denise — Tue, 27 Nov 2007 21:54:28 +0000

Just got back from the local malls and have shopped all i can shop for my legs are hurting from all the walking around. Know doubt there will be some happy family and friends this year or atleast I hope so. There is only so much i buy at the mall since alot of times i look at a product price and name then go home a compare online the prices and see if I can not get it for a better price but alot of stores have BIG ssavings for the next couple of weeks you and I can only get in the stores so I went around looking for them today and found plenty of great gifts. Anyways now it is time to wrap them all up and get dinner started so write to you later.

Blackberry thumb ouch

denise — Sat, 22 Sep 2007 05:14:35 +0000

Well since getting my new Blackberry I have not been able to put it down. Writing to everyone I know for the past couple of weeks via text messages has been alot of fun and if I only could have stored all theÂ conversations via texts messeages I could have a book with some cool stories in them but then some people would be very mad I am sure and some embarrased including me. One problem with my new Blackberry is my thumbs are starting to hurt because of all the text messaging.Â I am glad I signed up for unlimited text messages each month otherwise I would have had one heck of a bill at the end of this month. Anyways needless to write I will be taking a break from blogging and texting until my thumbs heal up.

Off to the airport

denise — Mon, 20 Aug 2007 05:05:51 +0000

Well I am off to the airport this morning and onto my trip around the world. My boyfriend bought me a Blackberry for the trip soÂ I will try and do some mobile blog posts via my new toy, about how things are going on my trip. The GPS should really help me out alot in these towns I know nothing about or how to get around. I worry about my Europe trip the most, withÂ everyone driving on the wrong side of the road compared to the United States itÂ makes me very nervous, so I think am going to ride in taxis the whole time there. Anyways I am off to the airport getting there an hour early due to all the new security measures wish me luck.

Getting my hands dirty

denise — Wed, 18 Jul 2007 08:01:06 +0000

Have been talking with a few girls around here about launching a website based around adult novelties. For awhile now, adultÂ toy parties have been thrown around this town as much as keg parties. And most women that throw the parties overcharge on most of the toys they sell to party goers. Which is why me and a couple girls got together and bought a .com and launched a toy store called tantric toys. This website features thousands of adult toys and dvds including high definition and blu-ray discs and they just launched a video on demand service which is way cool. So wish us luck this is one of a couple of ventures I just started on,Â more to come in future posts.

New color matching technology

denise — Wed, 11 Jul 2007 14:45:10 +0000

Hewlett PackardÂ today demonstrated a new color matching technology that could change the way people shop for products that require color coordination, such as cosmetics.HP Labs, the companyâ€™s central research arm, has developed a technology that uses sophisticated imaging algorithms and mobile networking to match colors that complement one another, including makeup specific to skin coloring.

Retailers, consumer goods and other companies that require a high level of color or image coordination could implement the technology to offer services that help their customers select the right products for their needs.

The color matching technology, which is currently in prototype, builds on HPâ€™s expertise in imaging, color science, mobility and networking

This is how it works, instead of sitting down with a consultant at a beauty counter, a shopper photographs herself using a mobile phone camera and while holding a specially designed color chart. The person then sends the photo as an MMS (multimedia message) to an advisory service. That system locates the personâ€™s face within the image and color corrects the image for camera and lighting discrepancies.

Skin pixels are extracted from the color corrected image of the personâ€™s face, and then compared to an existing database of previously captured and analyzed images of skin tones of real people. In a matter of seconds, people using the service receive a text message response with a recommendation on the shades of makeup that are best suited to their complexion.

The technology can work with any mobile operator and on any mobile phone equipped with a camera. Photos demonstrating the color matching technology are available at www.hpl.hp.com/about/media/mobile_image/

Heard from the Google System blog that Google plans on launching a new service called iGoogle which will allow users to share their own writings, photos, lists and other creative efforts, as well as to give consumers personalised views of the Web through use of their geographical location and search history.

1. Photo album – add up to 7 photos that can be rotated.

2. GoogleGram – enter seven greeting messages.

3. Daily Me – type what you are doing.

4. Countdown – count the days until a special event.

5. Simple list – you can use it as a ToDo list, shopping list.

6. YouTube videos – up to 10 videos.

7. Freeform gadget – add an image and some text.

Thank God its FRIDAY it has been just a beutiful week here and i have been waiting all week long to have the weekend off to go out and have some outdoor fun. First I think I will play a round of putt putt golf then head out on the boat to do some fishing . Then get back on land and go eat out at my favorite resteraunt which has an outdoor patio. After that I figure a night out on the town clubbing with friends willÂ be jsut the thing I need. Anyways wanted to possibly get some ideas of other things to do this weekend and was wondering what everyone out there does in the nice weather comes?

