel tape through his iPod Touch using a slightly-modified Square credit card reader, which seems obvious if you think about it, but not so much at first. Clever work, bro. (via Hacker News)

Awesome idea by STFUConservatives to take submissions from folks who voted today. Great work, STFU.
Looking to fill your home with fine art without breaking the bank? While many have had success finding home decor with services like Paddle8 or Artsy, Boston-based start-up TurningArt hopes to revolutionize the art industry. The new company plans to use a $10 subscription model, not unlike Netflix, to allow customers to rent pieces of art. Customers may choose from a range of artists, and receive their chosen work(s) framed and ready to hang. Displaying pieces for long periods of time will net you credits, which can then be redeemed for discounts on future purchases, and users have the freedom to change the images displayed in their homes as often as they’d like. So, would you pay $10 for the ability to change the feel of your home as you please? (Photo via TurningArt) source
Thanks to our friends at The Daily Dot for mailing us a print copy of their ceremonial newspaper ”first issue”. We got this via our apparently-growing Klout, BTW. Cool idea to launch your product, dudes. (Check out our previous coverage of them over here.)
