True enough, isn't it?

"Reticulating Splines"

"Reticulating Splines" - have you guys ever heard of this word?

It seems that i can't get it off my head since yesterday. I dunno why, it keeps coming and coming.

The interesting part is, the first time i heard this word was in the year 1994. I a young boy back then in front of his daddy's expensive superfast 486SX - 66Mhz computer equipped with ultra large 40megabytes of hdd, loading the SimCity 2000 game from Maxis. "Reticulating splines" were mentioned during the game load. It was in MS-DOS environment, and hell no SimCity doesn't actually reticulating any splines back then. It was mentioned during the loading of the game by the developer just because it sounded "cool" !!.

I think it did sounded cool, as i can still remember it until now.

First photograph of human being.

Well, this seems interesting...

Photograph below taken by Daguerre, in 1838 showing the first image of human being captured in photograph. It is a view of the Boulevard du Temple in Paris showing a man having his shoe shined in lower left part of the image. This is mentioned to be a very busy street at the time, but the method used by Daguerre to capture the photo (Daguerrotype) at that time requires exposure rate of about 10 minutes causing all the moving object in the picture to be not visible. Only that guy (which seems to be having his shoe shined) stands long enough for his pic tu be taken so became the first human being ever captured in a photograph. Epic.

The exact same spot today viewed via Google Map.

Interesting, isn't it?

Latitude's off..

Latitude's removed, since i'm experimenting my data simm card into something else. So friends, you need to call me to know where i am now.

lol

Google Map for Mobile..

Anybody used google map before?

I think it's great, but how come for such a great software, google doesn't incorporate navigation features within it?

Like the map to be auto rotate when we move around.. always facing the way we are heading?
.. and like speed indicator, the calculated moving speed?
.. and like tonnes of things that cheap china gps navigation got in their cheap devices?
.. and like latitude longitude being displayed so that we have some numbers to be referred to?

They can always make these features available, and can be turned on or off according to users, right?

I think i'll just have to swap between my garmin / mapking / tomtom and google map for now.

Em reciting "doa makan" before dinner.

Well, just uploaded another vid of my 2yo son.

Em's storytelling.

After 2 years, now only i found out that my camera is capable of video recording.

So here's my first test of my old camera on my 2 year old son.

Experimenting with location

Well, just experimenting with Google Latitude.

Hooked up my old GPS phone with gmap software, a little bit of tweak, and here it goes.

Seems fun (at least for me).
