- Noise Isolation .vs. Cancellation .vs. Reduction – protect your ears and work in peace & quiet
Most of the time, Developers' day-to-day jobs can be a bit stressful. With tight deadlines, high expectations, and often unwieldy applications/codebases to manage, you can see how there really is a need to be able to concentrate in order to succeed in this role. Of course, this applies to non-technical roles as well, but in...
- Speech Recognition – Nuance’s Dragon NaturallySpeaking 14
They often call it Voice Recognition in Nuance's marketing and promotional material, which doesn't help the average user to have clarity about what exactly the product's capabilities are, but in fact up until recently Nuance's suite of Audio Recognition software has strictly been focused on Speech Recognition.
As such, they have emerged as one of the... - Audio Recognition overview (TTS, STT, Voice .vs. Speech)
It is still in many ways the early days of innovation in the several sub-categories of Audio Recognition.
Microphones
Thanks to technological advancements, microphones have become smaller and smaller (perhaps to some extent this has been driven by the post-war and Cold War eras where espionage became so critical, so governments worldwide competed producing better and better... - NB Hackathon – NoSQL, BigData and Linked Open Data for Government
This month, I participated in the NB Hackathon, an event that aims to bring developers in Atlantic Canada (particularly NB) together for the purpose of hacking on some interestling Linked Open Data and traditional (i.e. Microsoft Excel) Government Data sets which is being made publicly available for the first time. ...
- LayerPlayer released for SkipSearch
Announcing the availability of SkipSearch's new Layer Player ALPHA version. This is still early days even though its a multi-year project for me, as I continue to work on this in my very rare spare time. This new feature will much more readily bring to light the capabilities of the recommendation engine built under the... - JS Podcatcher (a Podcast client written in JavaScript)
So just this month my 5-year old iPhone3GS finally bit the dust. I had been hanging on and managed to extend its life well beyond its 3-year Telco contract (which I immediately cancelled the day I was out) by pairing it with a MiFi hotspot for much cheaper VoIP-based calling and using data-intensive applications only... - Creating a W3C Widget with the Wikipedia API
In a previous post I described what the W3C Widget specification is and how it works. In this post I'll describe how to create a more useful widget than the typical "HelloWorld" that will follow the W3C Widget spec. This may seem a bit late to the party, as people were actively creating and exchanging... - DIY Project – Home Theatre Projection Screen Controls
Inspired by the now infamous TED Talk presentation by John Underkoffler (scroll to the end of this post if you haven't seen it yet), one of the leading MIT researchers behind the Futuristic UIs and Technologies that appear in the 2002 Sci-Fi film Minority Report, I've set out to find my own "best approximation" of a... - HTML5 Audio Player Jukebox
Here's a piece of work I did on a freelance basis back in early 2012 for a client who allowed me to retain the full rights to the code as a "library" which I could distribute. (I offered them two prices of course, one cheaper rate where I retain the rights and one premium rate... - Working with LimeSurvey’s RemoteControl2 JSON-RPC API in PHP
Recently, I needed to switch away from SurveyMonkey, which, while still a useful free service for quickly collecting some basic Survey results, leaves much to be desired in terms of what they offer in their basic version. Of course the fully paid versions offer significantly more functionality, but the upper-end of the pricing schemes that...
BC$ = Behavior, Content, Money
The goal of the BC$ project is to raise awareness and make changes with respect to the three pillars of information freedom - Behavior (pursuit of interests and passions), Content (sharing/exchanging ideas in various formats), Money (fairness and accessibility) - bringing to light the fact that:
1. We regularly hand over our browser histories, search histories and daily online activities to companies that want our money, or, to benefit from our use of their services with lucrative ad deals or sales of personal information.
2. We create and/or consume interesting content on their services, but we aren't adequately rewarded for our creative efforts or loyalty.
3. We pay money to be connected online (and possibly also over mobile), yet we lose both time and money by allowing companies to market to us with unsolicited advertisements, irrelevant product offers and unfairly structured service pricing plans.
I’m really loving the theme/design of your site. Do you ever run into any web browser compatibility issues? A few of my blog audience have complained about my site not working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Chrome. Do you have any tips to help fix this issue?

I truly love your blog.. Very nice colors & theme. Did you develop this site yourself?
Please reply back as I’m looking to create my own personal blog and would love to find out
where you got this from or just what the theme is called.
Dojuniko, but its not been updated in a while…
You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be actually something
which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and extremely broad for me.
I’m looking forward for your next post, I’ll try to get the hang of this Web 2.0 thing!
