It’s not often that I’m really amazed by technology. And especially not a WEBCAM! But in this case… WOW. This is a LIVE webcam from Nkorho, Africa. They are using an EverFocus camera that will automatically follow the movements of animals in the shot, or, if there are no animals, it will scan the area until it finds something. Also, it zooms in (A LOT!) to get AMAZING video of real African animals. If the image gets boring, the camera will pan back and scan the area for …
Remember Tom Green? I do… funny guy. He’s a comedian who might be best known for marrying Drew Barrymore. He’s odd. He’s funny. He’s done a lot of random stuff. I still remember hearing about him when I lived in Seattle.

I had more than 1.5 hours of waiting for my flight, and didn’t want to run my laptop battery down before I got on the plane (I like to be able to put on a …

Wow.. I’ve loved the idea of this technology for a long time… although I don’t know a lot about it, I understand that the big problem has been trying to get fuel cell technology to the size of a small car – for obvious reasons. Well, it looks Honda may do it again… over five years ago they “leased/loaned” five of the first generation of the “zero emission” fuel cell cars (Honda FCX). I think there was even a story in the news that after the five years …
