Re: Why We Drive The Way We Do
Category: Automotive

Sarah sent me a link to a book called Traffic: Why We Drive the Way We Do (and What It Says About Us). Haven't read it, but i scanned the Q&A on Amazon's page. This quote caught my eye:

Drivers all tend to think they are better than average.

5 For "Murdered Out" On Google
Category: Web, HTML, Tech

Murdered Out IV

My photo on Flickr of a flat black murdered-out Beetle i saw in DC is currently in the 5 spot when you Google "murdered out."

It was at the top of my Flickr stats, and half the links came from Google. So i image searched for "murdered out" figuring it might show up there. But it didn't. Then i clicked over to the regular Google results page, and was surprised to see it right there on the first page.

The Beetle didn't have tinted windows as the Urban Dictionary definition explains, but neither did the Harley next to it. Check out the rest of my Murdered Out set on Flickr.

Murdered Out III

Props to Rob & Big for bringing the term "murdered out" into our lives.

Randy Pausch On Time Management
Category: Life

Find Make 80 minutes to watch Randy Pausch’s lecture on time management. He declares time is the only commodity that matters. I’d say it’s worth a little over an hour to listen to his advice. Some of it is academic- and office-related, but the concepts can be applied elsewhere.


"Time Management" by Randy Pausch, November 2007 [via Lifehacker].

Almost everyone i know suffers from "time famine"—i’m terrible at managing my own time and not having enough of it to do what i want and need to do every day. And i’m never going to get back that wasted time; the only thing i can do is make better use of my time going forward. The professor covers all kinds of time management tips, providing plenty of great stories, statistics, and examples. Jump to 12:00 past the introductions right to the speaker.

Legendary Ending
Category: Movies, TV, Celebrities

FirstShowing.net explains why Robert Neville in I Am Legend was legendary: he was the last man on Earth and he hunted vampires. Put yourself in the vampires’ shoes and he is the antagonist—the myth, the legend. I never thought of it that way. The included clip of the alternate original comes closer to illustrating the concept. I’m more interested in reading the book now—the film’s theatrical release didn’t portray that concept flip. Or if it did, i didn’t get it.

Project 365
Category: Art and Photography

Not Quite In FocusI guess with a camera always staring right at me from the top of my Macbook Pro there's no excuse for not taking a picture everyday.

I even have PhotoBooth set up to automatically upload to Flickr using the Flickr Booth plugin.

Unfortunately, creativity will be stressed without the freedom and control of a PowerShot.

Time Of Death, 2:01am
Current mood: sad
Category: Art and Photography

My Canon PowerShot SD400 digital camera is dead. I did everything in my power to revive it. But nothing i tried would bring it back.

It mysteriously stopped working two days ago, and tonight's exploratory surgery revealed no problems or signs of trauma other than a very dusty interior.

I may research into possible causes and fixes; but i might just start looking for a new camera. Unfortunately, i probably won't be able to afford one any time soon. So much for my perfect record this year—only three weeks in, and i've already missed a day taking a picture. I'll have to figure out some way to get shooting again as soon as possible.
