The last I’m Sorry I Haven’t A Clue was a great, catch it before the next on Monday evening. “Diagnostic - A Welshman unsure if god exists. Realist - A catalogue of bottoms. … Newcastle - To drop an atom bomb on Peirs Morgan.”

Day made, mind blown: it’s Portal in ASCII

Enviro-Bear iPhone game. You’re a bear. With a car.

To have been a fly on the wall at the Imageshack offices the morning after.

Augmented Reality stepping up [Jun. 17th, 2009|04:57 pm]
[Tags|, , , , , , ]

Couple of things out in the last few days on AR;

“Layar shows you what is around you by displaying realtime digital information on top of reality through the camera of the mobile phone. Just flip through the directory of layers and find ATM’s, bars, houses for sale, hotels and other cool stuff around you.” link

and

ARhrrrr! Augmented Reality Zombie and Helicopter Game “Our primary motivation for this AR game was to explore fast-action first-person augmented reality, where the camera controls and movement that would typically require a mouse and keyboard are handled directly by simply moving the device. Advanced tracking technology allows the player to quickly zoom in and out and view the world at steep angles, making this a highly interactive and engaging game.” link

And if you missed it, Google released their Sky Map app for android phones a few weeks ago - PR video here, basic demo video here.

Aaaand if you missed it way back in 2002, ARQuake (plus other AR videos).

Issues with Tor; "Victims of Egerstad's research project included embassies belonging to Australia, Japan, Iran, India and Russia. Egerstad also found accounts belonging to the foreign ministry of Iran, the United Kingdom's visa office in Nepal and the Defence Research and Development Organization in India's Ministry of Defence. In addition, Egerstad was able to read correspondence belonging to the Indian ambassador to China, various politicians in Hong Kong, workers in the Dalai Lama's liaison office and several human-rights groups in Hong Kong." link

WTF. "'There have been two or three reports of public executions of North Korean young people in major cities including Chungjin, as punishment for having illegally copied and distributed South Korean visual material' said Kang Chul Hwan, vice-chairman of the Seoul-based Committee for the Democratization of North Korea." link

Ah, so that's where.. "Statetris is an interesting game mixing aspects of the popular game 'Tetris' and geography. Instead of positioning the typical Tetris blocks, you position states/countries at their proper location." link

"A popular Facebook application that promises users privacy in exchange for opinions on their friends is acting as a stooly by offering the information for others to buy." Haha, cos no-one saw that coming.. link

Far Cry, Prince of Persia, free downloads (ad supported). link

Looks rather mind boggling, can't wait to give it a go for real.
