Need A Toilet? There’s An App For That!

Cloo - The app to find a nice, clean, friendly toilet in the city.

CLOO' is based on one simple truth— we all have to pee. Though in urban cities finding a clean, available restroom is difficult & frustrating. That’s where CLOO' comes in.

CLOO' is a community of registered users who choose to share their bathrooms and make city-living easier, while earning a small profit. Using social media connections, CLOO' shows what friends you have in common with the host, turning a stranger’s loo into a friend of a friend’s loo.

Swarmanoid’s Roll Out!!!

These are very kool! Almost like some real life Transformers. Swarminoid's roll out!

the Swarmanoid developed by Dr. Marco Dorigo is an amazing demonstration of robotic team work. Swarmanoid uses a group of different robots to accomplish their goals, but these robots are divided into classes each with their own special skills. Their heterogenius makeup and redundant nature means that Swarmanoid is designed to be better and more reliable than individual robots or homogenius swarms.

Let’s run through the cast: There’s the spy, eye-bot, which can hover and attach to ceilings. Using its cameras, eye-bot tracks down the target and sends the intelligence to the rest of the team. With this information, rolling foot-bots create a ground-based network based off eye-bot intelligence. To complete their task, two foot-bots team up with a hand-bot — the sticky-fingered acrobat of the team. Together, the foot-bots carry the hand-bot into position, which climbs and grapples to obtain their goal.

Experimental Analog Sampling per cut Vinyl

Thought this was a pretty kool little concept for sampling. Check out the video....

Analog Vinyl Sampling from Ishac Bertran on Vimeo.

Experimental analog sampling with modified vinyls. Sectors from a vinyl record are cut and replaced by pieces with exact shape from other records. When played in a vinyl player the needle follows the grooves from both sectors creating sampled tunes or loops.

An Artifact From The World Trade Center Passes Through The Sprint Campus

So I got a chance today to see a steel artifact from The World Trade Center as it stopped by the Sprint Campus on its way to the Overland Park Fire Training memorial.  I captured a couple pictures and a video of it leaving.

On Monday, July 25, Overland Park campus occupants will have the opportunity to see an artifact from the World Trade Center, as it makes a stop at MIQ Logistics, LLC, an OP campus tenant. MIQ is managing the project logistics of transporting a steel beam that was extracted from the World Trade Center destruction to a memorial site at the Overland Park Fire Training Center.

After travelling from the Port of New York, a police and fire department convoy will escort the beam through campus, pausing at MIQ’s Overland Park campus headquarters (11501 Outlook) at approximately 10 a.m., before moving to the Overland Park Fire Training memorial site at 12401 Hemlock.

It was something to see that big piece of steel and think about how it has such a historical place in our country. I always enjoy getting to witness first hand people or items that were part of something that defines us, our history, or our future.

Good Times At The Zaarly Launch Party

So last night was the launch party for new startup Zaarly.   Haven't heard of Zaarly or not sure what it is?

Also check out the Zaarly pitch at LA Startup Weekend

So right now there is an iphone app and a mobile browser experience to use Zaarly and of course being an android user I am hoping there is an app for that on the way as well...but for now its kool just seeing the community grow and find out how people are using the new service.

Zaarly has even launched a tumblr called Zaarly Stories to see how others are using the service and their experiences.

Here are some pics I took last night at the party.  It was great to see some familiar faces last night and even better that I got to meet a couple of people I follow on twitter in person for the first time.  Always great to make those real life connections.

Party took place at the bizperc space in downtown Kansas City.  At a great location and a great building
@bizperc where the @zaarly launch party took place

The launch party was presented by the KCITP group and hosted by bizperc

The Geek Is Now A Member Of The Green Lantern Corps

So today I come home from work to find a package for myself, I open it up, and find that I am the newest member of the Green Lantern Corps!!!!

I joined the green lantern corp

This note was included:

In brightest day, in blackest night, No evil shall escape my sight...

In a universe as vast as it is mysterious, an elite, powerful race has existed for centuries. Protectors of peace and justice, they are called the Green Lantern Corps. Warriors sworn to keep intergalactic order, each Green Lantern wears a ring that grants him the ability to create anything his mind can imagine.

Now you are the corps newest member! Wear your power ring with pride, and remember....

Let those who worship evil's might, beware my power--Green Lanters light!!

My green lantern ring

Of course this was all a promotion for the new Green Lantern movie hitting theaters on June 17th but it was a kool little package to receive and geek out to on a Friday afternoon. Thanks to all involved for sending it my way! I will wear the ring with honor!

Happy Towel Day!!!

Wishing everyone a happy Towel Day!!

Towel Day is celebrated every 25 May as a tribute by fans of the late author Douglas Adams.[1] On this day, fans carry a towel with them to demonstrate their love for the books and the author, as referenced in Adams's The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The commemoration was first held in 2001, two weeks after Adams's death on 11 May 2001.
