International Delete Your MySpace Account Day

I just found out that January 30th is International Delete Your MySpace Account Day. What an awesome birthday present — I’m there, dude!

I’ve been thinking about deleting my Myspace account almost since the day I got it but always opted out of doing so because of the few friends I have who don’t have Facebook accounts. But by remaining on Myspace, I realize, I’m becoming an enabler. I’m giving those friends no reason to switch over from Myspace by giving them access to my Myspace profile.

The only reason I even have a MySpace account in the first place is because at my last job, we needed to test how to format our video player embed code on MySpace. I did find one actual friend on MySpace, but since my wife and I now have email addresses for her and her husband…

The sole remaining reason for me to visit MySpace anymore would be to catch up on news about Weird Al. And really, there’s not much reason to visit it for that, because that’s not the official Weird Al website, anyhow (though, it is really his account).

I’m adding a reminder on my calendar to delete my MySpace account on January 30. How about you?

Hello Kitty AR-15 Rifle

Hello Kitty AR-15 Rifle

We have seen Hello Kitty laptop, cellphone and even iPod dock, what about a Hello Kitty Rifle. The rifle is in pink and the “cutie” Hello Kitty is holding a rifle.

This rifle is 100% legal in California because it is based on an “off-list” lower receiver made by Stag Arms and has no evil features at all, instead featuring a fixed stock instead of the evil collapsible stock, a muzzle brake in place of the vile flash-hider, and a MonsterMan Grip instead of the heinous and malicious plastic pistol grip.

Polymer Vision pioneers world’s first production of rollable displays

Achieving a major milestone towards larger displays in small mobile devices



Eindhoven, The Netherlands – December 10th 2007

Polymer Vision, a spin out of Royal Philips Electronics, today announced first production level rollable displays from its recently acquired manufacturing facility, Polymer Vision (UK) Ltd in Southampton, England.

In less than twelve months the clean room facilities have been completed, the first complete manufacturing tool set has been installed and the process has been successfully transferred from Eindhoven to the Southampton facility. The first batch of rollable displays produced has immediately delivered functional displays and from December onwards volumes will ramp up to meet growing customer demand.

“Our strategy to use standard semiconductor infrastructure has helped us to successfully and quickly start up production in Southampton“, says Guido Aelbers, COO of Polymer Vision. “The result is an unprecedented pioneering step for the flexible display industry as a whole and marks the beginning of a new era of commercialization of rollable display enabled devices”.

Demand for larger mobile displays is accelerating as telecom players push mobile content and mobile advertisements to compensate for shrinking growth in voice revenues. The solution is to unroll the display when needed and simply store away when not in use. This breakthrough for the mobile industry is closer than many may have expected as samples of Polymer Vision’s first commercial product, the Readius®, will be shipped to customers before the end of 2007. With this step Polymer Vision is leading the industry of rollable/flexible displays by at least one year.

The  Readius® is a pocket sized device which combines a large 5” rollable display with 3G high speed connectivity for true mobility and instant access to personalized news and information. The Readius® is the first member of a family of future Polymer Vision products that will offer consumers large rollable displays (5” and bigger) in small pocket size devices.
