AutoTwit

I made this: AutoTwit.

It let's you update Twitter automatically.

Write a Twitter post, and then schedule when you want to update Twitter ... hourly, daily, weekly.

Twitter == Pointless
AutoTwit == Automatically Pointless

DOH. Link was broken.

Wednesday Zeitgeist

Merry Valentine's Day. My wife and I will be enjoying tonight with a secret rendevous.

This week is l-o-n-g ... work has finally and truly jumped the shark. Very much over it and lacking inspiration for something else right now. Need a benefactor or patron to fund computational history. Any takers?

On with the show:

Rather Literal Love song:


Robots on Mars:


A ship for carrying other ships (a meta-ship, if you will):


And it can sink itself to get under ships and then lift them up:


The largest lego set ever sold. Over 5000 pieces:


Corporate jet traffic after the superbowl:


A pulse of light can be stopped, transported, and restarted again using a cloud of super-cold atoms.



Stephen Colbert rocks my world:


The evolution of life and intelligence on Earth has finally reached the point where it is now deemed possible to engender something almost out of nothing.

The Periodic Spiral envisions a remedy to the flaws in conventional periodic tables by illustrating hydrogen's ambiguous relationship to the noble gases and halogens while recognizing its relationship to the alkali metals; it also fully integrates the lanthanons and actinons into the design.

Wednesday Zeitgeist

Small zeitgeist today because I am a very important corporate executive who shall be in meetings for the next 2 days.

Kill me now. Please.

Universe Map

Crazy-ass computer animation:


Iran leader announces AIDS cure

NASA says Low Earth Orbit is crowded full of junk.

I want one of these so very badly. Hare-brained scheme for this year is to build one myelf. My wife misunderestimates my capacities in this regard.

And if I had one I would certainly play this:


Yes. Watergate Caper. You apparenlty have to break in and steal the secret democratic files. What a jape! I am going to make a game called "AWB Adventure".

Ah, Microsoft.


You are terribly embarrasing:
(via the BlandCanyon via Audrey

ReadyMech: free, flatpack toys for you to print and build.


I LOVE them. LOVE.

Off to my meeting. Damn it.
