Cosmic Painter is a GPLed MacOSX application that allows you to paint on a "spinning" canvas, screating a Spir-O-Graph-like effect, which is then animated. The results are, well, trippy. I just fell down a rabbit hole looking at and playing with the samples. L ink (Thanks, FunWithStuff!)

Mailblocks Sells Out To AOL

Mailblocks Sells Out To AOL 08/04/2004 01:34 PM
When Mailblocks launched a year and a half ago, it seemed really strange. Here was a company that was doing exactly what a number of other companies were already doing (challenge-response email), but somehow Mailblocks got a ridiculous amount of press for their "me too" offering. They also suddenly trotted out a bunch of pointless patents and started suing everyone until a judge told them to give it up as the patents didn't seem particularly valid. Since then, the company has been fairly quiet. There have been reports of semi-frequent outages of the service, and unlike the predictions, it appears that challenge-response hasn't really taken off like people planned. So, the company with a big patent plan and good press contacts ended up quietly selling out to AOL, so that AOL can now offer an option that Earthlink gave its customers quite some time ago.

PSP Sells 500K

PSP Sells 500K 04/08/2005 10:39 AM

SCEA reports the PSP sold over 500,000 units in its first two days over here, saying it was "everything [they] hoped for." We've heard plenty of complaints about dead pixels, though, so a sizeable portion of those 500,000 are probably going right back to where they came from. Still, 500,000 units sold translate into $150 million in revenue for SCEA. I'd be interested to see some more up-to-date stats, but Sony doesn't appear to be releasing those quite yet.

Apple Sells 20% of 802.11g Products

Apple Sells 20% of 802.11g Products 02/19/2004 12:04 AM
BusinessWeek columnist notes that Apple's aggressive Wi-Fi promotion has brought them 20 percent global 802.11g marketshare and huge margins: Alex Salkever points out that Apple earned nearly $150 million from Wi-Fi in 2003 and talks about how Apple's managed to keep its premium margins. With increasing ease and cheaper alternatives ($75 for an equivalent Linksys WRT54G versus $200 to $250 for the Apple unit), Salkever predicts eroding markets that will force Apple to offer more features for fewer dollars. Interestingly side note: Salkever is using In-Stat/MDR numbers which shows Apple at 20 percent of worldwide unit volumes or $150 million in sales, above Linksys. Numbers reported by News.com from Synergy Research don't show Apple in the top five, and show Linksys revenue at $450 million. (I can't find In-Stat/MDR's breakout; their site shows just a few statistics that don't overlap with Synergy's.)...
