Even Microsoft Uses IE Hacks

July 18th, 2008 by Zeeshan Hasan

Well this is interesting, if you are a person who is somehow related to web, who spend ridiculous amount of time fixing CSS & XHTML that should work perfectly in IE6, IE7 then i guess this is an interesting discovery.

Microsoft recently revamped there windows website with a new layout to tellĀ  the world “What is windows Live?” so instead of checking out windows live i said why not check out how Microsoft writes its markup and what i found was a bit disturbing, on the top of the page was a css hack to load a separate style sheet for IE7 as the original style sheet was not compatible with IE7.

<!–[if IE 7]><link rel=”Stylesheet” href=”Framework/styles/base_ie.css” /><![endif]–>

Radiohead’s new video ‘House of Cards’

July 18th, 2008 by Zeeshan Hasan

Radiohead one of my favoriteĀ  band is always creative with there videos, recently Radiohead came up with a new video ‘House of Cards’ from there new album ‘In Rainbows’. The key point of this video was that it was created without the use of cameras & lights. No its not animated video rather the video was produced by capturing 3D images using two technology companies ‘Geometric Informatics & Velodyne LIDAR. Geometric Informatics scanning systems produce structured light to capture 3D images at close proximity, while a Velodyne Lidar system that uses multiple lasers is used to capture large environments such as landscapes. In this video, 64 lasers rotating and shooting in a 360 degree radius 900 times per minute produced all the exterior scenes.

Its sort of a digital video compromised of digital data manipulate. Even Google loved there idea and some of there data is available on Google’s code website which you can use to incorporate your own visualization.
