Not necessarily because you should, but because you can.

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

I ran across this today, and it made me giggle. I never really followed the radio show or the earlier TV series, but I love the current incarnation.

I’m joining a group subscription to Browser Cam, thanks to the lovely Daisy.

What’s BrowserCam?

“BrowserCam’s Screen Capture Service lets you submit multiple URL’s, choose the browsers and operating systems you want to see, and in about a minute returns screen captures of your webpage loaded in the different browsers and operating systems you selected.”

We have a group subscription at the Wise Women* mailing list and there are a few places left. For around $25 (£14.45/€19.64) (the exact price will depend on the number of subscriptions) you’ll be able to see web pages in every browser and on every OS and in varying browser window sizes known to (wo)man. Find out how your page looks when opened in Netscape 7.2 on OSX 10.4 - even if you don’t have a Mac.

If you’d like to join (*boys are welcome too), run over to Daisy’s blog and submit a comment in this post. Hurry though, because the offer is ending soon.

Aside from the readily available sushi and sake, and the advanced electronics that we get 3-5 years later, I present you with yet another reason to live in Japan:

Asahi robot bartender.

After dispensing it’s 6 internally-stored frosty beers in perfect pours, it will track down Sarah Connor.

Sweeeeet.

MPAA admits to unauthorized movie copying.

ON PREVIEW: Okay, so I lied. I couldn’t help myself.

Three things come to mind:

1. DOOOOOOO’OOOOOH!

2. Does this mean that they’re going to have to sue themselves?

3. What does this mean for all of the pending lawsuits, where the RIAA is suing people based on the intent of finanial gains?

So Apple was trying to be all sneaky and be like:
We’re expecting the new Intel-based Macs in June 2006.

But then today at MacWorld, Apple was all like:
Bla-am, suckers! Fooled you! They’re on the store now!

So they certainly look pretty. And they’re 4-5 times faster than a Powerbook. And it’s a dual-core system. And it runs OSX and *nix, and should be able to run Windows natively. But it’s still $2000 for their entry model, which only has 512MB of RAM and an 80GB hard drive.

And no comparative benchmarks vs. a non-Mac system, which is what they need to do to win the converts.

PCWorld (via Yahoo) has an awesome article on the 50 greatest electronic gizmos of the last half-century. Each item is presented with a breif description as to why it had such a large impact on the world technological culture.

Of course, you may disagree with some of the items on the list. I certainly do.
