Shared Birthday

nobody@vox.com(Garth) — Thu, 22 May 2008 07:42:45 -0700

From the NYT, it looks like there is a new Capricorn sharing my birthday (January 9th), Supernova 2008D. Apparently its the first supernova that has been caught at birth.

SUPERNOVA600b

I plan on combining our birthday next year. I would like some carrot cupcakes and 2008D would like several trillion tons of interstellar gas.

World Wide Telescope

nobody@vox.com(Garth) — Tue, 13 May 2008 08:41:15 -0700

Just saw a twitter from Brad about Microsoft's new World Wide Telescope software. This page has a scant bit of information and a download link, but is dominated by a video player which will show you "Kids reactions to WWT". The video shows several dopey looking kids against a black background looking somewhere past the camera at what I assume is a computer running WWT. This goes on for about a minute accompanied by cheesy kids world music that you hear in Disney films that involve Africa.

Really?

Am I supposed to want to download this after watching how kids react? For all I know they could be watching "Double Dare" on Nickelodeon or seeing a fire truck drive by through a window.

Personally, I don't think we should just take the kids word for it. I think before I will download this I really a second reaction. It would probably be as or even more telling to see how LOL cats react to WWT. If someone could put that together I'd really appreciate it. Unfortunately, the best I can offer now is this video of how Cellular Automata react to WWT:

Wow look at the faces on those nth-generations! I can hardly wait to download this!
