| Obi-Wan or Qui-Gon Cursor |
| 2007-02-08 16:45:21 |
So this guy, Russ Nelson uses four monitors and he sometimes loses track of the cursor. Well he has his Qui-Gon to show him where his cursor is at. I know he has four monitors but I'm not really sure why you would need it to find your cursor but I guess it's more amusing than purposeful. Anyways he hooked this thing up to a Makezine Controller which costs you $149.99, two servo motors, and a program which is on his site. The following is a video of it in action.

Lately you might have noticed that I have been posting infrequently. I have not really had much time to post lately. I'm also not sure if any one is still reading this blog. Maybe I could try to post more frequently just shorter posts? Maybe I should just get rid of this blog? I'm not really sure. If any one is still reading this tell me what you think.

| Newgie.com |
| 2006-10-19 18:31:11 |
Newgie uses the attention given to each news story by its readers to determine which stories are the most interesting and newsy. Implicit human actions, such as page views, recommendations, and favorites, are all parts of the equation. Articles are then sorted by Newsiness, making it easy to find the news that matters most. Unlike traditional web 2.0 news-organizers, Newgie utilizes implicit human actions, such as page views, recommendations, and favorites, to determine newsiness, rather than a voting mechanism such as Digg. By focusing on natural actions that people take whenever they read the news, Newgie focuses on the most innate indications of interest in the story. The result is that Newgie users easily find news stories neatly organized into hundreds of subject categories that are the most interesting, the most current, and of course the most newsy.

| Zune Mockup |
| 2006-10-05 00:35:21 |
Wow, if only the Zune really looked this good. It's obviously a lot thinner than what the actual Zune is and of course there are no WiFi headphones. In my opinion I don't really think WiFi headphones would be practical. I really like the idea of this though.

I just came across a site that I wanted to point out that shows a photo comparison of the Zune and the new 80GB iPod. "The Zune weighs considerably less than the iPod. Screen size on the Zune is a slightly larger 3-inches, but you don't get a real sense for how much difference that makes till you see it next to the iPod screen."Check out the site for more pictures.

| GameStop: Reserve PS3 or Wii |
| 2006-09-18 07:33:00 |
Okay so here in this picture it seems like GameStop will force you to trade in $50 worth of trade-ins to reserve a PS3 or Wii. In trade-ins that's a lot because as you probably know you hardly get much at all for them. This isn't confirmed yet but it seems likely that it's true. We'll see Monday as the posters should go up then.
