A friend just forwarded http://www.thewildernessdowntown.com/ to me and advised me to check it out.....wow...I was seriously impressed with the use of HTML5, javascript, the timing between windows,sync with the song, the use of past life addresses to make the experience "yours"...if you have a few minutes I think its worth more than a quick look...I used Chrome to view, you most likely will have to also..

if this is indicative of what native HTML5 can produce....like always in this field, we're in for some change!

Cisco to unveil news that will 'forever change the Internet', way to undersell!

It'll be interesting to see what effect this type of pre-notice has on their stock.....and it will be interesting to see what it really is about once the dust settles

Here's some stats on ol' Sasquatch:

• The creature is seven feet seven inches tall.
• It weighs over five hundred pounds.
• The creature looks like it is part human and part ape-like.
• It is male.
• It has reddish hair and blackish-grey eyes.
• It has two arms and two legs, and five fingers on each hand and five toes on each foot.
• The feet are flat and similar to human feet.
• Its footprint is sixteen and three-quarters inches long and five and three-quarters inches wide at the heel.
• From the palm of the hand to the tip of the middle finger, its hands are eleven and three-quarters inches long and six and one-quarter inches wide.
• The creatures walk upright. (Several of them were sighted on the same day that the body was found.)
• The teeth are more human-like than ape-like.
• DNA tests are currently being done and the current DNA and photo evidence will be presented at the press conference on Friday, August 15th.
• In life, it considered Supertramp's "Breakfast in America" one of the most completely satisfying records of all time. Followed closely by Meatloaf's classic "Bat out of Hell"

Well its been one week since we took the plunge and bought an iMac as opposed to upgrading and going with Vista. We've been thinking about Macs for a long time now, we've used them in the past (errr... System 7 era ), and my Brother-in-law is a long time Mac-head....so the end result after one week.....

Enthusiastically pleased and just *impressed* with the OS, the UI, the performance, the apps, really everything, this stuff is slick and solid. I told my Brother-in-Law he should have pushed harder, definitely one of those "shoulda done this sooner" events.

As corny, and as much as it sounds like marketing blurbs....you feel like you have a tool that enables you as opposed to something you have to manage all the time.

Glad we took the plunge!

Is this my stop? *Sigh*

How old is the Grand Canyon? Mum's the word since you don't want to offend creationists.

Joseph Barbera died yesterday at age 95. Barbera was the animating half of the Hanna / Barbera duo, who have created some of the most memorable cartoon characters of all time.

I know this guy contributed to my amusement greatly as a child and still today as an adult, as I watch shows with my kids... their stuff is timeless.

Wow...I could see maybe trace/small remains (which they have been finding on roofs) but whole bones, down a manhole?! How did they get in there? Weird....

Remains found at WTC site in manhole

Why else would this "extraordinarily rare event" happen twice in close timeframe? They are taking back the seas.... http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/10/19/stingray.ap/index.html

**** -Yikes.

Latest in an lively series of speeches this week...Hugo-mania!

5 Years...there's so many opinion pieces that I found interesting reads over the last 36 hours or so, regardless of what you think of Olbermann, this piece is a good one to think on...
Keith Olbermann - We Have Not Forgotten Mr. President

Ahahahaha! Not saying I agree with the sportmanship of this action, but this is one of the funnier takes on the Zidane headbutt online....maybe its because I'm a gamer

France Fighter II Turbo

Wow! These are great looking customizations of Powerbooks. I just came across this while skimming the MAKE rss feed this morning.

Recent Etching
How they do it
Makes me wish I had a spare $15 grand to get a epilog mini, if you were in an "Apple Hot Bed" you could probably re-coup that cost pretty quick just doing these etchings......hmm.... :p
