To all you geeks out there! There's a design competition done through the Guggenheim Musuem and Google Sketch Up to create a shelter in a specific location for sleeping and working. Apparently it's Frank Lloyd Wright's 142nd birthday today. The entries are due 8/24 in case you're interested! Here's the links to the competition and more information:

I tried using Google Sketch Up about two years ago but for some reason I couldn't get it working. I sure hope after my SolidWorks class I'd have better luck with it, but you never know...
The winner of the design gets airfare/accommodation to NYC, so that's enough to get me to participate!
