… excusing the pun; I was surprised to see just how many online multiplayer games there are (which you don’t have to pay for, too!)

Curiouser and curiouser.

Updated 4th Feb 2007!
Today I received my shiny new silver PS2 eyeToy and Play3 software. Bit of a spur of the moment purchase from eBay (saved about a tenner from the high-street price).
While watching a company webcast, I wondered whether the eyeToy works as a USB webcam on the PC. Well, it does, and I found a driver to make it work fully on XP.

I’m getting into reading a few other people’s blogs now, and discovered this article on how long it takes someone to take in the first page of a website. Quite amazing: Web users form first impressions of web pages in as little as 50 miliseconds (1/20th of a second), according to Canadian researchers.

Now PhotoBooks are a great idea. 20 pages of hardback book, printed with your photos… amazing stuff. Just 20 quid; ace.

Sadly I don’t know an awful lot about how this was done. I guess they did it by judging the velocity vector v(t) of the bigfoot relative to static objects in the video, gluing all those vectors together into a line on a different plane then moving the entire video itself so a fixed point on the bigfoot’s body, for example his (/her?) hip, travels along that path.
However they did it, it looks even more like a bloke in a gorilla suit than it did before. See the bigfoot walking here.
