Ganesha Games says: "It's the theme song from the new Studio Ghibli feature anime. I never thought Japanese sung with a French accent would be so sweet."
I'll look forward to the movie (which title is it?), Studio Ghibli films are usually very good.
I love My Neighbour Totoro and Kiki's Delivery Service. For some reason Spirited Away didn't really do it for me. Princess Mononoke was great visually, but it didn't really stick with me. Whisper of the Heart and Howl's Moving Castle were good.

I'll look forward to the movie, they are usually very good.
(It's been years, I wonder if I've missed one?)

The Web Means the End of Forgetting

Examples are proliferating daily: there was the 16-year-old British girl who was fired from her office job for complaining on Facebook, “I’m so totally bored!!”; there was the 66-year-old Canadian psychotherapist who tried to enter the United States but was turned away at the border — and barred permanently from visiting the country — after a border guard’s Internet search found that the therapist had written an article in a philosophy journal describing his experiments 30 years ago with L.S.D.

India's iPad rival to cost $35
India's iPad rival to cost $35, article.
It's too early to say whether this specific device will go places, but there's no doubt that more of them will come, and that the pad will get competition, perhaps serious competition, from below.
If it was me, I would focus on a few features it would do well, like text and networking, and then forget about the 10,000 features you can't do well in a super-cheap device.

EepyBird's Sticky Note experiment
EepyBird's Sticky Note experiment, video. Rather prettier than the diet coke "experiments".
I wonder if you can buy sticky notes configured like this? Surely they don't shift every second note 90 degrees by hand!

Camera rumors
There are rumors now for both of the two giants, Nikon and Canon, that they finally will both make a play to counter the successful Micro Four Thirds cameras, which have exchangeable lenses but no mirror, and are more compact than DSLRs.
The rumors say that the Nikon will be mirrorless, but the Canon not. In any case, I'll look on with interest.
