By James Allan Brady on Monday, Mar 17th 2008 No Comments

I am easily distracted by bright shiny things, and this player’s entire interface is invisible underneath the shiny why exterior until the buttons light up. Its not a new tactic for Samsung, but this is a new player for Samsung, and it hasn’t even been released to the public yet, I don’t think.

Codename Splinter: it’s a wooden car some graduate students are working on

By James Allan Brady on Tuesday, Dec 18th 2007 3 Comments

Clearly I haven’t been alone all these years in wondering why we don’t make cars out of wood as some graduate students are actually going to give it a go. I can imagine some logistical problems such as the density of wood, the ease with which it breaks, and its lack of ability to stand up to the elements on its own, but I think they can figure something out.
