The Gigapixel Camera

If you haven't seen this before, it's pretty cool. It's actually a
4 Gigapixel Camera, compared to the current 2-24 Megapixel cameras. For you non-math geeks, 4 Gigapixels = 4000 Megapixels...

Now if you have a digital camera, have you zoomed in and noticed it gets blurry? Imagine zooming in to 0.05% of the original picture, and it's still clear! Take a look at the Image Gallery, it's just awesome.

Here is my favorite.

Happy New Year

The New Year is upon us... Time for those New Years Resolutions. My resolutions are to write more often here, and to continue to try hard in school (ain't that sweet....blah).

Congratulations to Keeley and Rick on their engagement. Hope the best to you. And thanks Rick for your movie like proposal, setting the bar way to high for anyone else, and girls expecting even more out of us guys.

And since I know I will now get some flack sent my way for the paragraph above and the length of time that I have been with my girlfriend.....

Isn't she just the prettiest damn thing...

New Horizons

Since hours at the golf course are very sparse I have picked up a job at Golf Galaxy. I will be starting the week after Christmas. I will only be working a couple days a week, so I don't think it'll be too bad. I just hate the thought of going back to retail... It should only be till maybe March when I am expected to be getting hours again at the golf course.

Senior Project

Well finals will be over this week, so next week I will find out if it has been a successful term. And now I move on to my Senior Project. Most of you know, because you have had one, that this is fairly big and will take a lot of time. I am expecting it will, but at least it is a cool project.

I will be working with OMSI on my project. Which is cool since after we have completed our project, it will be at OMSI and people will be able to see it and play with it. As stated in our project description, which you can read at the above link, we are suppose to build interactive, communicating blocks... Which is actually a lot cooler than it sounds. I have found something similar which uses Stick Men as the display, instead of LEDs which we are suppose to use.

Anyways it sounds like fun.
