Job Hunter Extraordinaire
April 24, 2006
Well today, Ive been looking for a job and found a few which Im able to apply. So hopefully soon I should have a reply from the jobs ive applied for. Other than that todays been a bit boring.
Little bits of news about the PS3 and its continuing development have been coming and going, but allot of it is rubbish news about testing hardware. Also doing the rounds is new about "Ridge Racer 7" of which im very excited about. I played all the Ridge racer games including its arcade incarnations, the only ones I haven't had chance to play are the PSP & xbox 360 versions, but im sure I will eventually. If you haven't seen the latest screen shots then here you go.

Well the last couple of days, the PC at home that we use for the internet, was over run by virus's and other nasties. This is down to my brother, as he has no idead whats hes doing on a computer and he downloaded so crap. Thing is we had uptodate anti-virus and spyware programmes, but the stuff still managed to work its way onto the PC. Well my parent whent out ot buy a copie of Windows XP home to day, and ive just finished formatting and installing the software we need. Just hope nothing goes a-stray this time, £90 for a legit version though is bad. Any way im back online now so

Flickr blog test
April 10, 2006
Well ive just set up a Flickr account and well all I can say, is that the post to blog thing dosn't work too well. But all I was after were the thumbnails anyway and it works ok in that respect with a little editing. I just wish the rich Text editor was working, because im going to have to learn to use HTML stuff. 
New Female Robot On Its Way
April 8, 2006
Takahashi-san, of Kyoto’s Robot Garage, is already famous worldwide as the creator of a series of high performance, and beautifully styled male robots including Chroino and Manoi. So what could he do to top that? Simple. How about a female robot that not only looks great, but also walks and moves just like a woman?
Takahashi’s latest creation has been dubbed “FT”, standing for female type, and no connection with the Financial Times out of the U.K.
There isn’t much available in the way of specific details on the FT yet, though the photos look fantastic.
What we do know is that the robot stands 35 centimeters tall, weighs about 800 grams, and has 23 degrees of freedom. The robots design incorporates the use of two separate gyrosensors. The robots basic structure is composed of advanced carbon fiber and plastic. On board power is supplied by a lithium polymer battery.
According to the Robot Garage webpage, Takahashi wanted to create a female robot that is not only pleasing to the eye and imagination, but can also walk just like a real woman would. Production time is quoted at 13 months. Source:- Robot Dreams
