Wow Sony post day. Here’s a cute and fun video that disassembles and reassembles a PSP Go in stop motion. This video is all over the blog-o-spheres so I wouldn’t doubt if you have seen it.

A group of researchers stole the ‘torpig’ bot-net for 10 days. Encryption madness ensued….

Here’s the google techtalk about what they did to take over the botnet and analyze it (get ready its long and boring (an hour and 15 minutes) but crazy):

Stepping into the verse’ of the known, we try to change our concept of reality with technology. It’s a very weird feeling moving your ideals into a new plane of thought. Augmented reality is such an approach that you perceive extra dimensions on-top of your physical plane. Here is a building that displays QR codes that can be used for a variety of applications (shopping, twitter updates, advertising, entertainment, etc).

The iPhone application is not in the iTunes App Store, but is available to interested parties on request. The project is a collaboration between teradadesign and Qosmo.

Imagine yourself walking around the grocery store holding your phone up to every product for up-to-date reviews. Imagine going out to a night club, pointing your phone at a person  to view their social profile (“Oh, that person like’s cheese?”). There may be a time where you browse your favorite books at the library with QR codes. You could put a QR code on the back of your transportation that links to your website. The best part about QR codes is, you don’t know what you’re going to get. It’s like finding treasure (good or bad).

Waaahhbam! Highhhhyaaaah! fantom-stranger.com is now setup to use any form of syndication you can think of. I’ve finished twitter and facebook integration so you can get site updates directly on your facebook home screen or twitter page, INSTANTLY.

Ya want email updates? Got it. Ya want RSS? Wow, of course we’ve got it… we’ve got RSS to the max with feedburner. If you haven’t tried yet, you should try and subscribe. RSS is really simple to setup and delivers instant updates of what you want to know about, at all times, from WHO you want. The technology is so old, yet a lot of people have no idea what it’s even for. You find something you like, locate their RSS feed url, add to your feed reader (google, firefox, or Internet Explorer), and consume.

Oh and the last update, I’ve sped up the homepage considerably. I added some more caching and implemented cron automation to the RSS generated content. Nothing should lag on your first view anymore. It’s just tight like that.
