Ahoy there Portside!

We went for an extremely filling taste testing at the new Portside restaurant at the Aberdeen Marina Club today. Finally got to see some of our branding and menus in action as well! The larger menu is finished in a leather cover with a nice wood veneer down the side with the logo branded (ok it was lasered) on, the smaller menu is also wood veneer finished with a magnetic clip at the top to keep the papers in!

Planking

Planking is a new form of art where people are photographed lying face down with stiff arms and legs. It was originated from Australia but now has spread world wide! Below are some… rather amusing planking photos.

Planking is an art form that I will never be able to understand. But I guess that’s art!

‘Hacktivists’ Lulz Security Disbands After 50-Day Spree

Lulz Security, the group that claims to have been behind the massive computer hacks suffered by Nintendo, Sony, some FBI affiliates and the U.S. Senate, has announced it is disbanding. Known primarily as Lulzsec, the group has been on what they are referring to as a “50-day cruise” of hacking everything it could, whether the sites were government, corporate or public-related.

Lulzsec began its reign over the Internet in May, compromising the account of some 77 million Sony PlayStation Network users. Its last hack, completed over the weekend, allegedly exposed information from a variety of groups, including the FBI and AOL.

Tab Play Project with Chrome

Have you ever tried to open up to 300 tabs in your browser?

I have a habit of opening up tons of tabs in my browser (well, not 300, probably 20-30 tabs), because I always want to come back to websites that I have not finished reading.. However, this habit always crashes or slows down my computer.

Google Japan shows how fast and light Chrome is by Tab Play Project. The idea was to “Play” a stop motion animation with 300 paintings using Chrome.

So, how to do this? It’s simple, visit Tab Play Project, open all the 300 paintings in Chrome then press Ctrl + Tab (switch between tabs) or Ctrl+ W (close tabs) to “Play” the animation!

Google Chrome is light and stable enough to open up to 300 tabs, however they do have minimum requirements of the computer, so please check before you start playing with it! :P
