• High Speed Photography

    Posted on January 23, 2004

    There are images online from a couple of people who constructed a high speed photo lab using a BASIC stamp and some off the shelf parts. I have no idea how expensive high speed photography normally is, or just how hard it is to construct one of these, but the... [Read More]

  • RSS WinterFest Resources

    Posted on January 22, 2004

    RSS WinterFest is an RSS webcast that went on over the last two days. Along with the webcast went a wiki a weblog and tons of other resources linked in through both of those. There are some great points brought up, and some points that I really don’t agree with... [Read More]

  • SF Weblogger Meetup

    Posted on January 22, 2004

    I went to the Weblogger Meetup in San Francisco last night, but only one other person showed up. I think that it just isn’t going to happen at all. During December lots of people showed cause the crew from Blogger.com were there. But besides the people that Jason Shellen invited,... [Read More]

  • Social Entrepreneur

    Posted on January 19, 2004

    Joi Ito had a post yesterday that mentioned he thinks of himself as a “Social Entrepreneur”, and pointed to this definition at Stanford Business School. I found the commentary to be a pretty interesting overview of entrepreneurship in general. I’ve just discovered that I’m a huge Schumpeter fan, and now... [Read More]

    MyPalmLife reports today on a GPS solution from TomTom, and last week there was news about an option from Navman. Both of them seem to offer Bluetooth based GPS devices, which I would love to get my hands on to try out. Of course, I would be more interested in... [Read More]

  • Free RSS Webcast

    Posted on January 18, 2004

    There was an event close to where I lived about RSS, but I had to miss it. Looks like there’s a chance to make it up however, a webcast about RSS called RSS Winterfest. I signed up and I’ll probably drop in on some of the sessions. I wish they... [Read More]

    Posted on January 18, 2004

    Russell Beattie has started a new website to serve as a “knowledge base for mobile phones”. He posted about it in his blog, describing why he chose the collaboration format that he did and what the goals are. I immediately signed up and added info for a bunch of the... [Read More]

  • Perl for Symbian

    Posted on January 18, 2004

    The Register is reporting that Nokia is planning a Perl port for series 60 phones. This would be really cool. Not only cause I think more development options are a good idea, but because the language is an open source option. I admit I’m not familiar with most of what... [Read More]
