I have finally figured out how to get Disqus comments working with this template. To comment:
- You'll have to click on either the "infinity" sign at the upper right of a post or the "Comments (View)" at the lower left of a post.
- This will make the comment fields visible in the right hand margin.
- You can then enter your comments.

picturebubbles :: stretch your perspective →
A PictureBubble spherical panorama is a cutting-edge form of photography used to capture an entire space in 360° along the horizontal and 180° along the vertical. Unlike traditional photography, PictureBubbles allow us to show every angle of a room or environment of any size, all at once.
Additionally, unlike traditional photography, PictureBubbles can capture a much greater range of brightness within a scene. Ever notice how a photograph taken near a sunlit window tends to lose outdoor detail?
PictureBubbles show a complete spectrum of exposure, bringing indoor and outdoor detail into harmony within the same scene. But PictureBubbles are not limited to spherical photography; environments can be linked together to form complex “virtual tours,” and PictureBubbles make use of embedded video, sound, and zoom-able interactive content. And geotagging can be used to plant your PictureBubbles accurately on a virtual map of Earth.

Kenwood Hibachi Speaker
Inside its bowl-like form sits a three-speaker system, wireless receiver, lighting and battery: the lights also indicates the charge status of the battery, which should let the device run for a whole day. The wireless audio works 30m from the source, so presumably you could use it outside from Kenwood Hibachi Speaker

Google raising newspaper morgues from the dead
You can now search Google’s newly announced News Archive for actual digital images of old newspaper articles. An interesting variation for this search is the view timeline feature which displays a timeline about the search subject.
You can then view summaries from various periods along the timeline ultimately drilling down to actual newspaper articles, like this one from the November 13, 1910, Sunday Drama Society Fashions Music Section of the New York Times.
What a wonderful new reseach tool!
