The “Heliodisplay“, from IO2Technology is a realworld ‘holographic’ projector that displays psudeo 3d interactive images and movies ala the scene in StarWars where R2D2 displays Princess Leia asking for help.
An extremely exciting project, the videos and media on Io2’s website blew me away…
…although I am a bit worried about what the the empire evil corporations advertising agencies will do with this technology.
(yes i know its not REAL 3d, but it’s damn close…)
Today is the future and it’s here. Where is my flying car?

You may notice a subtle difference round here, ‘cybo’ is gone, ‘jim barter’ is online, please update your bookmarks! (Both of you!)
I posted a while back about making this change, well now its done, ‘cybo’ will remain for a while, (unless someone wants to buy it!) then the domain will be parked.
The main reason behind this is that ‘cybo’ didn’t say anything about what this site really is, a personal space, wheras ‘jim barter’, obviously does
Also people were always asking me how to spell ‘cybo’ and this change will also help fight the amount of spam I was getting to ‘jim@cybo.co.uk’ which was getting way out of hand…
…want to email me? well try stuff with jimbarter.co.uk, you may get lucky

He didn’t stop when shouted. LIE.
He was wearing a bulky coat. LIE.
He jumped the ticket barrier. LIE.
He was just running for his train…
..our leaders and our law enforcement agencies lie to us everyday, this sad event is one more item in the litany of untuth espoused by those who are supposed to protect us and watch over us, there are no excuses for this, but we know what will happen, “bad inteligence” will be blamed, some minor functionary will be given a new job, this is not good enough.
Ultimately one man is responsible, Blair must stand down. Now.
