This morning, I went to Formaspace out of curiosity to check out what they have to offer. I actually heard of this company for months but never bothered to visit it. I am glad I did today. Although I have no use for laboratory furniture, at least I know how lousy and ancient the laboratory tables and benches are in my school!

The laboratory furniture built by Formaspace is modern, sleek and space-saving. Customers can custom-build them by using a form or by contacting the company directly. This means that they can specify the type and design laboratory furniture to suit their needs and budget.

One main issue about furniture is that they must be practical and comfortable to use. If manufacturers could implement these two into an elegant design then they would have a winner on their hands. You can see many of these on Formaspace.

I really salute the Americans for their passion and spirit in sports. This competitiveness is stemmed from young when kids try to get into junior leagues and play their way to the top. This sporting culture is enhanced when people bet on their favorite teams. My American friends are always talking about one Bowl after another and since I left America, I have lost track of Bowl Game schedules since I don’t bet anymore.

This morning, I was told of a website called Doc’s Sports. I am surprised that I never heard of it even though they have more than thirty years of providing sports handicapping services. Well, this site might jet get me interested in College Bowls once again as they are publishing full College Bowl Game Schedules with updates, previews and reviews by their full time professional team of staff. This sounds interesting!

Each Bowl Game schedule includes the location, participants, date and time and the TV channel that it will broadcast on. By accessing Bowl Game information from Doc’s Sports, there really is no need to go anywhere else!

It’s amazing how fast technology has advanced. I still remember the days when only the very rich owned mobile phones but now, even pre-teens own mobile devices.

Similarly, video conferencing also has advanced by leaps and bounds. There was once when talking to the opposite party on a tiny flickering screen IS video conferencing. There was also plenty of “dead air” which in actual fact, the time lapse needed for the sound to travel from one party to the other.

If you look at the Video Conference System offered by LifeSize, I am sure you will be amazed that not only can we video conference now, we can do it with up for five other participants thanks to LifeSize Room. The high definition quality means that we no longer talk to a blur “image” but a real life looking person.

This means that we could be more efficient in bring across our ideas even if we are in different parts of the world and separated by an ocean!

What a weekend it has been. I had to meet up with friends to show off my iPhone. All of them “booked” me as soon as they found out that I won an iPhone and waiting along with me for its arrival.

Now that I have gotten it to work fully and I have learnt to use all of the features, they wanted to play with it and take pictures of it too. I also had to explain the features and stuff as if I was selling it and they were my potential buyers! LOL

Every where that I went to shoot photos to test the camera to see how well the colours will captured, people will go like, “WAH, that is that?” They could not decide if it’s a phone or camera. I had to tell them that it’s an iPhone but I am not sure if they get it but I’d still offer to let them check it out before I could continue shooting.

I think I would need to buy insurance for it! LOL
