Having had a few opportunities to play around with Microsoft’s Kinect camera peripheral over the past year (then it was still called Project Natal), we were eager to try the seemingly finalized version displayed at E3 (see the video below for highlights from our hands-on session).

by Admin on Jun.15, 2010, under General

The Atlantic hurricane region includes the North Atlantic Ocean, the Caribbean Sea, and the Gulf of Mexico.

Weather Pattern

by Admin on Jun.27, 2009, under General

I don’t like it…. it is similar to the pattern we had 2 years ago and suffered a nasty drought. Only time will tell but it isn’t looking good this month! Hopefully things will change.

What happened to the old 260 Site?

by Admin on May.31, 2009, under General

The decomm was long overdue and I finally got around to it.  No sense in having a large content based system for a few users!  I’m not sure where this is going to go from here but you guys are welcome to stick around.
