After lunch blues

Those of you who go out to lunch and then come back to an office environment know that the feeling of food coma-itis. It's the same as a food coma but intensified because the environment's boring. It sucks and now I'm tired. But I press on because it's the home stretch and life's bound to get better in 4 hours.

Anyway, surfing around, here some interesting things to note.

This dude ported an NES console. Awesome. MAD MAD MAD props. If he sold one, I'd definitely buy one.

For those of you interested in the new iPod (fifth gen, baby! w00t!), Engadget's posted a brief tutorial of how you can rip your dvds and put them into your iPod. I'm sure there are better ways to do it but it's a start. awesome... *drool*

Cell phone security's a serious issue, it seems, and people everywhere are trying to find ways to make your cell secure. The 2 new ways that're popping up as prototypes in Asia are the gait detector and the fingerprint scanner.

The gait detector's an interesting idea. I think it could work but it's not necessarily foolproof.

The fingerprint scanner, however, is much more secure. I think this is an awesome idea. Although I'm not sure i'd wanna swipe my finger everytime i wanted to make a call. Seem kinda... burdensome. Who knows, though?

Ok, that's it for now. To quote the great Edward R Murrow, "Good night, and good luck."
