Thanks Pieter!

Circadiana: “If so, you may want to track the infant’s sleep patterns, feeding, diaper-changes, etc. Now made easy with Trixie Tracker.

The patterns will make your life more predictable, will let you notice when something goes wrong before it becomes too apparent, and will make childrearing even more fun.

Of course, you can use the software for tracking an adult, yourself included. You can replace baby formula with beer and track your drinking habit. It is quite flexible. Go take a look.”

The poor man in this video… I don’t think he will ever get over the trauma. He’ll probably carry this experience around for the rest of his life.

Thanks La Petite Claudine and Le Flea

OhGizmo: “It seems that the vase makers used long sticks to carve decorations on the clay vases as they were being made on rotating stones. These sticks picked up the minute vibrations in the air (caused by, say, conversations) and transformed these into grooves and bumps, much like what happens when you make a vinyl record. The Belgian scientists then analysed these patterns and extracted what is believed to be the world’s oldest known recordings.”

Pottery Recording Video (5MB mp4) – “about two-thirds of the way through, you get to hear about ten seconds of the recordings in question. It’s a man, speaking in Latin, and laughing. It’s kind of eerie. Think about it. This was recorded, what, 3,000 years before JC was even born!”

Engadget: “Those of us working with the Roman alphabet forget how spoiled we are with our QWERTY keyboards, even if they were originally designed to slow us down. People using non-Roman characters never forget that these keyboards weren’t designed for them, and have spent decades searching for alternatives.

The latest, developed by HP Labs India, is the gesture-based keyboard, which is actually a pen tablet that uses a stroke-based system to recognize characters in non-Roman languages. It was designed specifically to deal with languages in use in the subcontinent, such as Tamil and Kannada, but has potential for other Asian languages as well. The system was designed to be rugged, and to be usable by people with no prior experience with keyboards or the Roman alphabet. HP expects to license the technology to a third-party manufacturer for commercialization.”
