Eclipse progress in one picture
Posted by Wesley onMoon eats, then spits out the Sun in just two hours
While the overhead cloud hampered the observation of the solar eclipse at its peak (around 10:48 AM) and beyond, I was able to manage a few shots at the Sun as the eclipse progressed. Here's a ten-photo crop of the photos I took. There has been no retouching or resizing. Enjoy!
Solar eclipse!
Posted by Wesley onTasty, tasty Sun gobbled up by the Moon
Too bad Korea didn't fall into the total solar eclipse zone (that prestige went to southern China and India), but this eclipse is the best one I've seen with my own (shielded) naked eyes yet. Good thing the office had spare floppy disks lying around. It's a very good filter.
Tmax Window 9: Korea's answer to MS Windows?
Posted by Wesley onTmax Window 9 - the cardboard box. Where's the real thing?
Well, a Korean software company called TmaxSoft is announcing their latest product, Tmax Window today at Grand Intercontinental Hotel in downtown Seoul. For some bizarre reason, this version 1.0 software starts off at version 9. That's hardly the most bizarre part of it all. The company is claiming full compatibility with existing Microsoft Windows operating system, and is even offering their own office and web browser, each supposedly fully compatible with Microsoft Office Internet Explorer, along with it.
I wonder how much of this is true? We'll find out soon enough.
