After not posting for…OVER half a year, I’m back and hopefully with more content. A lot has happened over the time that I haven’t been posting so you should see a few posts that may have actually happened quite a while ago, for example:
I crashed my new car! Yes, mere months after replacing the Mazda I went and rear ended an SUV. Once again the insurance company decided to write it off. I didn’t agree so I bought it back and got it repaired with the money they gave me. Thankfully everything came up even. I now drive a 1998 Volvo S70, which in my eyes is a nice upgrade.
While on the topic of car accidents, I’m not the only one who rear ends things. One of my good friends, Evan, also rear ended an SUV. However his accident was much more…destructive.
Thats right, it all burnt. Since the Jetta is a lower car, it split the gas tank of the SUV which sparked the blaze. All of a sudden my crashes aren’t so bad, are they?
In a somewhat related note, Microsoft has released a web app entitled Photosynth which takes your photos and creates a simulated 3D enviroment. The app is still in beta and you must have a Microsoft Live account to register. Using the photos that I sent to the autobody shop, I gave it a shot and this is what I came out with.
I think that Photosynth has a lot of potential, but throughout my usage of the app I have already experienced 3 errors so there is definitely work to be done.
Well that’s it for today, hopefully there will be enough content in the future to consider the site active.
