I played with hydrochloric acid during my school's chemistry lab session. Drop a little amount of it to my text book while my teacher is teaching something else, and see the pages being eaten by those acids. Just because I'm getting bored in class. That was one case of myself. How about you? Have you ever misuse your science lab chemicals? Today, I found other way for student to learn about chemical reaction without ever use the actual chemical.

Lately, I'm getting interested in Mobile Phone Application . And what make me more interested about it was, getting to know the Android , a new open source operating system and software platform for mobile phones . The Android is developed by Google, and later the Open Handset Alliance based on Linux kernel .

In December 2006, Nintendo released the Nintendo Wii which featured an innovative controller containing an accelerometer and pointing capability. This provided millions of people with a new ways to interact with computers. As an HCI researcher, Johnny Lee became interested to show to people what they can really do with their new toy that they never knew it could do. Johnny Chung Lee , have made an amazingly Superb Wii Remote hacks - which turn the $40 device into a digital whiteboard, multi-touch display, and 3-D viewer - have been a massive hit on YouTube, was invited to speak at the TED conference. Watch and be amazed by what a brilliant mind can do with a child’s toy. Check out Johnny Chung Lee's Project page for more stories about his fantastic research and innovations. Enjoy!!

I've been interested in Electronic since I worked in a small company developing a home automation designer software. I don't want to tell much about that company since I've already left the company and now working in another small company doing another automation stuff. I learned a lot that programing and electronic can be combined to create more hi-tech appliances. Electronic and programming is fun and fascinating. Take a look at this cool DIY gadget called Plasma Speaker or Plasma Tweeter . But be careful because this cool things is dangerous too. There are various versions of this FM modulated plasma arc speakers. Even thou Plasma Speaker is not new in any way because they’ve been around since the late 1950’s. It is a cool thing for me. It sounds just like regular speakers, but plasma speakers work by creating compression waves in the air. Enjoy this show... and another cool homebrew PVC pipe Plasma Speaker ... Looks cool huh? I gotta build and try this if I have tim...
