TinEye - find out who is using your image
is an image search engine, still in beta & invite only. You are able to upload an image and find out who uses your image on the web. It is so accurate that it even is able to find images that are modified versions of the original one - pretty impressive.
Alien visiting during nighttime - The Video
Is this the video that is supposed to proove the existence of Aliens? Sorry but this won’t cut it, one peak in the window and we are supposed to believe. Please give me some stronger evidence, some that can be taken more serious.
From the Rocky Mountain News’ liveblog:
The film shows a window, reportedly 8 feet off the ground in a rural Nebraska town in 2003.
In the enhanced version of the video, a creature pops up in the window, looks around, and pops back down, again and again.
“It looks like the quintessential Gray, right out of E.T.,” Scheiber [a skeptic] said.
Audience members wanted to know why the creature traveled all those light years just to peep in a window.
Yes, it would be good to know why they didn’t knock on the window!
Spy on your competition - is this legal?
Imagine a site that allows you to search through the database that contains every shipment entering the United States, allowing any business to access high value contact information for each of their competitor’s overseas suppliers. And it is as easy as buying a monthly subscription. WoW.
Since mid-March, Apple Inc. and its logistics partners have imported 188 ocean containers of a product type never before declared on its shipping manifests. [...] On March 19 Quanta delivered 20 ocean containers of merchandise, described on the Bills of Lading as "electric computers," to Apple, Inc. Neither Apple, Quanta, nor any other company has ever used this product description for any shipments to the U.S. [...] Over the last few months shipments of "desktop computers" and other devices did not fall off, indicating that these "electric computers" represent a new product for the company rather than a simple renaming for their Customs declarations.
Evolution of Mobile Phones - sweet video!
Check out this slideshow video of all the mobile phones starting 1985 until today ( May, 20th - 2008 ). I have to admit, I recognize 80% of the shown phones as prior owned. A big slap into my face that proves - "I love cell phones", and can’t wait for the 3G iPhone Model.
