Painting, sketching is something that I just haven’t been able to master. Whether its on a piece of paper or the computer itself, I am bad at it and of course I have never really tried to master it but even if I did I can guarantee I wouldn’t be able to. Its amazing how some people are so efficient at creating art with paintbrushes and well, with their fingers on an iPhone.

Please check the video below to see a demonstration of the Brushes app for iPhone/iTocuh. Its amazing how well someone can create an interesting piece of art simply by moving their fingers on a screen.

Cell phones have evolved in the past decade from simple communication devices to mini technologial powerhouses, so is it really a surprise to learn that they might become even more interactive? This week, Microsoft Research will present a paper detailing two new methods for cell phone’s to transmit information: a hand-rubbing device that works by moving a small ball or nub back and forth and a finger-tapping contraption that uses a tiny “hammer”.

So why would anyone want to be caressed by their cell phone? According to the paper’s authors, the rubs and taps could be useful for family members wanting to exchange quick messages about common daily events— for example, a hand rub could signal “I’m on my way home from work.”

Still, I’m not so sure that this idea will take off— the researchers noted that their rubbing technique couldn’t generate enough pressure to feel natural, and I wouldn’t enjoy a strange electronic sensation every time someone decides to contact me. Regardless, the research does hint at future possibilities for cell phone communication.

While surfing the web (we have the coolest job ever) I came across a link which showed percentage of people that are quite dependent on the internet. Since internet is how I earn my bread and butter it is of utmost importance to me that I have access to it. But if it was for mere pleasure I think I could live without it. I will never know though cause I am not sure if I ever will be out of an internet connection unless I go build a shack somewhere in a jungle where there are no internet services. I mean you can pretty much have access to internet anywhere in the world.

According to a study conducted by Harris Interactive 65% of U.S. adults say they cannot live without internet connection. And the most saddening thing is the fact that women are more into internet than sex. Yes, it is pretty sad. I guess for the first time sex is beaten by another activity. If I had to vote between sex and the internet my vote would go to sex at any point in my life, I think. Check out the graphs below,

This is pretty weird! Technology is seeping into every aspect of our lives, from making a music video on iPhone to well, knowing when you are most fertile. We found out about this new service through Gizmodo that is geared towards women. BootyCaller is a service that sends text messages to let you know when you are most fertile. This service sends 18 texts messages (3 per menstrual cycle) and gives you information on when you are most likely to be fertile along with helpful advices.

Here are some sample text messages,

“Your fertile window starts in 1 week. Find out if your chances of getting pregnant are better in the morning.”

“Your fertile window opens today and lasts 5 more days. Stress can get in the way of conception so relax and get a massage, meditate, or take a yoga class.”

“Today is your last fertile day! If you get pregnant during this cycle, your due date will be on or around 6.25.2009.”

If you think this might be of any help to you go ahead and signup here for BootyCaller service.

Here we go, talking about Twitter again. It is just hard not to talk about Twitter anymore. No matter what we do we just can’t seem to avoid Twitter. However, today we are not going to show you a cool Twitter app or something useless related to it. Today we are bringing you something totally wicked that was created by Justin Wickett – turning your lights on and off using twitter.

So what exactly do you need to use Twitter as a remote control to control the lights? Not a whole lot ,

  1. Insteon switch that you write to a computer with internet access
  2. Use your cell phone to tell twitter what light you want turned on or off.

That’s it, pretty easy. The only thing I am wondering is what would happen if a lot of people actually started doing this. Imagine your twitter stream with messages such as “lights on” and “lights off.” I don’t think it is very practical at least not yet, but nevertheless it is a cool invention.

The title might make you think we are throwing some kind of spoof here but we are not. Microsoft has decided to get their feet wet into the clothing business. Microsoft is launching a new line of graphic T-Shirts called “Software by Microsoft.” This is yet another marketing tactic from Microsoft and well, one more way to make more money. Sell t-shirts and if the marketing through t-shirts works then sell products. Cha Ching! The t shirts will bring back the memories from the 80s so the t shirt line might contain graphics of floppy disks, DOS, etc. We will have to wait and see how well this strategy works out for Microsoft. Microsoft = fashion giant? Who knows ;-)
