Bubbles the Artist! If you've been looking for a Pee Wee Herman dinner plate, a greeting card featuring Paul Lynde, or a pain ting of John Belushi drinking himself to death, then look no further. (If you love crappy disco midi files, you'll want to keep your speakers turned up.)

Frozen-Bubbles: a bigger escape key

Frozen-Bubbles: a bigger escape key 12/03/2003 05:18 AM
One thing that was missing from my newly migrated desktop is a big escape key. No, not the little Esc key on the keyboard. One bigger than that. A mind-rotting time waster that truly allows you to escape for a bit. On my Red Hat desktop, freecell was the big escape key. Now that I'm running Mandrake, I've found a new one. It's called "Frozen-Bubble."

Picture Bubbles

Take a picture on the web, any picture will do as long as its accessible by a URL, and attach a comment to all or parts of the picture which is displayed in a cartoon bubble.  The bubble can also be set to pop-up on mouseover or mouseclick.

Wiki Toons

Start with a large picture or a series of related pictures placed on a wiki page in a row, a column, or a grid.  Allow people to change or comment on all or parts of the pictures using tools on the web page.  Put four in a row and let people create a toon by filling in the bubbles.

Stage Page

Fill top half of a page with a large image.  That's the stage.  Fill the bottom half with images of characters and props.  Let people play with the characters and props and share the experience with other players and spectators.  Record positions in time and let people replay one scene at a time.  For kids and adults only.

Ate too much meat, drank too much alcohol, and met an surprisingly large number of interesting people. (Thanks to everyone - especially all the beautiful maidens on Friday - and apologies for being so subdued most of the time. I really did enjoy myself, even if I didn't always look the part. :)

I have the most distressing possible week coming up I can think of (barring accidents). Why is work always so hectic around this time of the year?

Perhaps I need a walkabout. Something in me wants to just go.

Sure, it isn’t a peek at what has got to be the most intriguing offering to come down the old Hasbro pike, but the image above does shed a little light on the direction the toymakers are going with the new The Original Trilogy line. Coming from a very reliable source, this logo is almost certainly the real deal (though it may only be used for promotion), and with the truly vintage feel it has, there is little doubt the figures that will come in this series will be just as cool…

And there's also RetroFuture to help you remember flying cars and smell-o-vision. Ah, yes, remember when computers were predicted to beat us all at chess? Oh wait.

Condemned To Repeat The Past?

Condemned To Repeat The Past? 04/13/2005 06:17 AM
Last week, I mentioned one of the lessons learned from Andy Kessler's newest book, How We Got Here: A Slightly Irreverent History of Technology and Markets. I've just finished reading it, and just in time, as well, since you can now check it out for free. While the hard copy version doesn't come out until June, Kessler is releasing the book for free download off his site in e-book form. If you read his previous book, Running Money, you might even recognize a few short passages in the new book. In Running Money, Kessler goes through his own experience figuring out the mental model that guided his investment philosophy in technology -- and part of that included a brief history lesson in the start of the industrial revolution. HWGH is basically an extended version of that history lesson, written in the same light tone -- designed to be the basic, quick history manual that anyone in the tech world (in just about any capacity, from engineer to business to investing) should read. Indeed, we're already seeing startups and companies making business decisions that seem like they're following the same bad footsteps companies took only five years ago. Is it any surprise that some are repeating the mistakes of 200 years ago as well? One of the worst things in the tech and business world these days is that many people can't view trends out past a quarter (or they simply extract one single trend, without recognizing how others impact them). Any intelligent business person needs to recognize how trends play out in the long term, and how they interact with each other. HWGH gives you plenty of trends from the past few centuries to help guide you into that longer term thinking.

The future and past of journalism

The future and past of journalism 06/05/2005 11:34 PM
Scott Rosenberg has written a very nice essay on the future of journalism in the age when anyone can publish. He has caught the moment that we stand in well, with the old media monopolies dying but not dead, and the new media struggling to be born, but not clear what it will be born as. He captures well a phenomenon that experienced in my teens and will never forget, the experience of having someone report on something you know well, and discovering how flawed and human supposedly authoritative institutions like major newspapers are. In my case, I was living in Niger in West Africa, and I once met the Washington Post journalist who was responsible for covering the entire continent of Africa (which is by itself an amazing fact). He spent 5 days in the country and then left, not to return again for a year or so, and on the basis of those 5 days wrote 5 or so articles on events and trends in Niger, each of which contained things stated as facts that I thought were patently false. It was a good learning experience for a future political activist. I suspect that, in spite of the many reasons why the existing institutions and practicioners of journalism should be able to see the writing on the wall, we are entering another period of Schumpeterian Creative Destruction. I also suspect that what arises from the ashes that we will recognize as journalism will arise from the mix of new sources like blogs, group blogs, indymedia, PLOS, Kuroshin, etc. not from the transformation of existing institutions....
