Either way, I do drop all cookies etc stored by facebook, because now I will only log into facebook in chromium on incognito mode (also called porn mode).

I work with a private online community focused on LG, and we talk a lot about technology and smart phones. I’d love to see if you’d be interested in joining—it’d be great to get your opinions! Tech and design lovers can talk to top engineers from LG and share their vision of what tablets look like in the future. Please let me know if you would like me to send you a link to join.

Who could hate a bunch of delicious chocolaty cookies?! lol I don't know what is worse: all your information just dispersing out like paint in water or the NSA "blackholing" everything- all in and nothing out. They are sucking info in by the teraflop. Mostly I enjoy the fact that they could come up with a very effective interrogation profile on anyone in about 15min. Facebook security is pretty much screwed...there are too many stupid people just posting everything about themselves. Now you can sign into other sites with Facebook- god knows what kind of repercussions that might have?

Although I do not own any devices made by Apple, several of my friends do, I'll take a look at your app from their devices. I'm really looking forward to this, thank you. Wow, that video is cool.

It creates the illusion of interactive 3D without the glasses via anamorphic perspective projection and the accelerometer. This only requires a single image and the illusion is actually increased by *shutting* one eye as the brain is further confused by the perspective/motion/lack of depth info. You can see videos and find out more at http://kode80.com/ If you'd like to try it out shoot me an email and I'll send you a promo code.

And I really wish laser surgery would work (as it would for the character in the film), but the only thing that could help me is some sort of nerve surgery, in particular, my optic nerve. I suppose I could also use Jordy's visor (form Star Trek, that character and I have the same defect, albeit his is worse), but the episodes where you get to see how that visor works...I think I'll pass.

Have you ever just considered laser eye surgery? :) You just need to develop something even more cool, then no one will care about 3D crap anymore!
