Today, I've had some time on my hands and I found a few leaps it is taking currently.<br /><br />I'm a video game nerd... so i find this exciting:<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Augmented reality</span><br /><br />there are so many uses for this concept in just gaming alone. This is one of my favorite:<br /><br /><object height="340" width="560"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2aDE5GcriHc&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/2aDE5GcriHc&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="340" width="560"></embed></object><br /><br /><br /><br />_______<br /><br />Probably, the largest directional push for technology is towards greener energy alternatives. We're learning to harness energy from <a href="http://www.pawindenergynow.org/wind/facts.html">wind</a>, the <a href="http://www.inhabitat.com/2010/02/02/gorgeous-glass-pyramid-solar-cells-energize-any-building-facade/#more-84101">sun</a>, and even <a href="http://www.inhabitat.com/2010/01/28/scientist-develop-flexible-energy-harvesting-rubber-sheets/">OUR SHOES</a>! Soon, if some people would move out of the way... *cough* <a href="http://www.salon.com/tech/htww/2008/05/01/disappointing_exxon/">exxon </a>*cough*, the last thing we will want to power our cars and homes is oil.<br /><br />_______<br /><br />As important as being green is, I think that space travel is the most revolutionary thing the world is working on. And soon, you can be apart of it:<br /><br /><object height="340" width="560"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/g_ROkapCj14&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/g_ROkapCj14&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="340" width="560"></embed></object>If you have a good <a href="http://www.space-travel.com/reports/EADS_To_Offer_Tourist_Spacecraft_By_2012_999.html">$300 grand pocketed</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3126628985291053503-6429658102077236962?l=dotinthecosmos.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Kevinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05655105648153874242noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126628985291053503.post-87450214204459326262010-02-01T13:36:00.000-08:002010-02-01T14:00:05.730-08:00<span style="font-weight: bold;">Starting a blog</span>...<br />This is exciting. I have been out of the loop for way too long now. I hope I get more readers than just my mom. It took me a good hour and a half to figure out what I wanted to title my blog. I even went as far as googling how to name a blog. That doesn't help if you were wondering. I'm just glad that this one wasn't taken. I think it might work well. I like the background too. I wanted something simple. Well, anyways..<br /><br />Stay posted internet. I'll be back soon.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3126628985291053503-8745021420445932626?l=dotinthecosmos.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Kevinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05655105648153874242noreply@blogger.com0
