Reflection.js
A neat little javascript library to add reflections to images. I can’t think of why I’d ever need this, but who knows. Also available as a wordpress plugin.

Playa del Fuego Pony Mosaic

Monday, May 22nd, 2006

I stumbled across a couple of mosaic generation programs today. I know they’ve been around for years, but I’d never really gotten around to playing with them before. I ended up grabbing a bunch of images from google, yahoo, and flickr with the search string “Playa del Fuego.” I then loaded them […]

I have almost 200 movies in my queue, most of which were added during drunken clickfests through suggested similar movies and stuff with the same actors. This really sucks, because I tend to get 14 movies in a […]

New Storage Breakthrough: Floppy Disks

Monday, May 8th, 2006

Hitachi Maxell has a new optical storage technology: a sort of floppy disc. The idea is basically that it’s a super thin high capacity CD. This allows them to put a bunch of the the little guys in a cartridge for massively large storage in a small space.
My idea is that you put […]

Comments are Back

Monday, May 8th, 2006

I’ve just set up Akismet, a SPAM filter for WordPress comments. I was getting hundreds of those annoying bastards a day, so I had mostly disabled comments last month. I’m turning them back on to give things a try with Akismet for a bit, so feel free to comment again. In fact, […]
