Inveterate dabbler in business, travel, gadgets & life

typoGenerator

An awesome tool created by Katharina Nussbaumer in Austria from an idea by Armin. It generates unusual visual images incorporating the text you have typed in. Ideal for producing business cards in my opinion. Especially since it uses the text to search Google Images for suitable photos to play about with. Ideal for those unusual occupations

ACOUSTICAL ART

These guys have to be joking. stufffing loudspeakers into 4″ soil pipe and painting them red! and best of all flogging them for over $2000. OK, I’m off to the plumbers merchants now to buy some of these T pieces

Bio Informatics

Interesting article on storing patient data etc her CHIME Events I like this “Health Records controlled by the patient may be the way forward, sidestepping some intractable issues around consent and confidentiality” which is central to the scheme Ihave been thinking about. Imagine having all your medical data stored in a USB key so you could update it anywhere and view the data at home etc.
