i much prefer the old speaking computer sounds, you dont get that creepy uncanny valley effect, plus it just sounds cooler |
||||||||

(well it was funnier when i was straight and the reading out of the number seemed to go on forever. and ever.... good vid anyway... That is basically all the shit that people using Linux still do these days) |

yeah me too... especially the hate GPS voices, guy off Weakest Link voice |

was reading about the history of hyperlinks last night, interesting stuff, the internet could have developed in a really weird way |
||||||||
|

I'd quite like a website like that but not the entire internet |

if the Gopher protocol was made as open as Berners-Lee made his thing, we may all be speaking Gopher... its funny how ppl think major developments were the 'only way' things could have progressed but looking at it in retrospect it is so dependent on popularity... hah although i don't think that applies to wheels or wings ... (talking about speech synths, the 'thank you' bit off end of http://research.spa.aalto.fi/publications/theses/lemmetty_m ziggomatic is on this page: - 41 st/appa.html) |

http://research.spa.aalto.fi/publications/theses/lemmetty_m st/appa.html that is a nice sounding speech synth tbf |

i love that first one, you know the one that the woman uses like a court room transcription device |
||||||||

yeah its funny thinking that the web i still fairly linear in some regards, feels like it could have more parallel functionality rather that just gliding from tab to tab, but that's another topic! |

i cannae listen to them .wavs right now .... i saved the whole lot to my hd a while ago... so good - potted history of speechsynthesis Ted Nelson .... case in point i sometimes wonder if it wasn't for Jobs 'forsight' ie. nicking ideas from Xerox Parc we would be in a much different possibly more rubbbish place... this is pretty bonkers: |

Mother of all demos is one of the most mindbending vids, it several concepts that are so ahead of there time brought together than it will probably never be surpassed, especially in computing " windows, hypertext, graphics, efficient navigation and command input, video conferencing, the computer mouse, word processing, dynamic file linking, revision control, and a collaborative real-time editor." as wiki points out |

I quite like the idea behind that Xanadu project for certain applications, would be great to have an article and then all the references to it as blocks you could move to, and i guess the relevance could be signified by something like the colour of the physical link, or opacity or something, fun little project |
