I can't wait for school to start.
OK, so I'm totally going to the right school. This morning I woke up with an idea – figure out a way to use an iSight camera not as a webcam but as a direct video feed, which can then be used as a video desktop. You know, so when you're horribly frustrated with work you can minimize everything and watch the beach in Maui for a while.
It'd be the next generation of webcams, and a quick Google search for "Mac OS X video desktop" didn't pull up anything. When I get there this fall and have some time to play with other geeks, this'll definitely be on my hit list.
Just wondering if you've ever been to a store called Ware in the World in Evanston?
I don't believe so -- what's it like, and where is it?
I take that back -- a neat little art-objects store on Dempster near the El bridge, down the street from an old radio shop in one direction and a Shaker furniture store in the other? Yep, I've been there. We just got a postcard in the mail the other day and the name finally clicked.
