My first inspiration this week is from a video game called Team Fortress 2. This game started as part of the orange box for xbox 4 years ago. Since then it has developed into one of, if not the most community driven games ever. At first they started updating the game and keeping it very hush hush until the release, but recently have been implementing community made aspects into the actual game. Even more those who's submissions make it into the game get paid for when that is purchased for use in the game. Still more impressive is that the game is completely free. You have the option of purchasing things through the game with real money to quicken your advancement, but there is absolutely nothing that is only accessible through purchasing. The most impressive part though is just this past week the game announced an update where, through the game you can make, tweak and submit things for in game play, all for free, and if they get chosen to be in game, they pay you.
My second inspiration this week is the throwable panorama camera ball.
