Tangled Up in Glue

Tangled Up in Glue 07/22/2004 08:11 AM

IDFuel has nice introduction to those substance most often needed after dropping a gadget to the floor (as opposed to the substance that caused you to drop it): glue. The trick to glue, of course, is to discover what types of surfaces you will be adhering together; after that, all you need is some deft swearing and some luck. I would also toss in to the mix a favorite link of mine, "This to That.com," a simple webform that helps you pick what adhesive to use to glue two different (or the same, I guess) surfaces together.

Glue element - use of use

Glue element - use of use 08/02/2004 02:37 AM

Striking the balance between functionality and over-crowded screen designs has always been the greatest challenge of digital lifestyle aggregators.

On one hand - you want to give folks as much control, functionality and flexibility as possible. While on the other hand you don't want it to overwhelm people.

So I believe you start with a blank canvas - much like 'Spring' does - and you build from there. The whole thing feels like teh MyYahoo config screen, but it's drag and drop and sexy and state-of-the-art.

Modules range from simple PIM, blog or media mngt modules to more complex and sophisticated functionality like a micro-content aggreagtor or Nat Friedman's Dashboard or Flickr photostreams.

Certainly a really simple SMIL sequence editor is in there.

Available as a Laszlo or D HTML front-end, slanted towards male female, young, old - 4 skins. Built-in content, support for all new kinds of micro-content. Social network, mobile, communications as basic constructs.

Oh yah - this started off as a post about "ease of use" and how we can achieve balance while still delivering power.

I think I have the answer. Here's Om asking for it (and agreeing with Peter Merholz)......

Most of you have heard me complain, bitch, moan and rant about how tech companies don't make it easier on consumers when it comes to using technology. Apparently I am not alone. Peter Me writes in Shit is too hard to use, "I'm working on a project where I get to go into people's homes and watch them attempt to set up an internet-enabled device (excuse the vagueness). And, without fail, they cannot. What's interesting to me is how they fail -- each time it's different. Though often in the same part of the process, the detail that causes them to go astray varies -- mistyped email addresses, password confusion, network set up, clicking the wrong link and getting lost, etc. etc. And I'm sure that with each subsequent observation, we'll observe new hitches."

Shuttle disaster down to bad glue

Shuttle disaster down to bad glue 08/14/2004 08:10 AM
Just over a year and a half ago, a 'suitcase sized chunk of foam' broke off and did serious damage to the space shuttle Columbia. Hitting the shuttle's left wing, its damage would cause the shuttle to break up on re-entry. The investigation into the disaster has recently completed its work, and has come to a conclusion on exactly what happened.

The Columbia Accident Investigation Board concluded that the fault was not with the foam, but with the way it was applied; by hand and stuck on with glue guns. The process left many places still exposed, allowing liquid hydrogen to seep in. As the hydrogen warmed up, it expanded, causing the pieces of insulating foam above it to pop off, with seemingly lethal force.

NASA officials commented that “It was not the fault of the guys on the floor; they were just doing the process we gave them." NASA are now attempting to get the fuel tanks recertified, and ready for space flight. The tanks now face tighter regulations. At $40 million per tank, they represent a massive investment for NASA.

I love Andre's new dropcash app, because it helps you coordinate a little fundraiser (like this test one) simply using paypal and typekey. It's cool that both systems allow for third party apps like this to spring up, as this provides functionality the amazon donations/payment program has, but paypal never had. Hopefully paypal rolls this into their system or gives Andre a job doing it for them.

Excuses Make Poor Glue

Excuses Make Poor Glue 05/19/2004 04:38 AM

Six Apart's new gravy-train license for MT lasted only a day.  With new changes, it's looking a lot more bearable to MT users.  While I respect their fast response to criticisms, I think the worst of the damages, loss of trust and sense of betrayal, are not reversable unfortunately.

I also question the wisdom of emphasizing misunderstandings and miscommunications when the former places the blame squarely on the MT users and the later undermines Six Apart's competence.  Whether true or not, I don't think excuses are very effective in situations like the one they are in.

If I was running Six Apart, I would have just pleaded temporary idiocy and begged for forgiveness instead of serving a string of weak excuses which just end up as fodder for suspicion.

Biomimetic glue modeled on mussels

Biomimetic glue modeled on mussels 04/11/2005 11:25 AM
David Pescovitz: Oregon State University researchers developed new wood adhesives modeled after the way mussels stick to rocks even under the hard wash of ocean waves. Wood Science and Engineering professor Kaichang Li searched for a natural material that could imitate the Mussel's adhesive protein but is more readily available. His eureka moment came while eating tofu. From the press release:

Soy beans, from which tofu are made, are a crop that's abundantly produced in the U.S. and has a very high content of protein," Li said. Soy protein is inexpensive and renewable, but it lacks the unique amino acid with phenolic hydroxyl groups that provide adhesive properties. Li's research group was able to add these amino acids to soy protein, and make it work like a mussel-protein adhesive. Then they began to develop other strong and water-resistant wood adhesives from renewable natural materials using mussel protein as a model...

One of these patented adhesives is currently cost-competitive with a commonly used urea-formaldehyde resin, researchers say, but does not use formaldehyde or other toxic chemicals...

"The plywood we make with this adhesive can be boiled for several hours and the adhesive holds as strong as ever," Li said. "Regular plywood bonded with urea-formaldehyde resins could never do that."

This morning I spoke with Richard Wallis, who is the technical development manager for Talis, one of the OPAC (online public access catalog) vendors whose clients' libraries are accessible using LibraryLookup< /a>. Talis is one of a handful of OPACs for which I'd built static lists of bookmarklets, based on information I'd gathered from libdex.com. Maintaining those long lists was problematic, though, as maintaining long lists always is. So last month I deprecated them in favor of the bookmarklet generator. ...

We need to keep something straight: the Bush administration’s adventures in Iraq have no connection to 9/11. On and on and on these suck the same breath for no reason. The question nobody has the nerve to ask is “Can you clearly explain, Mr. President, the explicit, direct relationship between the ‘War on Terror’ and our invasion and occupation of Iraq?” May I elaborate, Mr. President? Everyone’s serious about responding to 9/11....

First revealed nearl y a year ago, Adidas has finally launched its computerized running smart shoe, which will cost you a mere $250 and the constant nagging question of what will you do when it crashes on you? The shoe is designed with a microprocessor that will constantly measure the pounding you're giving the shoe and will try to adjust the cushioning to protect your knees for another day. It still seems like a fairly niche market -- but it could become much more interesting if other devices learn to make use of the spare cycles in your shoes. Think of it as bodily distributed computing.
