Boingboing isn't always the fastest site to pick stuff up. wink

The large readership that it has should result in a nice traffic spice for fractalforums.

It was on Neatorama a little earlier: http://www.neatorama.com/2012/09/24/Fractal-Utensils/?load_comments=1

  I totally spaced on posting it here though...

Yeah, I had seen both before already... It's heading to a happy life of being a meme, I'm pretty sure.

Does anyone else think it is actually quite a good idea??

I bet the best shape for grabbing and cutting is a fractal shape, kind of like a croc's mouth shape-

The fork would need bigger gaps between the larger branches, then it might be good at prodding big stuff, and also picking up small stuff with the little prongs.

For the spoon, something like this so you can choose how much liquid to measure by choosing which basin to fill-

but more concave and oval

  Neatorama did- it's underneath the image.  Hover over the word "link"- it's this:

http://www.fractalforums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=11458

  We could probably get a posting on Neatorama once Kali get's his Fragmentarium stuff done, or maybe if another new formula pops up.

Things like this work exponential, usually.
While that means an extremely steep explosion eventually, it also implies a really slow start wink
This image is likely going to become a meme.

   Is it going to become a meme, with a meme about it becoming a meme, with a meme about the meme about it becoming a meme, with a meme about the meme about the meme about it becoming a meme?

  Are fractals meta?
