No, no blood samples needed! Haha- that was my reaction when I first saw the word “dna”. I am usually not a fan of online personality tests, but this personalDna survey is really interesting. Apart from the usual yes/no, true/false questions, they have (spoiler alert!) these slider bars for questions and questions where you interactively place your response on a 2D grid. And then you get your own unique DNA color strip along with some cool advice if you want to be different.

Have fun with your self-relevation here.

For the interested folks, here’s mine.

“You are an encouraging leader. Your solid grounding in the practicalities of life, along with your self-assuredness and your willingness to appreciate new things make you a LEADER….”


stamp.gifThe Dutch agency Solar Initiative just recently developed a set of two regular-costing 39-euro-cent stamps for the TGP Post. The coolest thing about them is that they have moving images! Gone were the days where stamps were stills. This short movie on paper, featuring Dutch speed skater Yvonne van Gennip, is created using the lenticular effect technology.

These dynamic stamps greatly remind me of the postcards and newspaper photos we see in the Harry Potter movies, where the people in those pictures move, talk and have a whole life of their own. A familiar technology with a novel application! I’m looking forward to more of these moving postage stamps in future…


Why Macs suck

This video is incredibly funny! Watch how Hunter Cressall rants about how Macs suck.

Though I am a 100% Mac lover, this video gets to me because of the creative manner he rambles! Even the background music is perfect.

Of course what he says about Macs is no longer valid. I had once resurrected a very important file from my Powerbook G4 after I accidentally deleted it and emptied the trash. He obviously hasn’t used Mac OS X Tiger yet! Haha- strangely, I thought he was talking about Windows machines initially.
