The Maeklong Market Train:

It’s absolutely impressive to see this building at 828 meters (160 stories) tall. It recently opened on Jan 6, 2010 with an equally impressive opening ceremony (see the videos at the bottom)

The building also managed to break a number of records:

• Tallest building in the world
• Tallest free-standing structure in the world
• Highest number of stories in the world
• Highest occupied floor in the world
• Highest outdoor observation deck in the world
• Elevator with the longest travel distance in the world
• Tallest service elevator in the world

Kudos to the Portland-based design studio for adding such beautiful and classic touches to their modern -boned space. Click on the image for more images c/o Abduzeedo

So for the avid followers who may have noticed a difference in the posts of late, I’ve cross-linked and syndicated the posts from the InBloom Shop Software website into the SWL blog.  At the very least, this helps the many readers that bounce between the two blogs and sites.  This was wonderfully easy to set up using the FeedWordPress plugin.  This simply sets up some rules to download posts from the InBloom blog automagically onto this one.

There’s much more to come in the new year with InBloom, Secret Weapon Labs, this blog and this website, so stay tuned!

If you want to know the latest and greatest new with InBloom, you can subscribe by RSS to the News section of the website or you follow us on Twitter.

For example, we’ll open Account #1000.

Then, since we want to return items [...]
