Brown, Purple, Blue, Black

Brown then Purple then Blue now Black
Thats whats happenin to my hair at the moment. I dyed it Electric Blue 2 days ago, and obviously expected it to turn black with a hint of blue.....but no, it had to randomly change colour everyday didnt it. Not that i'm complaining really seen as i hardly ever do anything on impulse, adn this being a first turned out quite well.

Could be that start of something :D Anyways no i'm on the roll i might just go ahead with other crazy-ass ideas. Theres no stoppin me now!

Anyways cant be arsed to write more today.

Bluetooth, ah the possibilties!

I bought a bluetooth dongle the other day and soon got fed up of file transfer. After the first couple of random junk videos and pictures were sent i thought "surely theres more you can do with a bluetooth phone and dongle"

Sure enough there was. Remote control of itunes via the phone, GENIUS!

After much searching i stumbled upon the salling clicker software. And it works like a charm in fact i'm using it now, even tho i'm sat at my pc lol.

Also earlier today whilst round at Ian's i discovered that wiimotes (the wii console controllers in case you didnt know) are bluetooth devices!
And with a bit of googling found some software (glovePIE) which allows you to run scripts making good use of the wiimote as a controller. And yes all the features like motion sensing / tilt etc work.

After using the wiimote as a mouse, using the sensor bar on top of Ian's TV i decided it was a good investment to buy just a wiimote and forget about the wii, seen as i found some pretty good games in development for pc (all flash based) that use the wiimote to control.
As for my own sensor bar, i'm thinkin of dismantling some tv remotes for there IR LED's as thats all the sensor bar is.

I shall keep updated on any more bluetooth amazingness i find.

New Phone and Amazing Weather

Amazing Weather
Originally uploaded by Gazneale.

Bought a new phone, after my last one (my beloved motorola L6) which i only had for a month or two, got attacked by the washing machine.
I bought a Sony Ericsson W810i, and what better way of kick starting its use as my personal companion. I put its 2megapixel camera to the test out in the snow.

Took some quite good pictures, head over to my flickr page (link under photo) to see some of them plus other photos ive taken so far with the beast of a phone lol

My day in pictures

I recently discovered a clever way of documenting my life using my trusty camera phone. I basically email images to a specific address and it posts them to a mini-blog in a way. This feature is courtesy of radar. Unfortunately you have to allow your friends to view your images. However if anybodys interested in sharing a photo blog of there day via radar then please email me and i'll add you to my radar friends (i can even send you an invite if you fancy signing up which you'll need to anyways)

Aside from the "my day in pictures" project i have been working hard on ideas for my current Interactivity2 project at college. Heres a screenshot of an idea:

Rustled up in a day believe it or not. I'm proud of myself *grins*

Welcome to t.i.w.u.g.w.u.d.u.y.b2

Welcome to "this is what when you don't use your brain 2" Number one is here. There isn't going to be much difference, its just me being greedy and wanting two blogs.

Apart from maybe this one will be less random and more of an actual useful insight of my life and perhaps contain interesting content and findings.
Dont hold me to this but i will try my best.
