Like listening to a miror

I've been having a hard time finding my way after closing icogs. Mainly because I am very insecure at the moment. I feel I have screwed up icogs and I messed up a big project at the end of last year and David, my current boss, has been more then patient with me. Although I have been making jokes about being dyslexic for many years (thanks James ;-) ) listening to Patricia talking on the Daily Source Code episode 748 was a real eye opener.

I do score 15/20 on this test so I guess it's official, I have dyslexia ...

Mashups

I've always loved mashups, but this must be one of the best.

And the video is awsome!

Robots are coming and ...

... They are getting closer and closer to what we see on sci fi.

 

I've been showing this to so many people that I might as wel put it up here too, very impresive.

Thany you DARPA. To bad it's not a sweet pet instead of some miletary machine ... :-(

But some robots are there to make our pets happy.

Original advertising ...

I hope you all know hugh macleod ...

He's a blogger and Cartoonist at www.gapingvoid.com and a regular on podcasts such as the Gillmore gang.  

He's been working with South African wine make Stromhoek, designing their labels and now doing a roadtrip with them, going to Tesco's all over the UK to draw Valentine cards on the spot and promote their Valentine Rosé.

I just like the idea and hope it' a succes ...

Fast? ... this is fast!

I was talking about going fast yesterday in France. I have to admit I used to brake traffic rules from time to time in the past and once took my old bike over 270kph. If you want to know what that feels like, check this guy out:

The show

For those of you who haven’t discoverded Ze Frank yet, check out his show, aptly called "the show"

Click on the big baby to see him in action.

I particullarly like his comments on our mate Bill and his Foundation, something about having the right experience to go and fight Virusses ... have a look I’can’t say it the way he does!

I’ve heard him do his thing during PopTech, but this time around he made it all the way to Gillmor Daily


PS: check out his definition of a terorist in the eposide of 21/06/06 : "Terrorists are desperate assholes who see no institutionalised recourse to address their grievances so they resort to random acts of violence in order to instil fear in the general population" ... "That's messed up ... "
anyway watch it, sounds funnier then it reads.

European cultural institutions ...

Winner of Eurovision 2006 ...


Do I sound old if I say, what’s the world coming to ...


Or should I say something utterly biased as "there were probably a lot of Germans voting"

Or maybe being second on everyone’s list is better then being first in your own country.

Anyway, 2006 does not look like a great cometitive year for Belgium,
No place in the Eurosong final
No place in the World cup
...

Thank got I’m not going to lose a second sleep over any of this stuff ...

Geek Fashion

Memories from the past ... when I used to go to work in suite and tie.

I have a nice collection of Pink shirts (no not pink shirts, shirts made by Thomas Pink) but I was surprised to see them on Engadget. What is happening? Are Geeks becoming fashion conscious or are the fashionable becoming geekish ....
