WOW. That’s all that comes to my mind right now. Big red WOOOOOOW. Possibly with a cherry on top….or something in those lines.
You know how sometimes you’re looking for a certain something and then what you come across is completely off topic? Like when you’re Googling for some MOSFET data sheet and you get a soup recipe instead? Well the same thing happened to me today…searching for something I came across something else…and one thing linked to the other…and I ended up HERE. Check out what I’ve found. This demo, called Iconoclast, has been released on July 2005 but I hadn’t seen it before, and if it wasn’t for this freak accident I would never have seen it, and that would have been the loss of a life time!!
So that’s what the WOW is for, this demo ROCKed my world so hard. Do check it out, it’s bloody amazing to put it lightly.
And hey, I was not looking for demos today. 😉
Update: Well I ended up registering an account in that website to leave a (+) for this demo. You might want to do the same!
Update: Hey hey hey people people! Comments regarding how kool this demo is, are NOT to be posted here! By rights they should go THERE! There’s a forum in there right?
Update: Quit asking what I was looking for…… 😛
Update: The “Shout Box” is open now. Feel free to say whatever….
UPDATE: EVERYONE DO CHECK OUT COMMENT #52 ON THIS POST!
UPDATE: EVERYONE DO CHECK OUT COMMENT #72 AS WELL!
Seriously! I think I’m totally in luv with this pretty little piece of technology. What am I talking about? Well I’m talking about what u see here in this picture. SONY’s FJ series notebook, and specifically the one in sky blue [what a surprise eh? :P]. It’s actually very cute, and very light. I’ve been using this baby for a while now and I don’t think I’ve ever been so happy with any of my systems before….believe me when I say the interior is even more impressive than the exterior. To name a few of the features that I’m really happy with: the motion eye camera with built in microphone, the comfy keyboard, the double layer DVD+R, the 1.86GHz processor, the 100GB hard drive, the XBRITE LCD and so many more. U can have a look @ the complete specifications here.
To anyone who might be planning on buying a notebook: make sure to have a careful look at this one, u won’t regret it!
OH….MY…GOODNESS….Just have a look @ this! The cutest little Robot ever! Pretty natural moves too. Very impressive indeed!
“We’ve all been waiting to finally own a True Walking Humanoid Robot, Kyosho of Japan will release MANOI, the “Ready-Made” Robot (that’s right; no assembly required) for about $1600. Wait til you see him Stand on One Leg and Do the “Wing Wave”…..you’ll want one too!!”
And yeah, I DO want one too! 😛

Look what I just found on digg [again!] If u’re an engineer, studying engineering [like me! :S], are interested in engineering, don’t like engineering and don’t want to have anything to do with engineers, read this….it’s pretty kool!
“The Engineer of 2020 Project byt the National Academy of Engineering centers on an effort to envision the future and to use that knowledge to attempt to predict the roles that engineers will play in the future. Very interesting read.”

I just found this article on “digg”. Been looking for something like this forever!!
“Tunatic is a software that listen to it and get you the artist’s name and the song’s title within seconds.”
Here u can read more about this software or dig this story.
I’ve been looking for a “good” feed aggregator [aka feed reader] software for quite a while. There are a lot of online aggregatorz and some of them seem to do a good job, but somehow I feel more comfortable with the onez that I can have on my desktop. It’z probably because there’z more u can do with desktop aggregatorz than online onez, plus they’re simply faster and easier to use. However, obviously not all the available desktop aggregators are so great! I’ve used THIS RssReader for quite a while but I’ve never really been happy with it.
– It’z not compatible with all versionz of RSS/Atom
– For some reason it finds errors in feed formats that really contain no errors (!!)
– It exports the feeds in an XML file that’s not compatible with any other aggregators [seemz to contain errorz!] and no OPML outputs whatsoever [so what’z the point of having an export feature like this anywayz??]
– Worst of all, somehow it managez to jump up to about 106MB mem usage in no more than 2 secondz after it’z run!
And these are only a few of it’z problems, but since I couldn’t’ find any better desktop aggregators I kept using it until today….yes… today I finally found THIS. It’z called RSS Bandit and so far it seemz to be the best one I’ve seen. It’z:
– Light
– Fast
– Easy to use
– Compatible with all sortz of feed formatz
– Low in mem usage
– Got OPML import & export
And so many other kool features. Plus, I gotta admit, the little bandit smiley face tray icon is cute! So if u’re looking for a good feed aggregator too, make sure to give this one a shot.
I) I got this pretty kool article yesterday in my RSS reader…it’z from Robots.net. Apparently there’z this new robot that can tell the difference between a mirror image of itself, and another robot looking exactly like it. It is said that this breakthrough can lead to creation of robots that are capable of emotion. Interesting eh? Somehow I can’t stop thinking about this….
II) Last night I started up on Greek grammar. [So far I know the alphabet, I’ve developed an understanding of the pronunciations and how things are supposed to sound like, and I know a bunch of words and short sentences.] U know what’s interesting? The grammar actually seems to be not so difficult. Then again this could be only the beginning…..
I’m also having so much fun with the Greek vocabulary. I don’t know how to put this in words…things “sound nice” in Greek! Also a lot of Greek words seem to have found their way into other languages, including Spanish and Persian. [In case of Persian I still don’t quite know which one has found its way into the other, although I’ve been doing a lot of “history” homework!] As a result, a lot of these new words are not so new to me!
