Curated Links We Love: Top Picks from FathomHQ (January 16, 2016)
What we were clicking on and talking about this week at #FathomHQ, when we're not thinking about the legendary artists we've just lost.
The people of Japan have a strong cultural connection to their environment. But a citizen-run zero-waste program with 34 categories of recyclable items? That's love on another level. – Daniel, editorial assistant
ArtCodeData and Open Access are creating a world metro map made up of 214 public transit systems from around the world. I love the idea of being able to take the 4/5 from Fulton Street in NYC and end up at Shibuya station in Tokyo. Possibilities abound! – Becky, assistant editor
When Becky gets to Tokyo from Fulton Street, she can sample the culinary skills of ramen-making robots who make soup in 90 seconds. Watch the video below. – Pavia, founder
Russia's answer to Silicon Valley is located in the middle of the Siberian taiga. Take a look inside Akadempark. – Daniel
I'm totally taken by this documentary following a local Nepalese hero who used to hike two days to check his emails and has since created his own wireless network for more than 6,000 people in Nepal's Annapurna region. – Becky
