Mae gen i ebol melyn

"Mae gen i ebol melyn
Yn codi'n bedair oed
A phedair pedol arian
O dan ei bedwar troed. "

World's first animation

"An animated piece on an earthen goblet that belongs to 5000 years ago was found in Burnt City in Sistan-Baluchistan province, southeastern Iran.

On this ancient piece that can be called the first animation of the world, the artist has portrayed a goat that jumps toward a tree and eats its leaves. "

WikyBlog

"WikyBlog began as an attempt to combine the features of wikis and blogs into a single efficient application. We took collaborative editing and revision history, mixed it with journal styled organization and threaded comments then added our own touch with an AJAX enhanced interface and Google Maps support. After all was said and done, we've ended up with an application that stands out from the others."

Tsampa Keyboard font

"Tsampa Keyboard is a true type Tibetan font which can be used directly from the keyboard without any external drivers or software. Simply change the font to Tsampa Keyboard and type away in Wylie transliteration. This lack of external dependencies makes it suitable for older applications, programs which can't handle input macros, programs which only allow one font (non-Unicode Tibetan fonts are commonly divided into several font files), or where constant cutting and pasting from a Tibetan wordprocessor is unfeasible."

50 miles per burrito : Yahoo! Green

"So why is the human body so much more efficient than automobiles?

It turns out that they aren't that much more efficient. Car engines aren't superbly efficient, that's for sure. But What's much more inefficient is the fact that 95% of the net weight of a car is car... only 5% is the driver. Only 65 of the 1,800 calories used to move the car that mile are for the driver. The rest is used to move the doors and the roof and the airbags and the cup holders with you. "
