Cat Pushes Dog Too Far

July 23rd, 2008

I am a pet owner. More specifically a cat owner, and I can really appreciate this video. You always wonder if the cat really understands what he/she is doing.

Check the video out and I am sure you will laugh with me.

Fifteen sets of twins hook up with ImprovEverywhere to create a “Human Mirror” on a subway car in New York. You can view the video below.

Tired of Twitter?

July 7th, 2008

If you are tired of the instability of Twitter, you might want to try Plurk. Plurk is a web 2.0 version of Twitter. There is a nice mobile version, it has a built in Karma system, and there is also a widget for your website as well. It is definitely worth a look, but I guess just like any other social site, without your friends following you, does it even matter if it is bigger and better than Twitter?

Firefox 3, Beta 5

April 4th, 2008

I know this has been out for a little while now, but I have to say, I am impressed. I gave up on FireFox shortly after Internet Explorer 7 was released because what I used the browser for there was little difference.

However, Mozilla has continued to add more and more functionality to Firefox 3. You can browse the release notes to get some idea of what I am talking about, but to get the full picture, you have to download and check out what is coming with the release of Firefox 3.

As with any beta product, you should expect some bugs to be present, but all in all I have found it to be much more stable that Firefox 2 was when it was released.

befunky is a great website that offers “Funky Ways to Express Yourself”. They integrate with Facebook, mySpace, bebo, Friendster, and many others. If you do not have an account on any of these social networks, you can still enjoy this site and it’s features. In just a few clicks, I created this cartoonized picture of myself.

Evernote

March 22nd, 2008

Evernote takes “going paperless” to a whole new level. This website and application pair up to make one fascinating productivity tool. You can take photos and upload them to the site via any number of methods and these pictures are analyzed and indexed by any text found in the pictures. It is amazingly accurate, even with handwritten notes!

In addition to uploading photos you can type regular notes and take web clips and store them there as well. These are also indexed and easily searched.

The optional application that they offer works in Windows XP/Vista and Mac OS X (Leopard).

I can think of countless uses for this technology! See the video tour below.
