Crazed mind of a techie

Kien Tran's personal blog

Google has had self driving cars for some time. Go go DARPA

So we have developed technology for cars that can drive themselves. Our automated cars, manned by trained operators, just drove from our Mountain View campus to our Santa Monica office and on to Hollywood Boulevard. They’ve driven down Lombard Street, crossed the Golden Gate bridge, navigated the Pacific Coast Highway, and even made it all the way around Lake Tahoe. All in all, our self-driving cars have logged over 140,000 miles. We think this is a first in robotics research.

This is pretty amazing. I'm glad to see real life application of the DARPA challenges.

T-SHIRT WAR 2 - Power of The Social Network

Following the mad success of T-Shirt War 1, Video producers Rhett and Link were asked by Coca-cola and McDonalds to create a new T-Shirt War video as a comercial.

It just goes to show you how powerful the social web can really be in influencing the mainstream world.
