a day in the life

I know that this has been around for a while, but in case you haven’t seen it, take a look. There is some very valuable information here.

Susan sent me this today. I laughed

While I was bored surfing through the Apple Online Store this evening, I scrolled through all the way to the bottom and noticed that familiar BillMeLater icon. Apparently now they have the Apple Credit Account & BillMeLater financing. Interesting if you ask me. I never thought I would see a company like Apple use a financing service like BillMeLater.

Ripped from Engadget:

SoniCoumn is an interactive sound installation that can be played by a person’s touch. The installation takes the form of a column-like cylinder, of a height that does not quite reach the ceiling but just high enough for one’s reach. Grids of LEDs installed inside the column light themselves on by the users’ touch and emit unique sounds. When a user cranks the handle, the column slowly rotates itself and plays the light patterns of the user’s touch.

SoniColumn is one of my series of works, The MusicBox Project, the reproduction of my experience with a small music box that I happened to play a long time ago. The lucid sounds coming from a simple play mechanism stirred me up with my old memory echoed with them. I am pleasantly and cautiously reproducing this happy experience with a small toy which was not sublime nor mysterious, but simple and easy.

Now this is freaking COOL! I highly suggest watching the video. SoniColumn

With the recent exploit “Blackjacking” I am quite surprised that RIM hasn’t considered something like this from the start. Blackjacking is, of course, really only an exploit for Blackberry Enterprise Server users, so standard BIS users need not worry. While I understand this is considered an exploit, I feel like it would be really useful to have a feature on the Blackberry where users could connect their laptop to their Blackberry (via USB or Bluetooth), and use the DUN capabilities to establish a secured link back to the internal network. Verizon already allows their users to connect their devices to their laptops and use the speed of the EV-DO network to dial up, why not take this a step further? Work on it RIM!

This is a parody of the Apple/PC Ads for Nintendo Wii and PS3. Hahaha

Thanks Matt
