Old Mac Video Games I Love
Do you remember these?
Radical Castle (this one is particularly fantastic)
technology help
I’m going to be doing some internet consulting soon and will be working ‘virtually’. The team I will be working with uses web cams to do a lot of their communication. I’m on a Mac and most of the team are on Macs. We’ll be using iChat to communicate. I like the Apple iSight but it’s pretty expensive. Does anyone know good alternatives? (That are fucking beautiful.)
more multitouch
- Need to move a cursor across the screen? Just slide your finger and it goes.
- Want to enter text? Just start typing and the text is there. You even get the touch feedback as if really pressing the keys.
- Need to erase some text? Use the backspace or just slide the finger backwards
- Have to write or draw something? Just pretend you hold a stylus or pen in your hand and start writing/drawing.
- If that is still not good enough, pick up the real stylus and start writing with it.
- All these cool touch gestures that Apple has implemented in iPhone and is exploring further? You know, scrolling, zooming, rotating & moving objects, etc; They are here too
- 3D object manipulation? Select a few 3D objects on the screen and use all 5 fingers on both hands to play with them.
- Want to take a break to relax and afraid to put your hands on the touch surface? Don’t worry Multi-touch 2.0 thingie knows that and does not pay attention to your resting palms or fingers
multitouch in mac os x
In case there were any doubts that Apple was exploring the use of advanced multitouch gestures under Mac OS X, a recent Apple patent application authored by Wayne Westerman (of Fingerworks) shows mockups of a Mac OS X gesturing control panel with options to configure standard trackpad, basic multitouch, and advanced multitouch settings.
