Historia de un letrero

August 12th, 2008

This is an interesting short film. It won in the short story category at the Cannes Festival, 2008. The title says “History of a Signboard” (transliterating).

The story is very clever and has a great punchline (I won’t tell you the story since it’s so short and I don’t want to give anything away). I love their music too.

Goofin’ Off

July 26th, 2008

Hi… I’m posting this from an iPhone =). (No, not mine unfortunately… me is poor *sniff*. Someone is just letting me borrow theirs for a bit.)

It’s pretty cool; still getting the hang of this keyboard, but it’s pretty easy to type fairly fast (even with bringing up the symbols panel and everything). It’s got very good predictive typing abilities, but it’s keyboard does need to be just a squeak bigger to make everything a bit more accurate (though I must say I’m pleased with how messy you can type and still get the letter you want. Definitely not something I want to be typing a 2,000 word paper on, but that’s not what it’s for, is it? =P

Now that I’ve tried one of these I want one even more (which is a good sign… means it didn’t disappoint me =P ).

One feature I’m wanting, that I haven’t found yet, is the ability to select text by dragging with your finger (or something that gives the same result) like you can with your mouse; anyone know how to do that on an iPhone?

(Hmmm… Just in the amount of time it’s taken me to write this blog entry I’ve gotten pretty fast at this keyboard, I might have to strike my previous comment about the keyboard needing to be bigger.)

New Design

July 25th, 2008

The new Infoshrew design has now gone live!

I still kinda like the old design, but the new design style fits my conception of what my site is a little better. At this stage the blog is pretty much the only thing on my website worth looking at, I still have not migrated all of the content over from my old site, so it’s a little bare; no promises for when it’ll be updated, but I’ll keep trying to stick it in in my spare time.

Let me know what you think of the new look and feel =)

Crazy Environmentalists!

June 29th, 2008

This is an interesting article debunking the myth of global warming. It’s written by John Coleman, founder of The Weather Channel.

He makes several very good points and explains why “global warming” has become politically supported these days, even though it’s been completely disproven scientifically. The article isn’t exhaustive on the topic, by any means, but quite interesting and well worth reading:
