Urban Tech Links...

Urban Tech Links is about what makes (or allows) some cities to be BIG or remain small, or somewhere in between. Perhaps almost every city or town will have its peculiarities, myths or urban_legends & even some synchronicity.

UTL ranges from referencing old & new tech involving urban things, statistics & legends & sci-fi stories that are connected to the fusion of buildings, inventions & technology in general. An integral part of this blog network is exploring architecture & symbolism , coincidence  and synchronicity. Some of the coolest sites are, http://ancientx.com , www.history.com/shows/ancient-aliens , www.cyberpunkreview.com , www.technovelgy.com , www.world-mysteries.com , www.wired.com , http://io9.com
