Casualties on Iraq

Animated flash map of Iraq war casualties

The animation runs at ten frames per second - one frame for each day - and a single black dot indicates the geographic location that a coalition military fatality occurred. Each dot starts as a white flash and a larger red dot which fades to black over the span of 30 frames/days, and then slowly fades to grey over the span of the entire war.

Microsoft Origami Project unveils itself

The secrecy of the MS Origami project in unveiled. After seing the leaked video, I was very fond of the idea of connectivity. Especially in the age we are living in.
 
It's a Ultra-Mobile PC. It uses a version of the Windows XP Tablet PC Edition. I've never worked on one before, so I cannot give a personal experience of the OS. I dont know if this gadget will be accepted by the masses; I personally think looking at the price point, it's a gadget for tech minded. But $500 for a tablet PC is very appealing, I would consider buying one for myself :-P

F1 season starts this weekend. I hope we'll be seing some action, like last year. I'm also looking forward what Ferrari's strategy is for this year. With Schumi & Massa riding their red machines hope they can challange the competition. As you well know the Renault's team are on the rise and its nice to see that Alonso received the title "World Champion" last year.
