Clever!

There's a video i saw a while ago, showing a setup in which a sign in a shop window follows people walking in front of it back and forth along the width of the window.

AH! Here it is!

And here is the page of the guy who designed it.

Okay those are just plain cool. Sometimes I love technology.

I read recently that if you ask Siri about flights overhead, or what flight is over me and the like, she'll tell you whats going on overhead. I don't have an iPhone so's I can't tell if it works or not.

I once went to an exhibition that featured a giant mantis (as in elephants would have to beware) that would sit almost completely still, with mainly just its head following your movements and its claws slightly twitching.
