November 04 Call All American citizens – Vote, and get free things!If this won’t get you out to vote, I don’t know what will :) Free Starbucks to voters: Free Krispy Kreme Donut: Free Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream: August 10 Things you learn when you talk to your friends...Probably old news, but I learnt something new today http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rickroll
wow 18million+ views... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBGIQ7ZuuiU July 18 Waste the Prince of Darkness!Someone sent me this link about an interview experience at a Microsoft gaming group… I thought it’s hilarious, and yet fairly appropriate to the type of personalities that you’d more likely to encounter in a gaming division (now that I am in one :)) Oh and i guess playing Ninja Gaiden 2 also make the following even more relevant! hehe. http://www.sellsbrothers.com/fun/msiview/#Wasting_the_Prince_of_Darkness July 10 I hope space travel becomes a reality in my lifetime :)And it begins with this! Sponsored by Microsoft Research - http://www.spaceelevatorconference.org/
The conference is held in Redmond. Clarke is one of my favourite sci-fi authors and the first time I read about the space elevator was when I read his novel 'The Fountain of Paradise' in highschool. I remember I used to think this is just way too out there until I did some more research into it back then and realized that it is actually something that is possible (although, apart from all sorts of engineering difficulties, there are still things to consider like climatic changes, asteroids/satellite bodies colliding with the elevator etc.). Still, I filed it away still as fantasy then and never thought of it again.
Imagine my surprise when MS Research actually hosted a talk from a company a few years ago on this same subject. I forgot who came to speak at that time, but it was cool to there are people out there that think this is actually possible, and are trying to accomplish it. Now I see the effort is still forging onward - I might go and see whether they did make any breakthroughs (from looking at the site, it doesn't seem so though....)
June 27 can you live with 100 things only?I have already downsized my belongings when I moved into a smaller place 1.5 years ago. But they are accumulating slightly again :S Keeping things to a minimum is definitely a good thing.
I like this quote from the article:
It is hard to separate yourself from things with sentimental value though... Also, I think people keep certain things because they are defined by what they own, I think those type of things will also be hard to part with... unless you want to be all mysterious and all :) June 05 when did Jacky Chan start selling Segway scooters?oh well, it's a good thing though, I want one! A black one like what Jeff Bridges used in Iron man May 29 high-tech tennis... from LacosteEnjoy this nice promotional video from Lacoste on the future of tennis.
The video is brought to you courtesy of Akama Studio - the same studio who did the famous 'Fight for Kisses' tv commercial for Quattro shaver.
btw, Spaces really needs the ability to assign multiple category to an entry .... May 23 Something Good!A friend just linked this to me. It's been a long time since I saw this video (the song is remixed, but the music video looks the same as the original)...
Btw, for those of you who likes Utah Saints, they are performing in Seattle @ Studio 7 this Saturday :)
Utah Saints were really ahead of their time, they were one of the first to incorporate other artists samples in their original works. It's good to see one of their biggest hits now getting popular again. May 15 ASIMO's new achievement!Walk, run (in circles), go up and down the stairs, and now he can conduct symphonies!
April 21 Hmm is this for real? :Shttp://www.pop-mo.com/redirect.php?tid=27066&goto=lastpost If so, that's one major design/engineering oversight.... |
