I found this footage of a very interesting way to communicate with your digital life.

presented by Nokia Labs, I bet we will see such devices in the very near future… (2010 sounds like a great time to release such products).

I found this movie trailer online and thought of sharing it. :D

UPDATE: Found this piece about the movie on Khaleej Times, since I have been noticing that this video is hitting hyper-viral everywhere.

I use a free iPhone app called Shazam which helps you find a song that is playing through any audio output.

The company offer many ways to get Shazam, you can get it on iPhone, iPod touch, Blackberry, Android, FaceBook, or any mobile phone (only available in the UK).

Now if you want to know how Shazam does its magic, then you should go through this PDF research that explains the technology behind it.

Just installed Snow Leopard on my MBA.

Trying to figure what are the main differences, but I guess it’s too early to tell.

And if anyone is wondering I got it from Jeddah.

UPDATE: Playing with QuickTImeX is amazing it can record the screen while you’r doing something on it, Free screen-cast anyone… COOL :D

UPDATE 2: I found this Link that has Snow Leopard Top 10 Tips.

Just bought 3 new audio books.

Picture 1.png

Brave New World which I already own as a paperback.

Another book I own as a paperback and still got it as an audio book was Blink.

The third book is The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, 25th Anniversary Edition.
So this will guarantee hours of fun and education. :D
