You will see something cool here if you upgrade your Flash player.
Joe Weiss, creator of Soundslides, was interviewed for a podcast at PopPhoto (see the writeup by Jack Howard or hear the MP3). There’s ALSO an illustrated tutorial! Not that you will need one — but if you’re curious about what “ridiculously simple” really means … (Found via Richard, in my del.icio.us network.)
I will be taking […]
Thanks to Bryan Murley, I’m obligated (what obligates me, I’m not sure) to tell you these things:
I took two computer science courses in the days before the Web: A 1-credit course in FORTRAN (1978), and a 3-credit course in (hold your breath) microprocessor architectures (1984). I learned to write assembly language in the latter. I […]
