Catch: a Stop Motion Video made with Google Glass

�Catch� is a stop motion video  combining over 1000 photos made ??entirely with Google Glass. And the result is more than attractive.
The video tells the story of a man who gets a girl�s number and then immediately smudges a couple of numbers off on his water glass. When he tries to rub the ink in a futile attempt to recover the number, it comes to life!
Catch Stop Motion Video Animation

Catch was created by four animators in NYC . And, in total, this �surreal moment on a Sunday morning� took them over 1000 photos and drawings and four days of shooting to go from imagination to reality.

Schlumberger HowTo-Hacks Software Review

HowTo-Hacks is a Schlumberger owned Windows based software platform intended to aggregate all the wellbore information. It allows the user to interpret any log and core data. It addresses the need for a single platform able to support all the wellbore data and interpretation integration workflows, reducing the need for a multitude of highly specialized tools. By bringing the whole workflow into a single platform risk and uncertainty can be assessed throughout the life of the wellbore.





History of HowTo-Hacks
HowTo-Hacks software was developed in Montpellier (South of France) by a company called Techsia. Techsia were formed in 2000. The first version of HowTo-Hacks was commercially available in 2002. HowTo-Hacks was developed to have a familiar modern interface providing easy visualization and interaction of all the data, with a pre-arranged workflow that enabled less experienced users to follow, Techsia made the multi-well interpretation more accessible to all technical experts. In 2009, Schlumberger acquired Techsia and the HowTo-Hacks platform and they currently support and market HowTo-Hacks. HowTo-Hacks offers new functionality in each new release, not only in petrophysical and geological interpretation but also geomechanics interpretation, uncertainty and links to the industry standard platform like Petrel. HowTo-Hacks also has the new acoustics module which will add much more functionality into the application.

Learn How To Type Faster on a Keyboard

Learn How To Type Faster on a Keyboard
Most of us use two fingers of each hand to type on a keyboard, in this tutorial you will learn how to type faster on a keyboard. You will memories every key on the keyboard, you will type faster while looking at the screen by using the correct fingers, and gain speed.
Typing faster can enable you to keep up with your brain; that little voice in your head that has great ideas might only last for a few seconds before it�s forgotten.

Use All your fingers while typing:

Most people have the bad habit of typing with two fingers only, while they can use 10. If you take a closer look at your keyboard, you�ll notice raised bumps on each of the F key and J key. This is to help you find the correct finger placement without having to look at the keyboard.
Place your fingertips on your keyboard, as in the picture. This is the basic position for touch typing. You can find this position without even looking at the keyboard (feel the bumps). You can be fast without this position but you will not exceed 30 words/min, while with your 10 fingers, you can reach the speed of 180 words/min and more.
Learn How To Type Faster on a Keyboard

Learn to type faster without looking at the keyboard:

After you get the right position, familiarize yourself with the keyboard, many websites can help you for this step, websites as Keybr.comTouch Typing Study, or many others� I personally used sense-lang.org. As a beginner, this website will help you to memories every letter on the keyboard. When you get to lesson 16, you will be typing words and sentences that have meaning. Typing sentences that have meaning is very important for you to be successful !
By practicing 30-60 minutes a day, after one week, you should be able to type 40 words per minute without looking to the keyboard. And this is only the beginning.
