While domain parking is a popular method of generating income, sometime the results can be really foul. The way this domain has been used is fairly distasteful. However you weigh in on this whole situation, I think either side would be fairly disgusted.
You have got to love performance art when it is so functional. This clock by Maarten Baas, is hand drawn for every hour and minute of the day. The cycle was recorded once and then played out forever through this clock with a LCD display in it. Take a look...

Over the New Year holiday we were down in the Santa Cruz area for some relaxation. While in Aptos, we were walking by the large concrete ship attached to a pier. I remembered seeing this as a child, but I never knew the exact story about it, so I did some research on the web (ok, I just googled it and came up with the info), and found Sandy Lydon's website with tons of odd history in the Santa Cruz area. The ship turned out to be the S.S. Palo Alto, which has a long and storied history. I knew a little bit about Liberty Ships made of concrete, but I found out way to much random info at Mr. Lydon's website.

After posting about the cellular upgrade in the BART Transbay Tube, I decided to check out the service for myself. Using a Sprint 3G data adapter, I was able to keep a decent signal from the West Oakland BART station to the Embarcadero BART station in San Francisco without dropping a connection. What is somewhat ironic here, is that the service under the water was better than in Lake Merritt Station, which is station closest to BART HQ!



It looks like the One Laptop per Child team may beat Apple at the tablet game. Take a look at these sweet concept demo pictures of the OLPC XO-3 tablet.

It has finally happened. Oh happy day! Four wireless carriers turned on their cellular coverage in the BART Transbay tube, which goes under the San Francisco Bay. Now people will have more ways to annoy each other while hurtling at 70 miles per hour under water of the bay. With the recent issues with the Channel Tunnel in the UK/France, it is nice to have a bit more communications infrastructure in place for a piece of mind.
