the facebook moveon thang :D

 I thought the MoveOn thing was funny because its probably unnecessary, but jeez murdoch screwed up myspace by owning it, not that myspace wasnt screwed up with it dancing butterflies on the background, and now facebook trying to milk profits too fast, when zuckerberg needs to concentrate on his technology and more openness too(if he has aspirations of going toe to toe with google), before google gets its funky dance on, ever since microsoft paid facebook for google not to acquire them, imo, hehe

repub candidates mostly void of green goals, despite what you think they might say

here is one link to candidates environmental positions, I assume the candidates missing don't have much of a position on global warming /green conomy/energy efficiency
http://www.thedailygreen.c om/environmental-news/latest/Barack-Obama-green-vote-47102504

I should mention ron paul doesnt appear to have any meaningful goals layed out, either.

I  don't know if anyone knows the repub candidates goals, I havent researched it much, but maybe there is nothing to research.

the war needs to end, we all know that...

• mccain should shut his relentless lying war hawk feel-sorry for me trap, but at least he knows torture is wrong.
• romney said every word is directly from GOD in the bible, look, I realize we need freedom OF and also FROM religion in the US of A, but you GOD people are crossing the line. A strict interpretation of GOD with glowing eyes, means you put magic before rationale, and that is not good for policy. I think some of you know what I'm trying to say, and agree they act like that.
  
• where was the question about global warming-energy in the republican debate? or does that just get awkward.
• after mccain said, troops are saying "let us win", I thought, you know what, you got more war spin stocked up than bush, and we need to find out exactly how much truth there is in your war drivel, here is a quick link, that should do for now

exciting innovation in our digital future....

here is a list of cool things, I've thought of lately

• if you are using XP, and like to cut the power at the surge protector without shutting down, you need to turn off autoupdate, unless you are looking to reinstall xp anyway, which a great housecleaning idea anyway, so instead select download updates automatically, but I will install myself, that way you need to shutdown normally and properly, so the system does not crash, after you update.  Still you should back up all important files, because at any moment any of your drives could die for no reason.
• 22% and a few hundred coal plants could be taken offline if we switch to cfl's.  In any case, they are the smartest gift this holiday I can think of.  My relatives will get them from me, until they have replaced all of them.  The cfl floodlights are now about 3.33 each, bought in 3pack, now is a good time to start buying those in bulk,  also the 13watt spiral is the cheapest and best, they turn on quick, 8 for 12, 1.50 each, but the 11-14watt immitation incandescent is perfect on the eyes, if in sight, they are also 3.33
• low flow shower heads, also turn down that water heater to 120, only wash clothes in cold, not using the dryer is a no-look back for us too, but maybe your not ready for that, the others are all with nearly zero drawback, and turn off the water heater at the utility box before messing with it
• educational+blogging, and educational+vlogging makes for effective blogging, and the time is ripe for that, I think thats why desperate housewives does well, because it links related concept in a string, and acts as if they are part of a related theme of ideas.  There is plenty of room for exciting new video content, esp compared to what has been uploaded to date.
• I think 24" lcds are the sweet spot right now, I love my 30" for coding, and the extra space is pretty, but I have it on lowest brightness, and turn off the monitor whenever not in use, on low brightness it uses about 40-60watts.
• I'm still waiting for a wireless electrical box, and a phone I can control power to everything in my home, hurry up android, my wireless internet i turn on and off with a $13 wireless outlet wall adaptor, so otherwise the linksys wireless router and motorola modem use 13watts, which means it costs $13dollars a year if left on, which means I'm saving about $13 a year by turning it off.  Add up all the phantom enery in my house and you got 50-300$ per year saved, you can also always multiply that by 100million people, and you already got 30billion, I swear my heat and ac pump is using about 200watts phantom energy, that 200 a year, or 20 a month, what a waste of phantom energy, so I shut it off at the utility box, all, but when its 35 degrees outside, now the temperature in the house is floating around 63, obviously sometimes I cut the house heat, and heat a room only.  when i visit the relatives, by car, safety first though, i will def. shutoff the water, the waterheater, but I gotta lets that heater run, maybe 55, or 50, I gotta research, what is too low. so planes do 1.1, cars .8 and trains .5, so if your flying all over the planet, thats up there with the heating and cooling a huge old house, get rid of your old refrigerator in the basement already, mom and dad, and people across the street, take off your screens, and open your blind during the day, I wish my house were facing the sun.  To your credit though, when the sun is not shining, opening the blinds would take away a bit of insulation, and the sun weren't shining for 3-4 days, it is today.
• all this energy crap, your thinking, does it get more exciting, yes! think about it energy is a waste, and individual homes waste without any way to force people to become more efficient, we need a cultural change, as well as a project to go home to home, and make every home more energy responsible, require recycling already, you(city governments) know it pays.  So my point was inefficiency and energy waste is the biggest and easily drain on the economy, that can be removed by growing the economy at the same time.  Obviously its time to ban incandescents, and I think by 2020 we need 50% dirty-to-green tax, and by 2030 we need 100% tax, that means last month it was cold outside, but I still squeeked by with $40 house energy bill, so I would rather pay $80, how else can we get people to become more efficient??
• let me jump to web 2.0, how about an open-ebay, open garage sale.com , i could post a stream of photos of my old digital cam, we should all have a miniature shipping stating in our corner, so that no junk, goes unvalued, zwaggle, a smallsite uses zoints, bottom line , given all the constraints web20 inherently has, there is plenty of innovation to come as sites data can pass openly between more sites
• 3d worlds + webcam will be big, + motion detection too (think wii)
• THE LIST of near future revolutionary tools GOES ON, too bad the US, and a  good chunk of its voting citizens are usually too busy funding death projects instead
• oh and, for now, remember, safety comes first
• thats probably why people dont blog, they never have a free chunk of time over 20min

