October 18 Make calls online using your own phoneThis is an amazing site that lets you use your own phone to call someone else anywhere in the world (basically). There is a free 5 minute demo that I've messed around with that is pretty cool.
Only downside is that there is about a 1 second delay between users but that is overlooked by the quality and the cost.
Check it out!
Thanks to Andrea for firing me this my way (K) May 16 Blow Your MindAndrea sent me this link today.
It uses shockwave to present images in no other way I've ever seen. "Information" is my favourite (first link on that page) February 09 Crazy Things That People InventAnd by crazy I mean amazing.
Andrea sent me this link today and it's of this touch screen that support pressure and multiple touch points.
I'm not gonna lie, click here to view this thing and be amazed (i know i was) January 10 *OooOoo Guh GuHH GUUUUUHHHH* Aaaaaaand I'm done.Fucking Apple. What do I say outloud when I first heard about Intel in Mac... Here let me tell you: "I'm going to hold out until they release the 15" powerbook with the intel processor before I buy a Mac".
Now with a little back story from the rumour mill stating that the Mac Mini and iBook were first on the list. Damn was that SO not true. Now it stares at me... In it's silver glory... Fucking thing.
Oh, and for funzies Apple also thought that showing thier Intel Ad would be an awesome way to bring it out with a bang, and bang they got. Seriously, the ad crashes your browser... FireFox, IE, ANYTHING and if you clicked that link you'll know what I'm talking about.
So while I walk around with this e-boner until my wallet doesn't look like Lindsay Lohan anymore, I shall watch forums and drool over pictures of the impossible dream. (or until some cheeky bastard hacks an intel OSX for us PC desktop kids that has native ATI graphics support) November 29 Find more music that you like! Introducing Pandora.I often get in certian musical moods and usually only have 1 or 2 artists that reflect that. Well along comes Pandora. This bad boy will actually take the artist you type in and analyize speed, pitch, feeling and mood. I typed in Yann Tiersen and it came up with a band called "Scout Niblett" and I actually really like it.
(p.s. the next song just came on and it's an artist called "Mirah" *grin* Andrea if you are reading this that's way too wierd!) November 14 More Free Google Stuff!This post is pretty geeky but if anyone has a website you might want to check out Google's Analytics. While being free this integrates with Adwords (another paid advertisment service by Google) to maximize your spending and to quickly understand what your visitors are doing.
I've added it to MX Projects so we'll have to see what happens in about 12 hours or so. The nice thing about the reports is that all the graphics and maps are done with Flash so they can make it look freakin' sweet while keeping the file size and server stress down.
I'm looking forward to messing with it a bit more and I'll probably get into the adwords program once I finish the 3rd version of my forum. September 27 Mmmm PeppersWell today at work Mike and I were visiting this kid who has some crazy rare cancer that is from Australia that came to New York to find true happiness and a cure and whatnot.
Anyways, down the page a bit there was this link to make a pepper... so I thought... Meh I'll click it...WOW I'm a pretty big Flash geek as you can tell from my message board / forum / whatever and I spent quite a bit of time pissing around with the different decorations and viewing the other peppers.
This is a really great example of how Flash can do some pretty rad things and whoever created that site should be damn proud!
If you are clever enough to use a screen capture thing post your peppers kids! (or the peper codes... whatever you want)
On the homepage in the bottom right you can see "got a pepper code?" enter 25011
