The Blue Hole of Belize

The Today Show had our four heroes at The Ends of The Earth today. Matt was at The Blue Hole of Belize-a very cool place to dive first brought to most people’s attention by Jacques Cousteau. Matt dived into The Blue Hole and the video looked pretty amazing. I have never been diving and don’t even know how to swim, but places like The Blue Hole of Belize make me want to learn.

Reborn Babies take the doll idea to the next logical level and make babies that look hyper real.…

Photofiddle-Your Photos on Stretched Canvas

NBC’s The Today Show featured PhotoFiddle, a company that turns your photos into stretched canvas, wall-mounted pieces of art. The The Today Show recommended the stretched canvas photo product in an exclusive home design segment. The Photofiddle idea is to take your family photos and transform them into photos on stretched canvas or art prints-anyone familiar with Photoshop will recognize the watercolor or oil painting effects. Photofiddle makes a canvas photo and takes the idea to the next level. You can buy stretched canvas photos that you have fiddled with yourself. Canvas photo printing is a much more artistic way…
