Plays Pong against itself. While this sounds useless, there is one reason: The score always displays the current time.
Today, this is only a “technical preview;” the clock works okay but has not been extensively tested. It runs completely through JavaScript and it consumes some CPU-Time, namely about 10% ~ 11% on a 1 GHz G4 PowerBook. Of course, it does not run while the Dashboard is hidden and, therefore, does not consume power then.
In future releases, you’ll be able to actually play Pong.

Make and Share Predictions: Two Crowds
Posted by Administrator under other , rss / internet , websitesNo Comments
TWOCrowds is a social predicting website. Share your predictions with the world and see how many others are of a similar mind and what they, in turn, predict will happen. You can add your predictions about anything:
* Politics (X will be the next President of the US)
* Sports (Team Y will win the Super Bowl or the World Series)
* Technology (Google or Yahoo will buy or merge with Company Z)
* Entertainment (Movie A or Actress B will win an Oscar)
… and so on. One of the goals of the website is to see how good all of us are, as a group, about predicting the future.

Pod Stuff: Pod Serve (beta)
Posted by Administrator under Imaging/3D/video , ipod/iTunes freebies , music / audio , productivity / usefulNo Comments
from podserve:
PodServe gives you a place to upload, host, promote and share your podcast. PodServe makes it easy to start creating podcasts – if you can record an mp3 PodServe will do the rest. Also available are social podcasting and public podcasting.
Social podcasting basically allows you to invite one or more people to join your podcasting effort. For example, had Lincoln and Douglas had access to our Social Podcasting service they could have each added shows or episodes for each of their speeches without the need to coordinate their activities. They would just upload their mp3 to PodServ and subscribers would receive each show or episode automatically. Or lets say you have a ten member book club located across the globe reading ‘long tail’ books like Headhunting in the Solomon Islands. You can create a Social podcast for the club, inviting each member to upload their thoughts into the podcast. Each member would subscribe and by the end of the month (hopefully) everyone has read the book and listened to each others thoughts on it. Social podcasts can be either moderated or un-moderated.
Public podcasting – add a show or episode to your public podcast. Pick a ‘long tail’ topic or subject and let release your podcast into the wild and see what happens. Pick a ‘head of the tail’ topic and watch it explode. Sort of like a public chat room. Public podcasts can be moderated, but why would you do that to yourself?
