DailyDirt: There's Plenty Of Room At The Bottom...

from the urls-we-dig-up dept

Kids of all ages are entertained by toys that are just smaller versions of everyday items -- eg. toy cars, model trains, tiny dollhouses, etc. Most kids outgrow this fascination with small things when they get bigger, but some folks don't. Plenty of adults work on building small, intricate designs... that can be artwork or technology. Here are just a few examples of people using their imaginations to create almost incredibly tiny worlds that everyone should be able to appreciate.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team
