Apr. 22nd, 2002 11:44 pmI had a meeting with Norm and Mick, about our business idea for a web development/hosting/programming company, and had lunch, before going back to work.
In research presently, Tom has me working with a pair of USB webcams, trying to do some funky video stuff. We wanted to get four webcams working together originally, but we can only get two going together so far. I need to see if I can find another pair of identical cameras to use. Then we will get stereoscopic webcam vision on the FakeSpace system once I write a little program for it. Hopefully the other researcher is going to stay at TechBC as well, and I can see about getting another job in Research!
On my way home today, I stopped firstly at FutureShop Metrotown to buy a blank DVD-R. They had Verbatim DVD-R's on special, for $14.99+tax each. Then I got a 130 bus up to Hastings, got a Slushie, bought a DVD-ROM drive and some USB D-brackets at Fly Computers.
Then, I went to Mac's on Holdom and Hastings, and finished the process of returning the cellphone that I found yesterday. The owner's parents were happy to have recovered it. Their son, who is 17, and attends the high school at Canada Way, has lost four cellphones including this one. I guess this is my good deed (mitzvah) for a while, since I don't actively seek to do anything good for somebody most of the time. I generally just go, and if I feel like it, do some random act of kindness.
