We know when G+ is going mainstream because a page/business like Naples Dodge Chrysler Jeep circles a UK resident (like me)
We know when G+ is going mainstream because a page/business like Naples Dodge Chrysler Jeep circles a UK resident (like me) Duh! Whatever are they doing that for? Maybe expecting a reciprocal circling 'just because'. Goota hope G+ is better than that! http://www.forbes.com/sites/anthonykosner/2013/01/26/watch-out-facebook-with-google-at-2-and-youtube-at-3-google-inc-could-catch-up/

A very funny new (to me) joke! #FT #joke #LOL
A very funny new (to me) joke! #FT #joke #LOL ... Barry Cryer rings to tell me about the couple from a circus who go to an adoption agency where officials are doubtful about their accommodation. They produce photographs of their 15-metre-long caravan in which the back half is a magnificently equipped nursery. But what about education for a child whose family is permanently on the move? "We have employed an Oxford don who will teach the child all the main subjects, plus Mandarin Chinese and IT skills." But, they persist, what about health? "Our full-time nanny is also an expert in paediatric welfare and diet." The agency is happy and ask the couple what age of child they were looking for. "It doesn't really matter," they say, "so long as he fits into the canon." Via: Simon Hoggart's week column http://gu.com/p/3jpmk http://gu.com/p/3jpmk

Thoughts on Later: Lloyd Cole & Anna Calvi. #FT #music
Thoughts on Later: Lloyd Cole & Anna Calvi. #FT #music I watched this week's Later (I often don't) this week mainly because Lloyd Cole was on - nice performances with his occasional electric backing band. His current tour is acoustic/one-man due to costs/budgets ( http://www.lloydcole.com/weblog/index.php?p=6699&c=1 ). He's playing in Stockton on Thursday evening and I intend to get along. The recent album (Standards: http://www.lloydcole.com/music/standards/main.html ) is great with some fun, more rocky tracks than the last few and some poignant slower songs (Myrtle and Rose is a standout - he performed that on Later). I also enjoyed Anna Calvi, who I'd never heard of let alone heard any music from. Some quick research shows her to be worth an explore. Interesting style/imagery on stage and we always dig a chick who plays guitar. How come I am so unaware of a cool (newish) rock act? Am I that out of touch. As for the others: John Newman - seems like someone h...

qCraft: Quantum Physics In Minecraft
qCraft: Quantum Physics In Minecraft We built the Quantum A.I. Lab to explore the potential of quantum computing, and figure out what questions we should be asking. One question is clear: Where will future quantum computer scientists come from? Our best guess: Minecraft. Millions of kids are spending a whole lot of hours in Minecraft, not just digging caves and fighting monsters, but building assembly lines, space shuttles, and programmable computers, all in the name of experimentation and discovery. So how do we get these smart, creative kids excited about quantum physics? We talked to our friends at MinecraftEdu and Caltech’s Institute for Quantum Information and Matter and came up with a fun idea: a Minecraft modpack called qCraft . It lets players experiment with quantum behaviors inside Minecraft’s world, with new blocks that exhibit quantum entanglement, superposition, and observer dependency. Of course, qCraft isn’t a perfect scientific simulation, but it’s a fun way for p...

Tutorial: Running Minecraft on a Raspberry Pi @ The Adafruit Learning System Mojang, the original developers of Minecraft have ported Minecraft to the Raspberry Pi. The result is called Minecraft Pi Edition. It is not the full Minecraft implementation, it is closer to the mobile version of Minecraft, but none the less a lot of fun. This tutorial will show you how to install and run Minecraft Pi Edition on a Raspberry Pi. http://learn.adafruit.com/running-minecraft-on-a-raspberry-pi/ Raspberry Pi #raspberrypi #minecraft