Solar Powered Cellphones

denise — Wed, 25 Apr 2007 23:57:13 +0000

Seems that Motorola has applied for a patent for a solar powered cellphone and although it will probably not be enough to fully recharge the phone it will help for thoseÂ days when you just can not plug in to the wall. Should be interesting to see just how good it works and how much it charges for I would certainatly buy one when it comes to a store near me.

denise — Wed, 25 Apr 2007 23:47:48 +0000

Not sure when it will be done but when it is you will see it here first. Anyone know where the Worpdress mobile plug in is please send me the link.

Mobile web and connectivity

denise — Mon, 23 Apr 2007 23:06:46 +0000

I like the term “mobile web” and think the phrase Web 2.0 is played out for alot of us are already workingÂ on Web 3.0 lol but for alot of AmericaÂ @ home is where they will be surfing fromÂ even in the futureÂ andÂ with a high speed connection with huge screens in my opinon the mobile web to come will only offer better options for taking the internet with you as you travel but still nothing compared to a cable connection anytime soon in America via the mobile web connection. Sure speeds will increase but American phones still do not even recognize or scan for QR Codes. I still like to connect to the internt via my laptop although I have a cellphone and PSP that connect to the internet but I never use them to do so. What do most people do when surfing the web via the phone ? Texting maybe using maps but what elsed does anyone really surf with thier cellphone? or better yet what do you surf when on your mobile ?

The 9 on Yahoo TV

denise — Mon, 23 Apr 2007 20:35:10 +0000

The 9 on Yahoo TV

The 9 is a daily broadcast on Yahoo! TV of best, weirdest, and funniest videos, photos, sites, and stories on the Web. Hosted by Maria SansoneÂ is one of my favorite places to surf every couple of days to see what is hot and whats not on teh web. The show is really clever and has alot of interesting little tid bits about the web. I also like Yahoo Spades but I think all Yahoo games are in need of a upgrade what is your favrotie Yahoo free service?

XBOX PS3 or Wii

denise — Mon, 23 Apr 2007 20:18:40 +0000

Was not sure which system to get the XBOX, PS3 or the NintendoÂ Wii after doing some research at my local Best Buy and seeing the three systems upclose and side by side I think the Nintendo Wii looked the best and was funner to play withÂ since the controller is way differnt then the other two. I know from a technology stand point Sony PS3 has the advantage for now over all 3 but the games is what I play and Nintendo has a long line of great games and I am sure is going to invent more as time comes. But was wondering what system you got or want and why?

World in Conflict

denise — Mon, 23 Apr 2007 20:10:14 +0000

World in ConflictThis is sure to be this years BIGGEST and baddest PC Game out this year if it makes it to store shelves this year. From what I can gather there is still no firm release date for World in Conflict which is based upon the idea “if the Cold War went Hot and Russia invaded the USA” and allows for up to 500 people to play in a game at once and even uses Nukes. This is a game you have to see so pop by and click on the trailer to see the awsome graphics.

Your movie and mine

denise — Mon, 23 Apr 2007 07:36:59 +0000

And ofcourse what is your favorite movie of all time? Mine well mine would have to be hmmmmmm…… The Matrix but to be real the two sequals sucked the first was the best and I dream my own sequals because like I said the two sucked and the game that came out sucked

denise — Mon, 23 Apr 2007 07:09:56 +0000

In the shade

denise — Mon, 23 Apr 2007 07:07:48 +0000

Have been relaxing in the shade and enjoying the beutiful weather around these parts lately have had time to sit down and blog a little bit more about me and my friends since setting up this Wordpress blog. Have had a hell of a time updating teh dam thing and it seems there is always a new update coming around the corner and I have nto been able to find a Auto update plug in for but I anm on the prowl. Anyone looking for a Wordpress blog should not try and start one on thier own but rather get a free one at wordpress.com this will save you hours of endless reading in the forums and asking and waiting for answers about setting up and mainting a blog you would host on your own. Just a tip for all you noobs out there just looking to get started blogging but for all you others go get you one and get crackin.

Dumbest thing yet

denise — Fri, 23 Feb 2007 07:28:06 +0000

What is the dumbest thing you have done online so far? Was wondering because when I get a little messed up sometimes I wake up feeling and remebering bad things from the night before. The dumbest thing thus far is not making sure the person i was going to meet really was who they said they were, this guy on MySpace had a picture of a hunk and when he showed up was nothing but and nothing like the picture, like HELLO i was not going to notice, I know dont judge a book by itsÂ cover butÂ whatever. So my question to you is what is the dumbest thing you ever did online?
