MyMiniCity.com

On site www.myminicity.com everyone without registration can start its own minicity. Though there aren't many ways to control your city: the only thing you can do is to post links to the page with your city. Each visit of page increases population of city. As with city growth some new features appear: Industry, Transport network, etc. Each has its own link to invest in development of this city infrastructure. As a result city from small village can grow to the big megapolis.

That's my mini city: http://kaaglecity.myminicity.com/

"Suit to change the world"

"He gave me a black box. There was a label on it: 'Suit to change the world'. I looked at him, but he was silent, so I opened the box. There was:

• an honest heart
• intelligence
• steel will
• source of energy
  
• desire to make world better
• awl to the ass :-))

'So, we give you a life. And now go there and JUST DO IT!'"

What do you think about this suit. Is it enough? May be an author forgot some important ingredients? I think it's a good topic for discussion.

Fantastic abstraction

Impressive images of fractals:

• Amazing flame fractals take your breath away
• Flame Fractals continue to dazzle
• 3D Flame fractals
  
• Chaoscope fractals showcase the beauty of chaos.
  

I'm really excited and amazed by this kind of art. May be this is the art of future: combining irration vivid imagination and art vision with strong mathematical base it produces an amazing abstract pictures. So may be fractals with expand their influence on other kinds of human art activity? I'm sure it will one of the art movements in near future.

Idea!

Hey! I've got an idea! I'll try to count how much time I spend on labs for programming :-) It's rather interesting to find how much time does it take and moreover may be it will help me to arrange time. ;-)

try {
countTimeSpentForWork();
} // end try
catch( couldntPerformThisTask &exception ) {
std::cout << "Bad boy!" << face="arial">:-)
