CONELRAD: Atomic Secrets | Atomic Tattoo
A massive blood-typing and tattooing project that was approved for Chicago on July 31, 1950, apparently never got off the ground.

Square, the iPhone Credit Card Machine, Goes Mainstream
Alexis Madrigal:
I asked Square to make me a map of their transactions to see where they had users. The map you see shows one hour of transaction volume on a Friday afternoon. The size of the bubble represents the volume of the transactions while the different colors indicate the types of users that Square has….
Just about every major city and plenty of smaller places have someone using the device. I was particularly to see that the whole southeast is blanketed with Square users.
