Never knew they had this! Pretty amazing/interesting to just poke around and look at some of the lunar missions.
Working on a new site now because I realized this one was too broad and it probably annoyed a lot of people when I would post random stuff.
That’s why I have just decided to open up a new site “Nick Larson“, where I will be answering your web development, mac, and other tech related questions free of charge virtually 24 hours a day.
The really cool part is that I will not only be answering questions from blog posts, but I will be answering via live streams on my web-cam and videos as well!
So do you have a question that you want me to answer? What are you waiting for? ASK IT!
I’m sure a bunch of people including yourself has seen or heard about the new iPods. Apple redid their whole line of iPods with new colors, more storage, and better graphics/features. Also, we can’t forget about my favorite, the brand new iPod Touch.
Apparently this thing has the same features of the iPhone, just without the cellphone part. The other thing that struck me as being cool is how it is much thinner than the iPhone at only 8mm! The Touch comes with Apple’s standard Safari browser so you can connect to any wireless network (assuming it isn’t locked or you know the password). I’m really looking forward to this as it would be something great that I could take to class with me and mess around on ;).
One other feature that I am looking forward to is the Apple iTunes store that is built right into the Touch. One will be able to download music directly to their iPod and then sync it with their computer when they plug it back in. Pretty cool eh?
Anyway, sounds like an amazing product that I can’t wait to get my hands on!
Also just wanted to let you know that when I do get the Touch. I will make sure to post a really great review so that you can make your decision on whether or not to pick one up!
So stay tuned! I haven’t decided if I am going to pre-order it yet, or just wait for a little while. Either way, i’ll get that thing and be sure to let you guys know what I think.
P.S. Don’t forget to take a look at all the other new iPods like the Shuffle, Nano, and Video. They have all had a makeover, whether it be new colors, features, whatever! Not to mention the Nano now has video capabilities with a larger screen. Also not sure if you noticed, but the iPhone is only $399 now :).
Believe it or not, these robots actually play the whole game themselves, without human intervention. It’s amazing how that works and I bet the system for running the robots is very complex.
I would love to see those little robots play a game in real life
