On the really cool side, this morning I was emailed a 6 mByte word document. Why was it so big? Dunno. Anyway it was from my friend Bill Kovacs in LA. The story was about how REZN8, a company that I have done work for in the past had done a cool demo for the Microsoft PDC conference on WinFX. Bassically Bill and friends did a demo for the new version of windows that includes a NetFlix demo. Ultra-cool.
There is some information available here. Because of the size, I will not include the email from Bill here…
When I am in the states, I am thinking of getting a couple of LinkSys WRT54G wireless access gateways if they are cheap. Why? Well, to install a PABX onto. More information is here
According to Nature, GoogleEarth and GoogleMaps have been used to find roman-era villa in Italy. A computer programmer looking at his home town first stumbled on an ancient water course, and then on the rectangular outlines of the ancient villa. There are now some moves to excavate the villa to see what has been left behind.
Anyway, back to work for me. I have some things to finish off before my client gets here about 2pm…
