This is Crazy!

Every morning I get a daily sale update via email from buy.com. I'm flipping through the latest deals, and I see the OCZ Neural Impulse Actuator. Huh? Say what? Buy.com has very little information on the product they have on sale, which made me really intrigued, so I went to the manufacturers website. The product was a little difficult to find on the web site. This is because I didn't really know what it was so I didn't really know where to look for it. I finally found it here. They say yo can use it for gaming, but it's not really clear how, other than being able to fire a weapon with the blink of an eye. I quote "Predefined profiles included with the software allow the gamer to develop their own nia—memory to launch the desired behavior of their character and shoot with the “blink of an eye”, without lifting a finger." Interesting, or as my friends in Miami say, muy interesante.

Maybe this explains it a little better:



Or maybe this:



Somehow the whole thing is kind of creepy.

Google Video - Corporate Edition

I got a feature update today regarding Google Video. A corporate video service has been rolled into the Google Apps for Your Domain service (this is the same service we are beta testing). We have been talking about a server to house our digital assets. This Google solution could easily supplant the need for a physical server. Our videos would be completely private (as opposed to a publicly searchable archive a la youtube). Anyone within the company could search for a video, then send the video to anyone vie hyperlink. Pretty easy. Check it out.

Mushroom Update

If you get a chance, go check out the Mushroom and the newly installed LCD TV, Mac Mini and wireless keyboard and mouse.

Is there a time wasting activity at work that's better than surfing the internet on a 42" HD monitor?

I don't think so!

Improved security for your Gmail account

From The Consumerist:

Gmail recently rolled out a change to its settings, where you can permanently turn on SSL encryption. Do it now...because some guy is planning on releasing a hacking tool to the public

Good advice.
