Well, not really “new”.

My buddy sent me this screen shot and thought it was worth posting.

If you haven’t played this yet, I highly recommend it!

I usually don’t post too much about things not related to my blog, but you know what, who cares, it’s my blog, I’ll post what I want.

One of my friends sent me this article about this song called “Little Bit” by Lykke Li.

It took a second round of listening to it to form an opinion on it, and I have to say I really, really like this song. Great stuff.

Enjoy~

Digg This!

Well, *cough* another extended period without posting. I’ve been super busy!

I will be attending the Flashforward Boston conference next week, my first time to go, I’m excited!

I intend on being a sponge in the area of flash developer/design work flows & AS2-AS3 transitioning in particular.

Here’s my schedule:

Day One:

Day Two:

Day Three:

w00t!

This has pretty much been a far-fetched concept that I have been wanting to see done with flash for a long time.

In AS2, it is pretty much not even worth trying, But this beautiful flash 3D demo by John Grden demonstrates the potential for the future of 3D and Flash.

This certainly opens the door for several oncoming ideas, 2007 will be an interesting time for flash. can’t wait to see more!

Update: Check out this SWEET Bumpmapping demo made with papervision3d.

So last month I built my dream machine.

I have been planning to do this for roughly 2 years now. So I finally saved up and took the leap.

Here are the specs:

• Case: Silverstone TJ09
• Motherboard: Intel Bad Axe 2 (LOVE this!!)
• CPU: Core 2 Duo E6600 Conroe 2.4GHz 4M shared L2 Cache
• Hard Disks: 4 X 250GB 7200RPM 16MB Cache, result: I set 2 to a RAID1 configuration for a default backup of OS installation. 2 Additional drives set up standardly.

  Update: I actually ended up reconfiguring my RAID to a RAID10 configuration (2 stripe + 2 mirror). The results are outstanding.

• Total available disk space: 750GB 500GB
• Fans: CPU: VIGOR GAMING CLT-M2I 92mm, 2 top dial-controlled 120mm fans, 1 front intake 120mm fan, 1 rear exhaust 120mm fan.
• Video Card: ATI Radeon X1950XTX 512MB (not multi-gpu, I dont see how a performance increase would be possible!!)
• Sound Card: XtremeGamer Fatal1ty Pro (I know my motherboard is a better sound unit, not to mention it has 8.1 channel audio, I just wanted something separate from on-board)
• TV Tuner Card: ATI All-in-Wonder 650
• PSU: ThermalTake 700W

Those are really all that are worth mentioning, I am using my old dvdrw & floppy drives, nothing special about them.

Now, here is some pics of my rig! I should also mention; I just realized I am not great at taking photos! That or for the life of me I can not seem to fix the horrible common blur problem I am having with my camera. Anyway, enjoy!
