I came across this clip of Back to the Future Part III— and now I can not unsee it. From the title of the video, I had expected an idiot savant pointing to something that would be a clever self referential device, much like the Twin Pines Mall reference. Instead, it was a dose of Back to the Future WTF. Nevermind all the Oedipal overtones of nearly hooking up with your mother in the past; this one takes the cake. If you watch the clip again, Verne’s expression when we’re first introduced to him has a thick palpable nefarious layer of in-the-future-I’m-a-gonna-go-back-to-the-past-and-do-terrible-things-to-you, irrespective of his age.

The iWatch is not a Watch.
Tech sites have been abuzz with a potential launch of an Apple iWatch. I keep reading how such a device may be used, what sensors could be included in the first release, what data may be recorded, and who might have been hired to support its use.
As vague as these reports have been, one thing is clear to me. iWatch is not a watch and it’s not a phone on your wrist, it’s a sensor platform with a display. The only reason it has watch in its name is to fool you into putting it on. iPhone wasn’t a phone, you just needed an excuse to buy one.

Explore the World with the GeoGuessr Game
Google Maps have been used to create incredible systems that help us identify DC Taxi Cab Zones, the most dangerous roads on Earth, and the best times to take winery tours. GeoGuessr uses the Google Maps API to do something novel and fun by making a game of guessing where you might be in the world. The photo above is a typical view of how the game begins.

The Monterbara, later named Swedish Goggles, quickly became a common product in Sweden and eventually became “the most copied goggles in the world”. One of the main reasons this style of goggles became so popular was that by building it yourself you were ensured a perfect fit.
