Scissors for Lefty
Some of you may remember Peter Krimmel from the “old TrueLink days”. Well, he and his band are making their way in the music world. Check out this video documentary on them.
Awesome job, guys! Good luck with the band competition.
Kiwi
I swear, this is my last video post for the day. This one is about the will to dream…
Some people got skills!
Who’s ready for a round of ping-pong with these guys?
Nintendo Wii Sensor Bar is not a Sensor at all…
… it’s an Emitter
Here is another video of Two Candles in place of the Wii Sensor Bar…
Google Maps an Invasion of Privacy?
BoingBoing has a fairly entertaining thread going on about Google Maps and its Street View feature. Apparently one lady is freaking out because you could see her cat clearly in one of the views.
Do you think this new feature is an invasion of your privacy?
Check out the reader responses when you get a chance. You’ll see image captures of people taking out their trash, toll booth operators, hotel lobbies, etc. 
fun fun fun.
Personal Info Embedded in DRM-Free iTunes Music
I applaud Apple for offering DRM-free music (and at a 256kbit sampling rate no less). I know none of this will apply to you guys, but you may want to think twice about “sharing” your unshackled tunes. Apparently some personal identifying information is embedded in the music files.
Garmin GPS APIs and Toolkits
Garmin is now offering development kits for the budding (or wilting) programmers in us.
The Garmin Communicator Plugin API is a browser plugin and JavaScript support code that allows developers to transfer location data — such as waypoints, track logs, maps and points of interest (POIs) — to and from a website and Garmin device. The benefit of this service to the retail consumer is that the API will simplify loading location data to a Garmin GPS. For example, on MotionBased.com, customers can quickly upload their activities (track logs) from the GPS. The cross-browser, and soon the cross-platform plugin, provide a consistent experience for MotionBased customers. Geocaching.com also integrates the plugin so that users can easily transfer selected geocaches (waypoints) to their Garmin device by clicking a new Garmin
icon on the Geocaching.com website.
Sushi Robots
If you love sushi (and I mean really love sushi), and you have more cash than you know what to do with, why not buy yourself a sushi-making robot? Some of these robots can make 2000 to 3000 rice balls per hour. Think of the possibilities!
Google Maps: Street View
If you haven’t played with the new Street View in Google Maps, you’re missing out! Has anyone seen the Google Van (and all its 360-degree camera setup) drive around the neighborhood?
