Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Monday, October 31, 2005. A reverse sort of babelfish. One of several on-the-fly language translator prototypes from Carnegie Mellon consists of implanting electrodes in a person's cheeks converts facial muscle movements into speech. So while you're babbling away in English, your listeners might be hearing you in Spanish, Cantonese and Esperanto simultaneously. School keeps students from See You at the Pole.

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Thursday, July 28, 2005. Wednesday, July 27, 2005. My candy collection was recently enhanced from coworkers bringing more to try, so I hadta document 'em before I ate 'em all. I believe that's a Russian chocolate at the top left, a coupla Korean plum and strawberry candies, a Japanese hard candy, and a coupla Mexican candies, all surrounding a lovely smelling lavendar chocolate (that was edible and quite delicious! Now this is a high-tech fire alarm. Friday, July 22, 2005.

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Thursday, February 23, 2006. Campaign Spending and Chewing Gum. Fun fact of the day - Did you know that in an election year (think presidency, House and Senate) politicians spend a combined $1 billion on campaigning? Did you know this is also the amount Americans spend in the same time period on chewing gum? Levitt, Freakonomics, p12). Ran across this on a friend. Now where is that apostrophe supposed to go.) blog. Wednesday, February 22, 2006. Though there's no statisti...

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Thursday, December 15, 2005. We just shipped the first beta of Exchange 12 this week, as covered in this brief article. Using Monad to setup stuff on the server is one of the areas I own. Well, technically, those areas where Monad and Store overlap, and Store is the database that's used to store new users, storage groups, mailboxes, and a bunch of other stuff that probably is not making much sense.

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Wednesday, March 01, 2006. Microsoft One-ups Google Maps. Ok, this is just cool (and no downloads required): http:/ preview.local.live.com/. As usual, in the preview version the images are limited to the Seattle area (and apparently SF, been having too much fun in Seattle to try that one though.). View my complete profile.

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Tuesday, November 22, 2005. Legalization of Drugs and Prohibition. In light of which it seems almost as foolish to suppose that doing away with speed limits would lead to safer roads. ;-). Wednesday, November 16, 2005. What famous leader do you identify with? Ran across this quiz on Abigail's blog. Awhile back, and couldn't help but take it. Apparently Einstein was as scatterbrained an introvert as me; now I just need to work on that bedhead look. Jacobs, an independent ...

Comment-link {margin-left:.6em;}. Thursday, January 26, 2006. Enter an artist, band, movie, director, or actor, and it draws out a map showing that "item" relationship to others. Nodes in the graph are color coded as to whether they are related by content/subject, artist or director. Very cool for finding new music or movies to try. Ok, this is just cool. As you hover over a color or adjust the saturation, it pulls a dozen pictures from Flckr. URL: http:/ krazydad.com/colrpickr/. Cool Site - Colr Pickr.

Eileen Barish. Has put together several travel books on finding monasteries open to traveling visitors, regardless of religious background, with an average cost of $20 or 30 a night. Apparently Europeans have been vacationing in this manner for years, and I must admit I'm rather intrigued by the idea. Unread mess...