:D:D

what is a blog for, other than posting big images :D

got the image from the link http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/dougt/200705241200.jpg

nevermind what device is best, the olpc is a great price for great capabilities, lets just get internet to the people.

maybe we can call it one laptop per person, if its $50 in a few years x 4 billion = thats 200 billion,   the cost of spreading the internet to these areas, not sure.

:D

Testing an image attachement, and rich formatting in emai...

Do you see it? Well, if not maybe I should also try rich formatting, if this appears as right indented red text, then it looks like spam.

• can you see the bullet points
• point2
• point3, eh i still wont use these much. :D

Not a recent pixure, a couple weeks ago.
:D

What a concept! post my blog by email

I'm not sure how this post will show up, but if all is well, you can
post to my blog too for now, by simply emailing
davidlynch79.publish@blogger.com

toodles, this rocks, if you can read this.

:D

email TO kaneva about 3d + webcam concept

I believe you should make it a priority to offer webcam streaming capable on each avatar that walks around.

I would believe a streaming website would love to partner with you.

Even if your first cut, show a video chat room in the panel on the right, it would be a huge step, and simple to do.

Why do you not partner with a site like www.stickam.com

I wish you the best, but I see no reason, this could not be offered.

You simply allow 8 people in a room to stream their webcam. You have a panel on the right. Someone could even hack this together in minutes. If you queried an active list of users in a room, and matched that with active users on stickam, you could walk into a room, and it would also be like walking into a video chat room.

The next step would require more than a few minutes hack. It would be to allow avatars to display their webcam as they walk around a room. This would simply require calculating audio levels of each video user, per location in 3d, it would be very simple to calculate and adjust audio streams.

xml future...

ok, time for a blog, facebook is gonna need xml import and export, I'll say the same thing in five years.

the sooner everybody can get paid a cut for content, the sooner everyone will be happy. all content will be in a tree, ie xml, you can digg it ,  you will see ad corresponding to every comment, people will vote this way, craft legislation

whats missing are better tree viewing programs, im working on that, & social architectures

I want software that will track everything I do, every video I watch, and allow my friends, or others to analyze. I can always turn on off mode if I want.

lexmark x125 printer cartridge complaint empty ink dry problem error

every time I print something, I have to buy another cartridge, I printed tax return on a new cartridge like 6 months ago, now I need to print a rebate, guess what, cartridge doesnt work anymore, I knew it wouldn't , because it happened to me before, I just thought it was fishy, now I think it either dries up, or expires automatically, either way, very convenient for lexmark to sell more cartridges.  I don't need a printer, but if I did, I would think seriously about going back to lasers.
