Skate Spot

Even though I haven't skated in years, my brain is still wired to notice places that are frequented by skaters or places I think would be great to skate. I've noticed quite a few lately, but today I had my camera phone with me. Back in my day, there weren't a whole lot of skate parks around like today. We would have to seek out places with entertaining terrain.

Thank you.

Gears of War 2 - Video Preview

Here's a clip from Gears of War 2 that was released yesterday. The graphics are amazing.

Auto Hybrid Strap-On

Here's a company soon to offer a hybrid system you can attach to any old car. Interesting?

 

Can they make a little less, er...ugly?

More rants about what's wrong with Linux

Continuing my argument about what's wrong with Linux and why, in its current state, it will never be adopted by mainstream users, check out this site about how to install a Mac OS X style dock in Ubuntu. I installed a similar one on my PC to test it out and it involved one installer and one double-click.

My favorite part of this at the end is where the author states, "That's it." Are you kidding me?

Apture

I've started using a service called Apture which allows me the ability to add multimedia objects within my site very easily. The hover-over objects are not intrusive and very handy for embedding information in my site. I can add previews from my friends' sites, like Seeglow Music, Aru Online, and Chezray. I can add embedded videos. I can directly link to information, like Wire, the band I'm listening to right now.

It's ridiculously easy to set up on your own site if you run Blogger or Typepad.
