I love the idea behind deepfish. Zooming in and out when using the web on a mobile. Its from Microsoft Live Labs.

I dont think my mobile can run this, but for those who can, try this out.

Wow microsoft memo story

March 28, 2007 by mary gilmartin

Fasinating story. Read this and this. Then read the memo itself. I got to admit I have been sucked in a bit by the microsoft pr and I’m more interested in microsoft news than apple or google (though I’m also interested in yahoos products).

From a developers point of view they are all great to work for, but microsofts just more interesting. I admire googles search engine technology but beyond that I’m not very interested in their products. I use yahoos email and I like some of their own products. I don’t really like or use anything apple.

I wish there wasn’t sound on the first page. I love the design.  But I currently have no reason to download. Not enough pictures. Maybe something for later.

I bought some Mochi yesterday. Tasty and I didn’t die from eating it. Lucky me.

Why did they stop doing that?

 one of the main points of trying to become a max-level Wizard on a MUD was to be allowed to create your own worlds and monsters. Talking to the game execs

Why cant you make monsters and areas any more? Wonder if they will start letting people do this on xbox live and sony home? That would be very cool.

Update: Lots of data structures I hadnt heard about. You then have to check them up elsewhere, but thats not a problem in google-world.

Split copper line problems from eircom

March 24, 2007 by mary gilmartin

Conn mentions how to get this very common eircom problem fixed.

I wasn’t sure if it was possible to get eircom to fix split copper lines. Apparently it is. So go bother eircom to get them to fix the problem
