Mobile devices are becoming smarter and more convenient.  The problem with that is they become targets.  And now that your data is mobile, theft is an issue.  But there is a more insiduous theft that can happen.  That’s because it can happen while you are holding the device and not even know the theft happened.

I wasn’t going to post this, I really wasn’t.  I really thought the first transformers movie was a travesty, running a middle road between appeasing the “older” crowd and the younger noobs.  Frankly, I wanted something brutal and more realistic.  Oh well, rant over.  But when I saw these shots, courtesy of Pink Tentacle, I just had to repost them.  Well, that and because I’m a Pink Tentacle fan.

DimDim Free Web Conference Software

By admin | Jun 12, 2009

Not that long ago, I posted about a really cool free web conference software called openmeetings.  It was a little harsh in terms of install, setup, and configuration.  The hardest part was scaling the product in terms of networking and QOS.  I planned on coming back to that product for more testing when someone tipped me off to DimDim.  DimDim is simply a killer free web conference software package.  Also, it’s hosted (if you choose that route), up to 20 attendants – and, did I mention free – forever!  Yes, you can download the open source software and host it yourself, but DimDim blows open the limitations of openmeetings.

A while ago I posted about a really interesting concept car called Loremo.  I was pretty stunned in that post to find they were purporting 150 mpg.  I think those numbers have come down a little, but still impressive to say the least.  Anyway, Loremo has demoed their prototype and will be starting production in 2010.  This thing looks sweet – I want one!

French English UFO Files Released

By admin | Jun 10, 2009

It’s interesting with all the denials about the existence of UFOs from governmental bodies that they have these groups.  Anyway, seems like there is a body of growing evidence that needs more investigation.  A lot of the reports are incidental and can be explained easily, but some are much more compelling.  And now, with France (translated) and England releasing their findings, US UFO enthusiasts are going to be bashing at the door.

People love personalizing their stuff.  And this maxim doesn’t stop with bikes.  Bike enthusiasts want to express themselves while riding.  You see the same thing in cars, so why not bikes?  Monkeylectric wants to change that with personalized led bike lights.  I posted about car led wheel lights before, and now it’s time for bikes.
