Flokoon - a visual search experience
Interesting concept, but more alpha then beta.
Flokoon, a visual search engine for catalog data.
Video Pollution
Don’t get me wrong, I am more then exited about the pico-projection progress but at the same time think of all the negative impact this could have:- People missing their bus while watching a game on the projected building.
- Video advertisements being shown in every corner possible.
- Having to watch the video projection on a wall while waiting for my doctor appointment.
- Kids fighting over wall space.
All in all, these reasons just put a smile on my face because the positive scenarios are pretty clear. Microvison tried to capture some of the positive aspects of this product with their cheezy video demos.
Is Sprint getting a divorce from Nextel ?
Together no more?
Rumors are swirling around today over the future of Sprint & Nextel. Seeking Alpha is reporting that Sprint has hired Morgan Stanley for a possible spin-off of its Nextel brand. Sprint’s ongoing troubles has been creating positive and negative conversation material for the last few months now.
I never understood why the got together anyway, since both networks disapointed me as a customer:
Sprint | Their service can only be used with their proprietary cell phones - never liked the limitation, and after 1 year I canceled my servie and moved to Nextel
Nextel | I think people only stayed with it because of the two-way option - after just 6 months I switched to T-Mobile. Why? Well the customer service didn’t help my made-up mind, more the opposite.
