Just saw this video with an Android powered Motorola Droid which uses a Lego Mindstorms robot to solve this 7x7x7 Rubiks Cube in 38 minutes. Some impressive work!

‘Samsung Android tablet in August’

Martijn — Tue, 04 May 2010 13:12:22 +0000

I really love the Android OS since the moment I got my HTC Desire. It's powerful, easy to use and gives you much more freedom compared to iPhone OS. Rumors say that Samsung will launch a tablet that runs Android in August, and it will have a super AMOLED screen. If it is as flexible and fast as smart phones running Android this might just be my next gadget!

Breaking news causes Twitter fail

Martijn — Wed, 20 Jan 2010 12:21:23 +0000

Wow, within just a few minutes after a big after shock hit Haiti, the Twitter home page was showing the Fail Whale, and it still does now (more than one hour later).

A lot of retweets happening at the same time seem to cause a system overload. Once again shows that Twitter is being used as a news source for a lot of people world wide.

[update]
Twitter is back, but doesn't mention the exact cause of the outage:

... A sudden failure coupled with problems in switching to a backup system ...

Time lapse movie of 8 full days

Last week I posted the first YouTube movie which shows a time lapse of the first day of the construction of the 'Glazen Huis'. I've now finished a movie which shows the entire construction over a period of 8 days. Today the 3 DJ's will start for their fund raise against Malaria. I'll post a new time lapse movie on my YouTube account every day during the next week.

Using the pictures from the webcam of RTVNoord (Groningen, the Netherlands) I created a time lapse video of the construction of the 3FM Serious Request Glazen Huis (Glass House). Starting Friday next week, 3 DJ's will be in the Glass House without eating until christmas to raise money for the Red Cross against malaria.

Twitter and Last.fm

Martijn — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 15:21:28 +0000

Today I integrated my Quickies-posts (listed on the right side of the main page) with my Twitter account. You can follow my tweets here: http://twitter.com/elmartino74. Quickie-posts are now published to my Twitter account through Twitterfeed.

A while ago, I added a nice little feature on the site here which shows my last played track via Last.fm. If I'm listening to the track at the time you load the page, a nice little icon is shown next to it. By the way, Last.fm is now publishing The Best of 2009 lists. The second part was just put online.

This year they included a Michael Jackson special which features a really nice diagram (cllick to see full size).
