Now you can enjoy a classic NES game as "volumetric isometric
3d graphics using a Voxel Sculpting tool," which means is in
some weird 3d now, and more confusing.
In other Metroid news, a brand new speed run of Super Metroid was
released a while back,
58 minutes with 100 percent completion. And unlike
those
"time
attack" videos that have
come with
some controversy, this
speed run was played on a SNES
console and recorded the old fashion way. For more speed runs and time
attacks,

Chinese Movie Industry Recognizes Movie
Watching Is A Social Experience
03/22/2005 05:03 PMYesterday we noted that the MPAA and movie theater owners were
whini
ng about how much people coming in an taping movies was hurting
their business. The obvious response, we pointed out, is to recognize
that going to the movies is a
social experience. It's not just
about the content (though, that is important), but the overall
experience. If they improved that, then people would want to go --
even if they could score the same movie off the internet or a cheap
DVD bought off the street. While the folks in Hollywood refuse to
entertain this idea, someone (anonymously) in the comments to that
story pointed to an article in China noting that
this is exactly what Chinese movie theaters have done.
After years of declining attendance, they finally shaped up and made
going to the movies cool again. They improved the overall experience,
putting in better equipment and more comfortable seats. They improved
the sound and the lighting as well. It sounds like they also made
some theaters to be more like bars, to help attract young adults away
from traditional bars. Yet the supposedly "creative" movie people in
Hollywood insist "nothing can be done" to get people into the theater.

Your Next OS: Windows 2006?
01/02/2004 06:06 AMThe next version of Windows, code-named Longhorn, is still in the
early stages of its journey to the retail corral, but our hands-on
look at a preview reveals features we'd love to have now--while
raising some intriguing questions.
In addition to the interface revisions, including the new Sidebar,
that we saw in our first glimpse of Longhorn (see "Sneak Peek: Windows
XP's Successor"), Microsoft has altered Windows Explorer, the program
that controls the desktop and its computer- and file-browsing windows.
In our preview code (the official beta isn't due until the second half
of 2004, and rumor has it that the upgrade may not ship until 2006),
Windows Explorer routinely displayed much more information about files
and computer resources than it does in Windows XP. New links in
Explorer panels let users and/or applications associate search
keywords, comments, and categories with files, data within files, or
objects stored on other devices, computers, or networks. This is the
first evidence of Longhorn's new WinFS file system, which lets you
find related resources regardless of their physical location or object
type.

400,000 Vacuum Bots by 2006?
400,000 Vacuum Bots by 2006?
11/11/2003 01:16 AMCNN has an article
touting Hitachi's vacuum robot. Yeah, yeah, "big deal" I said to
myself. But, what was really interesting
to me;
was that
in the article it
states that a UN study says that the vacuum cleaner robot sales are
to soar to
over 400k units by 2006. I'm aware that
this has been reported before and also again back in the
past, but when the
numbers hit me... Wow! But, me without a robot vacuum company and in
2006 there'll be sales of 400k
vacuum robots! That really... [no... I refrain].
Despite their high price tag, (well, actually the price of
at least one isn't so bad) it appears that
people love their home vacuum bots,
and time is getting scarce.
There could be also be as many as 125k lawn-mower bots, and up to 1.5
million
robot toys like Sony's AIBO robotic dog in just a couple years.
Wow, big numbers, I know, but still the
magnatitude finally hit me and I guess I was a little stunned, and
maybe it WAS a little
surprising to me. Is it just me? I guess it's time for me to dust
off my vacuum bot designs
and get on the bandwagon - there's money to be made and time's a
wastin.

New Microsoft Exchange due out in 2006
03/30/2005 05:19 PMThe next version of Microsoft's Exchange Server--software used to
manage e-mail, contact lists and calendars--will arrive in 2006,
according to a company executive.
Andy Lees, corporate vice president of marketing for Microsoft's
server and tools business, revealed the ship date Tuesday. Previously,
the Redmond, Wash.-based software company had said the software would
arrive in 2006 or 2007. The software, currently called Exchange Server
12, will incorporate new features to handle voice mail and faxes. The
current version of Exchange Server was released in 2003. It's a
dominant program in the market, but it faces
competition from
products sold by IBM, Novell, Sun Microsystems and others.

Car-To-Car Ad-hoc WLAN to be created by

12/22/2004 01:23 AMFound this rather neat article on
The Register,
infact, it was something I was discussing with a bunch of friends at
college last week! Nice to know we are being heard.
Car makers BMW, Audi, Daimler Chrysler, Volkswagen, Renault and Fiat
have won a German government grant to help develop the basis for a
standard method for car-to-car wireless data.
NOW is focusing on 802.11 technology and IPv6 to develop
"inter-vehicle communication based on ad hoc networking
principles". Essentially, it's exploring ways that moving
vehicles can automatically set up temporary links with other cars,
bikes and trucks in the vicinity, and share traffic information.
With routing capabilities, the whole thing could become a huge
'automobile Internet', with vehicles warning each other - and their
drivers - about slow-downs, bad weather, accidents and other road
problems.
On a personal note, I really can't even begin to imagine the
possibilities here, a road traffic innovation, chat/P2P/file sharing
heaven on the roads, or a big headache for the RIAA/MPAA/BSA? It could
definitely be all of the above! One thing is for sure, you'll never
get bored in traffic anymore.

07/02/2004 12:54 PMWe can't quite picture WiMax becoming as ubiquitous and cheap as Wi-Fi
in two years, but Intel can: Intel stands by its expectation that
WiMax technology will be embedded in its notebook computers by 2006.
What will these transceivers pick up? Hard to tell. WiMax isn't poised
at the moment to become a mobile or fixed public space replacement for
Wi-Fi or for cellular 3G. But Intel must expect it's on track for
that. But remember that Intel put 802.11b into its first-generation
Centrinos and has only recently added an 802.11g option into
Centrino's successor....
