Google is at it again.

TED Talk about photo linking that has some amazing possibilities. Had to admit it was quite a show.

I just saw this today. Fellow indentured showed me and it was pretty awesome.

I wonder if this was the precursor to the Google Tango device they are developing. It's has to be related somehow.

Read his bio. Part of the technology they were developing before Microsoft bought them is being used on bing.com for their imaging panoramic viewing.

Microsoft has the tech rights so Google can't hook it for Tango.

Blaise Aguera y Arcas is back with Google now and it will be cool to see where his mind will take things next.

It won't be too much longer

"Every Breath You Take" - Sting/Police

Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I'll be watching you

Every single day
Every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay
I'll be watching you

o.O

I know. Privacy is dead. But, at least everyone is a STAR!

"Sting later said he was disconcerted by how many people think the song is more positive than it is. He insists it's about the obsession with a lost lover, and the jealousy and surveillance that follow. "One couple told me 'Oh we love that song; it was the main song played at our wedding!' I thought, 'Well, good luck.'"[6] When asked why he appears angry in the music video Sting told BBC Radio 2, "I think the song is very, very sinister and ugly and people have actually misinterpreted it as being a gentle little love song, when it's quite the opposite."

Little by little, the things that have been accomplished (for decades) with our National Technical Means get re-invented in the non-classified world ... dribble by dribble.

Neat stuff.
