Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) video highlights

My first 2 balloon video flights

We launched my Canon point'n'shoot camera with a handful of helium balloons. Here's the video that little Canon caught. Too bad it was zoomed in so close.

I built a picavet rig to stabize the camera. And it worked!

A new QRdvark video

Hear all about QRdvark, the free Android QR app, by watching this new YouTube video.

QRdvark, the video

I've been talking about our free Android app that scans barcodes. QRdvark has been available in the Android Market for a couple of weeks. We finally got a video together that begins to explain what QRdvark really is.

The new way to rickroll

Rickrolling never grows old. There are so many ways to do it, like this video game version.

Barcode Beasties, an Android barcode game

You all know I love barcodes. Can't get enough of them. I'm not a game player. That is until I discovered Barcode Beasties.

Download Barcode Beasties from the Android Market, scan a barcode to configure your monster, and then FIGHT!

Unlike older barcode games, Barcode Beasties doesn't require a special handheld device or decks of cards you have to buy. Use what ya got and play with barcodes. What could be better than that?!

Microsoft Street Slide, new and I want it!

A great way to navigate panoramic views using a more intuitive UI. It's like pressing your face against the car window while someone drives you down the street.

How odd they've ported it to the iPhone. Why not the Kin? And how soon before Google Maps not only copies this but does them one better with a new and improved street view?

QRdvark Android QR app dev notes

No sooner than QRdvark hits 1000 installs in 10 days than we release dev notes highlighting the API. QRdvark uses intents and can be called from other Android apps.

I-Dose. Another word for binaural beats

Oklahoma parents have been warned that their kids are getting high listening to digital drug music found on the internet. They call it "i-dose". The rest of us call these "binaural beats".

I've been providing free binaural beat MP3 files on JetCityOrange for years now. People from all over the world download and use them. They're mediTAtion aids, not mediCAtion.

My response? To write a web page about i-dosing.

DIY Satellites for only $8000!

Santa, I've been a really good boy so far this year. And we're already more than half through 2010. So if I keep it up can I have a homebrew satellite kit for Christmas?

I know it's $8000 but it's all I want. I don't need any other presents. And I know I'm Buddhist, not even a plain vanilla, non-church going Christian. Did I mention I've been a good boy?

iPhone 4 Spoof Video

Whether you have an iPhone or not, this video is hilarious.

If I only spoke Chinese...

8-bit Fonts Anyone?

Sometimes you just gotta have 8-bit fonts. I feel ya.
