Mostly touching on the subject of our Economics/ Monetary System / Global Resources… it got me. Please watch if for yourself and make your own opinion. I cannot encourage you more.  Join the movement on October 10th http://thezeitgeistmovement.com/

Why not exercise while playing your favorite game. These guys came up with a treadmill that makes your character move. It might not be the best invention but the way the game industry is going right now, I wouldn’t be surprise seeing something like this shortly. Just take a look the the wii.

Amazon EC2 Running Windows Server

I just came across this link a few minutes ago.

http://aws.amazon.com/windows/

From Amazon,

Starting later this Fall, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) will offer you the ability to run Microsoft Windows Server or Microsoft SQL Server. Today, you can choose from a variety of Unix-based operating systems, and soon you will be able to configure your instances to run the Windows Server operating system. In addition, you will be able to use SQL Server as another option within Amazon EC2 for running relational databases.

Amazon EC2 running Windows Server or SQL Server provides an ideal environment for deploying ASP.NET web sites, high performance computing clusters, media transcoding solutions, and many other Windows-based applications. By choosing Amazon EC2 as the deployment environment for your Windows-based applications, you will be able to take advantage of Amazon’s proven scalability and reliability, as well as the cost-effective, pay-as-you-go pricing model offered by Amazon Web Services.

Our goal is to support any and all of the programming models, operating systems and database servers that you need for building applications on our cloud computing platform. The ability to run a Windows environment within Amazon EC2 has been one of our most requested features, and we are excited to be able to provide this capability. We are currently operating a private beta of Amazon EC2 running Windows Server and SQL Server.

This is great news for windows programmers.

Google Chrome 2 days in

Hey everyone going to give another update on my experience so far with Chrome. Me and the guys in the office have been using only Chrome since it came to give it a good test run and it hasn’t crashed once for any of us and were all doing dev work so thats very positive. I also noticed that now i can use it as my default browser, params are being passed and loaded properly into the browser. 

Do to this new style of home page i even begun to love bookmarks which i never used before since typing always seemed faster. but with the ability only show my bookmark bar on the homepage and then hide it everywheres else its became very easy to click to go places compared to typing. 

Final Note, speeds are still blazing fast i havent closed the application in 2 days and everything is still rock solid and as fast as when i opened it. I haven’t been impressed by software in a long time but seeing this from the programmers side its forcing me to rethink how i will creatting applications because this sets the bar very high for what is now a quality, rock solid, blazing fast application.
