""Today, Lisa and I went to the Festitalia 2007 event at the RNA Showgrounds.


After a rather long walk from the Brunswick St train station to the entrance, we were then greeted by lots of nice Italian food on offer. Ravioli, Lasagne, Cannoli, BBQ Octopus and Pancakes were just some of the great food we got to sample - my favourite being the BBQ'd squid. Yummm.



I took a couple of snaps, which can be found here.

{mosimage}Lifehacker have an article today about a cool little app called ViStart.



"ViStart not only offers the Vista style eye-candy and transparency for XP, but also the highly regarded quick search function of Vista. ViStart was designed to be included in the Vista Transformation Pack, however you can grab a stand alone version if you would prefer not to install the entire pack."

Google"CNET News.com's Michael Kanellos takes a tour of Google's new solar-panel installation, now believed to be the largest for a company in North America. Kanellos toured the Mountain View, California US."
Google said they should have the installation paid off by 7.5 years with the panels lasting 40 years. How cool is that ... I definitely need to get on the solar bandwagon.

Folding@Home on a PS3

Posted In |

A mate of mine, mojodale, lent me his Playstation 3, so instead of playing games, I hooked it up to the net and installed the distributed computing project - Folding@Home. It's now happily crunching away taking 7-8 hours per work unit.


I was feeding the PS3 video signal through my iMac, so I thought I might as well capture some footage and make a little vid.
