MILITANTPLATYPUS

Before you scoff at the picture (like I did), read this:

Strange as it may seem, only seven times has someone ever managed to successfully image the solar analemma as a multi-exposure on a single piece of film. For those not familiar with the term, an analemma is the figure “8″ loop that results when one observes the position of the sun at the same time during the day over the course of a year. Due to the earth’s tilt about its axis (23.45°) and its elliptical orbit about the sun, the location of the sun is not constant from day to day when observed at the same time on each day over the course of a full year. Furthermore, this loop will be inclined at different angles depending on one’s geographical latitude.

I sent off an email checking on availability and shipping to the US. I don’t know why I am excited about this, but I am. You push the ends together, to flatten it out, and throw it like a frisbee. Mid-flight it pops back into a ball.

And just in case you were not clear on the possible benefits, they lay it our for you

I don’t know how far you’ve gotten in installing your mini-mac into your car, but if you are almost done, I have a useful piece of software for you. A custom touchscreen app, that allows you to control your mini without a mouse

Yep, keys are just too tricky, and this guy has a friend that is a doctor. Put the two together, and you end up with a guy with an RFID tag in his hand, which allows him to open is car door. See below for the interview and qt.mov. See above for the flickr photoset.

I will let the page speak for itself, but this is an interesting project.

So, I threw together a mini-page activated by a bookmarlet Called delicious linkbacks. Add the bookmarklet to your browser, then you can get a look at what del.icio.us users are saying about (or at least how they are tagging) nearly any web page with one click.

To jump on the latest bandwagon, take a picture(s) of behind your monitor, and make it the desktop.

The last section on ‘not authorized’ is the best part!
