Last week while visiting the Milan Bicycle Fair I saw this guy hopping from tube to tube on a mountain bike (1MB WMV). I kept thinking about was how his jaw would rip apart from his head if he fell between the bars… Anyway, it’s just plain cool to know someone can master his craft like this.

If you need a short 10 minute vacation head on to Tim Mckenna’s website and adore the beautiful beaches that we are missing while stuck to our desks.

Mixing art, mathematics, 3D printing, and casting Bathsheba Grossman comes up with pretty amazing pieces. Forget your high school geometry, this is a lot more fun!

And you thought that with the extra time one spends being checked at the airport we are safer… Think again, or rather look at the FBI’s guide to concealable weapons.

I am not a big fan of football, but I would love to see these guys play… Voetbaltruc has an excellent selection of videos featuring tricks and ground moves with a football. Maradona started out doing tricks like these in football half times.

Life and Death

2004/09/16

Almost everyone would like to know how long they are going to live. I know I do; it would give me some sort of perspective on my time wasting… I’d probably need an antidepressant addiction to cope with my upcoming death. Anyway, hop on to Living to 100, fill in the questionnaire and it’ll average an expectancy for you. Hell, it told me I’d live to 85.7, which I’ll make sure I cut in half when i can afford a Porsche Turbo!

Maxthon vs. Firefox

2004/09/16

I was happily using Maxthon for more than a year (it was then known as MyIE2) and suddenly it started giving me trouble with Gmail. Everyone is talking about Firefox, so I download it, use it for two months…

Now for the verdict:

Both browsers have tabbed browsing, pop-up blocking, and plugins.
Trying to set up all this in Firefox can be time consuming… In it’s default form Firefox is too simple. You need to spend time with it in order to get some extensions working. On the other hand Maxthon has all this setup by default. And I’ll tell you: Once you use superdrag and drop and mouse gestures , you can’t live without them (Firefox has them too). I also noticed Maxthon being faster (and yes, I tweaked Firefox a lot). This has probably a lot to do with Maxthon being a shell. It is not a browser…It works on top of IE.

That being said the new version of Maxthon works perfectly with Gmail, and I am happy I am back. Now I can surf the web without having to think about the browser.

Ohhh, and security? After installing SP2 I ran a series of security test and Maxthon scored as well as Firefox. Go get it.
