Sony X-series announced !

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

Sony new mp3 player ( the one I am waiting for ) has been announced in Japan few days ago ( 25 April 2009 ).

Rounded up some comments form different Hi-Fi blogs, um…just like other audio products - radical views. Some people said they like its taste because the great analytical sound ( super cool sound ), noise-canceling helps to have a more clear and silent environment; While some claimed that there’s too much bass about the machine, tends to focus on the middle-low range.

mp3 HD comes

Tuesday, March 24th, 2009

Finally, there’s a upgrade in mp3. At present, the highest bit rate we can use in all mp3 player is ‘just’ upto 320kbps ( which is already too enough for some users ) ; But as the mp3 HD comes, we can have  up to 1411kbps with the same format, same file extension and the same compatibility mp3. That is certainly a great news to me ( and those who care the sound quality much as me ).

PaperVision3D 2.0 Demo

Monday, March 16th, 2009

Papervision - an open source project targeting on Flash 3D presentation.

Papervision logo

What we had before this project? We still have several ways to show 3D in internet : VRML, Java, Shockwave, and some other uncommon plugins; And most of the time, if you got some experience on that, we were always needed to code something like “matrix” and complex steps. I think it blocked most of us to learn at that time.
