The Catapult Watch!: Must...have....this.

The only watch that's also a weapon- it shoots BBs, dried peas, popcorn kernels, lentils and more up to 8 feet accross the room! This stainless steel watch will be the envy of the classroom or the meeting room. Use it to "wake-up" those sleepy headed co-workers and classmates. When they look around to see who's been pelting them with spitballs, you'll just be casually checking the time.

Life Imitate Art, Or Is Art Too Real?

Life Imitate Art, Or Is Art Too Real? 06/23/2004 04:22 AM
Here's a story about a Microsoft employee sending an e-mail to Bill Gates, and getting a real reply back, where Bill says he is indeed happy. And everyone celebrates after receiving the e-mail from Bill, and the e-mail got framed on the wall, and the Microsoft employee ended up on cloud nine.
What is interesting is one of the comments below: "Have I mistakenly stumbled across the fabled 'lost chapter from Microserfs'?"

MSNBC reports that electrical devices in the town of Canneto di Caronia, Sicily have been spontaneously combusting. It's gotten so bad that the entire town had to be evacuated. The power company removed the town from the grid and put it on a generator, until the generator also caught fire.

"Every time some new scientist comes to town, they arrive thinking the whole thing has been invented or that they're going to solve the mystery in two minutes. They've all been wrong." [...] "Someone wrote to us saying the solution was to sacrifice a black goat and collect its blood. At some point, that's going to start looking like a good idea."

Weird.

A Real-Life Hobbit Hole

A Real-Life Hobbit Hole 12/28/2004 05:13 PM

A Maryland couple has plans to build their own Hobbit Hole dwelling, and has set up a website to raise funds for it and to share progress updates.

The floorplan sketch that Rob has provided on his info page doesn't quite follow my interpretation of Tolkien's description of Bilbo Baggins' Hobbit Hole. But even so, it is an interesting project, both from a construction and a funding standpoint.

Anybody want to help me out with some cash for my upcoming kitchen remodel? I'll accept cash, check, money order, or PayPal.

Is this Real or How Are You Going to

Is this Real or How Are You Going to Make Money from Feedster?

On a more serious note, I've been getting some questions as to "This seems to be real ... Ah how are you paying for it?".  Good question.  Having suffered through a particularly business challenged DOT com, suffice it to say that I don't expect that to happen.  And bear in mind that I've done this stuff before.  That's not a guarantee of success but it is hopefully at least a small indicator in that direction.

We've got some fairly good ideas of how to make a business out of this that will roll out over the coming months.  I can tell you this:

• No banner ads
• No popups
• No selling of personal information

Beyond that I'm really not ready to say.  And we're already seeing additional interest in our bread and butter consulting services so that's great.  But as they used to say "we will sell no wine before its time" ...  Well I think you get the idea.  Its early yet so while we know how we think we can make money, we need to fine tune the product, work with users, etc.  You know the drill.

On Leaving Us Feedback

If you leave us feedback, leave us an email address if you want a reply.  That's pretty simple.  And be clear if you can.  Just give us something to work with.  Every single comments is a) logged to a database b) assigned a status (open, done, closed, etc) and almost everything is responded to.

A New Gaming Engine That Can Make Games
More... Real?

A New Gaming Engine That Can Make Games
More... Real? 12/22/2003 02:10 AM
The graphics in computer video games are certainly getting better and better with each generation. However, they're reaching the "good enough" point, such that people are beginning to focus more and more on the actual game play, rather than the game look. When they do that, they notice that many games are... well, repetitive and predictable. So, is there a way to make games unpredictable in a realistic way that doesn't require massively powerful new hardware? That seems to be the plan of Condition30, a Canadian company that believes they've been able to create more realistic gaming engines that involve giving the engine some basic parameters, and letting it figure out the rest - in order to ensure that the end results are a lot less predictable and (hopefully) a lot more realistic. The article is pretty short on details, and raises the skepticism alarm in the back of my head. One thing going for the company, though, is that among the founders is JD "Illiad" Frazer of User Friendly.

Eco Egg Washing Machine

Eco Egg Washing Machine 04/15/2005 09:59 AM

The Eco Egg Washing Machine will delicately handle even your most fragile, lacey underthings, using "gentle agitation" in lieu of the traditional agitator. It's been around since 2003, but Shiny Shiny covered it and I couldn't resist. Definitely the most fun washing machine to pretend you're an astronaut in, it's available from Amazon for just $75, and can plug right into the kitchen faucet in your studio apartment. The big downside: There's no spin-dry, so you have to hand-wring your clothes.

A new washing machine developed by the Dai Nippon Printing Company can read special smart tags on clothing and instruct the user the best method with which to wash the clothes. Not only that, but the LG-built unit can keep track of how many times a particular item has been washed, what material it is made out of, and can even send an email or SMS when your load of laundry is complete.

Roland sez: "It's Sunday and you realize that all your clothes are dirty. If you're a student, it's time to go to your campus laundry room. But wait, you might be lucky enough to plan your laundry in advance. In this article, the Boston Globe reports that it's now possible in some colleges and universities in the U.S. "to go online to check all laundry rooms on campus and see which washers and dryers are open, occupied, or broken; how long until a machine completes a cycle; and how many others are waiting." Users of the LaundryView system "can arrange for an e-mail to alert them when it's time to put clothes into the dryer or rescue their wardrobe and fold it." This overview contains more details on this 'Web service' and includes a screenshot of what students can see if the LaundryView system has been installed on their campus."
