Link prefetching is a browser mechanism, which utilizes browser idle time to download or prefetch documents that the user might visit in the near future. A web [...]

Bloglines has announced that it will begin offering package tracking
I think this is a great use of RSS. A few months ago, Ben Hammersly released a PERL script that did the same thing, but only with FedEx. It also had to do a screen-scrape and pull the information out.
I actually used it to track [...]

Is it possible to robotically construct a house? Maybe, maybe not, but Behrokh Khoshnevis, an engineering professor, sure seems to think so. He has even completed a prototype for automated building of concrete walls. From there, he believes a revolution of building construction as we know it is possible.

Ultimately, it would work [...]

Here’s something for the “boggles the mind” category. Scientists have now created scales that are able to detect weights as small as a zeptogram (10^-21 g). That’s roughly the equivalent of a single protein molecule (yes, a molecule, people).

The key to the scales is a small blade that vibrates in a magnetic field, [...]

When I first read that Matthew Mullenweg created WordPress, Inc. I was a bit skeptical seeing how it was an open source project and I could kind of see where he was going with this. However, after reading this over at waxy.org you just have to assume that he is doing everything wrong here and [...]

When GT4 was first announced it was also announced that you would be able to play the game online. Well when the game finally launched there were no options to play the game online because last September Sony said that the game would be released as an offline-only racer. What a crock of…
Anyways, the coolios [...]

Japanese fan artists are so amazing. I especially love seeing how they reimagine American cartoons into anime. So, look no further than these fun South Park fan arts.

First pic is an oekaki from here and the second is a classic one, I remember seeing these years ago, but it’s still good.

You have a blog and there are some goals you would like to accomplish:

With the release of the 4G iPod, Apple stopped including a dock in the package. Not really sure why they did that. A dock costs about $30 to buy seperately.
Instead of spending money on a dock, just make one yourself. Here is a PDF diagram with instructions on building your own Dock using card stock [...]

I have found yet another reason for me to get the PSP that I didn’t think of… reading Manga! One of the problems I have with Manga is that I find it hard to concentrate myself while reading one when I have a full fledged computer in front of me. I’ve started reading a few [...]

What a great year it has been so far for small tech companies. All the search companies seem to be actively scooping up anyone they can find in order to one up the competition. The latest lucky bastard is Urchin, a Web analytics company.
Google says they are going to use the technology to help advertisers [...]
