The Future Of Technology

Smart Dust

Smart Dust


So over the last few weeks i’ve been watching all sorts of different documentaries on how humans will evolve in the future and also how our technology will aswell.

Some of the stuff seemed a little crazy but the more I watched I realized that this is all possible, possibly in our lifetimes!
Soon buildings will be made of Smart dust that can detect you as your walking to work and turn your computer on.

Smart Dust will be integrated into the road to prevent traffic jams, We will be able to re-write our own DNA, surpassing the abilities of our own “God”.

With Smart Dust being integrated into everything, It will be the ultimate Big Brother situation. We wont be able to go anywhere without stepping on tiny micro computers fused into the pavement, sending our whereabouts to a central computer, which is no normal PC.

It also goes to explain that soon we will be able to develop computers trillions of times more intelligent than our own human minds, How will they feel about us? Will we seem inferior to their greatness? Why would we build such a machine?
These questions I believe will be answered the hard way.

Personally no matter how much I love technology, believe that if we keep going down the road were heading down we will find our selves in much less that an earth as ever.

Go Camping.

Iphone Game Developer makes real big money, With good Appstore marketing

Until the appstore there were very few ways an independent coder could get out there and start making big money.

developer

Ethan Nicholas, Developer of Ishoot (one of my faves) has reportedly made well over a half million dollars and saw over $37,000 in his first day.

I feel his success is based on two things:

1. It’s a great little portable game

2. He took the time to create a lite version that was downloaded over 2million times, turning out over 300,000 satisfied players that in return purchased the game.

First off i’d like to say cheers for your clever marketing and giving people a chance to test the game out.

ishootscreenie

As a mini-review I give Ishoot a 4/5 only because ive only played the lite version, however from that i could tell the game is highly addictive, and has lots of different weapons to choose from such as stinger missles that fire one after another, or a cluster bomb that breaks apart in mid-air. The controls are pretty easy to get used to and each round you progress you make more money having more chances to purchase different weapons.

Cheers for the great game and wonderful success!

New Iphone Location Service: Latitude

Hey everyone!
Love how your Iphone knows where you are?
Now let everyone else know to!
Now to some people (cheating husbands) this may not sound like such a good idea, but for busy body socialite types it sounds like the prefect way to keep keep track of where everyone is.

It features Gtalk integration so that you can keep your status updated with your location.

Its currently available for Black Berries but an IPhone version should be seen soon.

So keep two eyes open for this one!

App/tip of the day: custom springboard with widgets

Today i decided put up a quick tip
for a cool way to customize your springboard and add some widget like icons.

As per usual your iphone or ipod touch will have to be jailbroken to download theese apps.

First open Cydia and download:

LiveClock: Makes the clock on the home screen animated (also needs winterboard).

LiveWeather: Displays current weather ontop of the icon (Also needs winterboard)

IBlank: used to fill blank spaces on springboard to create custom springboard layouts.

With all of theese combined this is my result:

Here you can see where the blank icons are located.

And the checklist is already very printer friendly, making it easy to print out and take with you.

Installing cracked apps or ipa’s on your iphone/ipod touch **Not Suggested**

Although I am against stealing apps for the iphone,
I am pissed they didn’t let me try all the apps i want before i buy them.
Because i have paid good money for apps i hated once i downloaded, so until i can get a refund…=D

Anyways

Appulo.us is a website where you can find all sorts of apps (illegal) for download.

There are a couple different ways to getting theese apps on your iphone or ipod touch.

If you have jailbroken your phone go to cydia and download and install installous.

When you open installous and let it laod you will notice you are at appulo.us and you can download and install apps right from there if you want (recommended that you have safari dl plug in).

Another way is through SSH, CyberDuck(mac), or IPhone browser(pc).

However you get files on your iphone is up to you, if you dont know how to get files to your iphone/pod ytou can easily learn from google.

Once you have a way to get the files on your phone you’ll want to plaace them at:
/Private/var/mobile/Library/Downloads

After that open installous on your iphone
go to downloads
And install each app through installous,
after each install you can then delete the ipa from your phone.

theese apps cannot be updated through the appstore and should only be used to evaluate an app.
For example yesterday i tried beatmaker, i like it.

Today i bought it, developer got his $20, and i got an app in know i like.

Thanks and hope this helps
