NLB Innovation Center

Haha ... finally got my Picassa to work with my blog.

All I need is to select the pictures and then click "Blog this" icon from my Picassa to upload those pictures. Its very convenient.

But one thing I find inadequate about Picassa is the lack of features in its editor and also I can't put any labels for my blog posting. Still, the ease with which photos are uploaded are unparalleled!

ok, below are the 3 pictures I took using my Sony Ericsson K800i in a visit in NLB. The first picture is like a vending machine where you can loan books. The second picture is a mobile book drop. NLB plans was to push the mobile library concept one step further by placing the vending machine (for loaning of books) and the mobile book drop (for return) close to their users, eg. around MRT station etc. Again, all uses RFID technology, which shows the extent RFID can be applied.



Haha ... This one is more for fun actually. The bus is converted into mobile library. This is of course nothing new but since I have never visited a library in a bus, I thought of capturing as well.

NEA - Website provide details on weather

Haha ... to NEA website provide very good info on weather. Thanks NEA!

haha ... learnt a new word today, someone mentions GE acquisition strategy is quintessential with Buffett teachings. I totally catch no ball. Went back to check dictionary and find that quintessential means "being the most typical". Cool. Can't pronounce it though and Dictionary.com is too pity to charge for users who want to hear the words out loud.
