This is a pretty ingenious idea. If I ever need to lock a deadbolt from the outside, i just hope i have some really strong tape when I need to do this. If anyone ever tries doing this, let me know if it works.

Pi-obsessed Japanese reach 2.5 trillion digits
Link: Cnet - Pi reaching over 2.5 trillion decimals
Gosh, that's a lot of digits. Like the article states, the Japanese has a lot of time on their hands. Why on earth would you need to know digits anywhere that long! But, it's pretty cool to have set a world record, with a supercomputer =)

Study: Facebook Makes Lovers Jealous
Link: CNET - Facebook Makes Lovers Jealous
This is not new news, but there are studies now linking the relationship between lovers and how they react to activities going on Facebook. I don't see what's so surprising. Facebook IS another means of communicating, and it's open to others to see, so it's to no surprise to have untrusting couples react the way that they do.
It's interesting hearing different stories of people and the way that they react to such things as people posting comments on your lovers page.

Before And After - 1 GB
Link: 1 GB - 1980 vs. 2009
Here's a picture of the advancement of technology. The huge thing on the left is what a 1 GB drive was like back almost 30 years ago. On the right is how a 1 GB drive (flash drive) is in 2009, but just imagine how a 1 GB would be in another ten, twenty, or thirty years from 2009. I would imagine it would be almost microscopic!!

How NetFlix Gets Movies To You So Quickly!!
Link: How Netflix gets movies to you
Read this article on the mysteries of a NetFlix warehouse. I didn't know they were so secretive. I believe there is a NetFlix warehouse in Hawaii, or so that's what I've been told.
After reading these articles, I ask myself if I would ever get NetFlix. I have considered getting NetFlix before. It is a pretty good service, from what I hear. I think most of the media that NetFlix offers can already be found on the web, so that is the main reason why I do not subscribe to them. Then again, they do have thousands of titles, so there's bound to be things that they have that I can't get!
