Every once in a while you see a piece of software that makes you say ‘wow.’ Well I came across a new media viewer from Cool Iris today that simply blew me away. Finding videos or pictures using the standard views of sites like YouTube and Flickr are similar to the way we have been browsing for files on our computers for years. Lists of small thumbnails, scrolling up and down, using ‘next page’ buttons at the bottom, just get in the way of what we are trying to find. This new way of visualizing content surely is a better way.
Give Cool Iris a try here.
I’m seeing more and more options for ‘the vehicle of the future’ these days. And the automotive X-prize is fueling some of the progress. Look at these examples of electric cars:
Microcar France
REVA India
BYD China
And if you purchase one, make sure you tell the IRS here.
