How to improve Google Image Search?

jimmybop — Sun, 20 Jan 2008 02:08:18 +0000

So how do you improve Google’s Image Search?? Why, you turn it into a game. Thats right… it is Google’s new “Google Image Labeler” game. You and a random partner on the internet get shown the same photo. You both type in key words until you match a word. The better the word, the more points. It is a pretty interesting concept and it could just work. Go try it out! http://images.google.com/imagelabeler/

That’s How You Know (Video plus lyrics)

jimmybop — Sat, 08 Dec 2007 03:53:30 +0000

This is a song that will be stuck in your head all day…. because that is what happened to me today…. Awesome movie, awesome song… check it out, “That’s How You Know” From Disney’s latest movie “Enchanted”:

Lyrics (note Lyrics are for Soundtrack version of the song and not this clip… but still the same with out the comments during the song):

Giselle:
How does she know you love her?
How does she know she’s yours?

Man:
How does she know that you love her?

Giselle:
How do you show her you love her?

Both:
How does she know that you really, really, truly love her?
How does she know that you love her?
How do you show her you love her?
How does she know that you really, really, truly love her?

Giselle:
It’s not enough to take the one you love for granted
You must remind her, or she’ll be inclined to say…
“How do I know he loves me?”
(How does she know that you love her?
How do you show her you love her?)
“How do I know he’s mine?”
(How does she know that you really, really, truly love her?)

Well does he leave a little note to tell you you are on his mind?
Send you yellow flowers when the sky is gray? Hey!
He’ll find a new way to show you, a little bit everyday
That’s how you know, that’s how you know!
He’s your love…

Man:
You’ve got to show her you need her
Don’t treat her like a mind reader
Each day do something to need her
To believe you love her

Giselle:
Everybody wants to live happily ever after
Everybody wants to know their true love is true…
How do you know he loves you?
(How does she know that you love her?
How do you show her you need her?)
How do you know he’s yours?
(How does she know that you really, really, truly-)

Well does he take you out dancin’ just so he can hold you close?
Dedicate a song with words in
Just for you? Ohhh!

All:
He’ll find his own way to tell you
With the little things he’ll do
That’s how you know
That’s how you know!

Giselle:
He’s your love
He’s your love…

That’s how you know
(la la la la la la la la)
He loves you
(la la la la la la la la)
That’s how you know
(la la la la la la la la)
It’s true
(la la la la la)

Because he’ll wear your favorite color
Just so he can match your eyes
Rent a private picnic
By the fires glow-oohh!

All:
His heart will be yours forever
Something everyday will show
That’s how you know
(That’s how you know)
That’s how you know
(That’s how you know)
That’s how you know
(That’s how you know)
That’s how you know
(That’s how you know)
That’s how you know
(That’s how you know)
That’s how you know
(That’s how you know)
That’s how you know!

Giselle:
He’s your love…

Man:
That’s how she knows that you love her
That’s how you show her you love her

Giselle:
That’s how you know…
That’s how you know…
He’s your love…

Keep Moving Foward

“Meet the Robinsons” has just be released to DVD this week and had a very wonderful quote at the end. I was very excited when I saw this in the theater and I am sure I will be excited when I see it again soon.

Here is the quote by Walt as it was in the movie:

“Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long. We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things… and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.”

Here is the actual full quote that I randomly found somewheres online months ago:

Theres really no secret about our approach. We keep moving forward opening up new doors and doing new things because were curious. And curiosity keeps leading us down new paths. Were always exploring and experimenting. At WED, we call it Imagineering the blending of creative imagination with technical know-how.
