Weekly Augmented Reality Linkfest

Weekly Augmented Reality Linkfest

Took a break last week (missed me? you should follow me on Twitter), back today with many AR links:

• Happy Mother's Day! It can be even happier if you get your Mom an AR cake (via DMFO)
• Tish Shute and Ori Inbar hold an interview with Bruce Sterling - it doesn't make sense to write fiction about augmented reality nowadays as AR is not fictional topic anymore.
• As part of the ARE2011 media blitz, Sterling was also interviewed, together with Vernor Vinge on ReadWriteWeb about augmented reality in the workplace.
• Plush toys on sale at a virtual store, existing only in the augmented world of Layar.
• AR games in real life, a photoshop contest at Kotaku. AR remake of 'They Live' won first place.
• From now on Wikitude will come preloaded on millions of BlackBerry devices
• The augmented version of the lowly doorbell is a nice use of Junaio
• Guy has an AR marker tattoo done, going to regret it when AR goes completely marker less.

This week's video is just cute rendition of a possible augmented future, featuring Super Mario Bros villains in real life (via Neatorama):

Have a splendid week!
