See the cosmic ballet in your own planetarium


This program is really sweet. I will work on this post later, for now just a description from the website itself. Only so much: it is well worth exploring, I just know you WILL enjoy it.

"Stellarium is a free open source planetarium for your computer. It shows a realistic sky in 3D, just like what you see with the naked eye, binoculars or a telescope.
It is being used in planetarium projectors. Just set your coordinates and go." www.stellarium.org

Eric Schmidt at Corporate Eco Forum

Eric Schmidt speaks at the Corporate Eco Forum on September 8, 2008 in San Francisco about climate change and what can be done about it. Amazing stuff, Eric Schmidt at what almost seems to be the unveiling of the next BIG thing at Google. Go take the lead, guys, if not you then who can? Take the power we, the users, give you and address the problems of the world. Way to go!

Google Video on your blog!

Hooray for Google! Its a deal: you let me put up the nice videos from video.google.com, I in return feature the Google Factory Tour from the Google Press Center that I found (well, to be honest it is a bit of a test on how well this feature works with large files on blogs). And that this blog, as well as the video itself is hosted on Google just goes to show you how nice people in Google are. :-) Seriously, Google just introduced a new feature to Google Video that lets you put videos directly onto your page. Isn't that nice? If the connection is not the best where you are, why not download the NEW Google Video Player , which lets you build up the video until it will play without interuption. And to celebrate this great feature a bit more, here is a site that features lots and lots of video footage from Google Video, fosfor video.
