]]> How to Hack Kinect (Officially) chris.pirillo.com The Minority Report featured some incredible theoretical technologies, some of which have continued to interest geeks for years. One of these technologies was a system in which you are able to interact with the user-interface with a few hand gestures Now, imagine if you were able to control Windows 7 in much the same way? LockerGnome community member Kevin Connolly has managed to recreate this using the Kinect SDK in a project he calls the KinectNUI (Natural User Interface). Currently, the project works with a single Kinect and any modern Windows PC. You can find out more information and download a copy of the project's source code here: go.tagjag.com You can see a whole series on the KinectNUI project on Kevin's YouTube channel: www.youtube.com Please feel free to leave a video comment demonstrating your use of the Kinect SDK or the KinectNUI project. chris.pirillo.com lockergnome.com http

]]> Who Has a Windows Phone 7? www.lockergnome.com - Even with all the rumors about Microsoft testing Windows Phone 8 (WP8) with various CPUs and smartphone manufacturers such as Samsung hoping to demonstrate WP8 phones by the end of the year, there's a good chance we won't see many (or any) WP8 devices this year. If you're not an early adopter, you'll probably sit out the first generation of WP8 phones anyway, waiting for any bugs in Microsoft's next phone operating system to be ironed out before you take a chance on the platform. And now that it appears that there won't be a direct upgrade path from Windows Phone 7 (WP7) to WP8, if you were ever planning on diving into WP7, that time is now. Why wait for Windows Phone 8?

]]> Why You Should Join Empire Avenue - a Social Media Exchange go.tagjag.com chris.pirillo.com Social Media is all the rage. And if you disagree, then you shouldn't be on YouTube - where Social Media comes alive in the form of video media. Hey, don't blame me! I'm not a huge fan of the phrase, but that doesn't mean I don't love the tools. So, I tweet on Twitter. I post on Facebook. I upload to YouTube. I share on LinkedIn. I divulge more information on my blog. I am active. Constantly. Everywhere. I'm social, even though I seldom leave my house (damn this fear of sunshine). Until now, there was no true way for you to exact an exact value from my participation in this new form of media (participatory). Sure, you might get some value from watching my videos, reading my Twitter updates, scanning the Facebook fan page, scoping out the RSS feed from my blogs, etc. - but what does it all mean? Empire Avenue may finally place a virtual value on my social media activity. You can invest in me, using virtual currency (eaves) - and for every comment I post, every video I upload, every song I sing - well, okay... not the singing, so much - for virtually everything that I do online, you'll be able to gain value as a shareholder of my stock ticker symbol on Empire Avenue. The account is free, and you really don't have to do anything different than what you're doing now. Participating on YouTube generates value for you AUTOMATICALLY on Empire Avenue, and for anybody who becomes a shareholder in you. Grab PIRILLO while the price is still low - as I <b>...</b>

]]> What is the First Social Network You Ever Joined? chris.pirillo.com This question was asked by the community, and though I'm sure this might refer to sites like Twitter or Facebook, social online communities existed well before the social networks we know today. In the late 80s and early 90s, BBS (Bulletin Board Systems) were set up by enthusiasts and opened up for people to connect to through a modem connection. Back then, modems were considerably slower. A 2400 baud modem was common during the height of BBS popularity, and only folks with a good amount of disposable income went for the only slightly faster 9600 baud speed modems. When logged in to a BBS, you were able to do all kinds of things. You could play games (referred to as door games), which were generally multiplayer and allowed you to play with and/or against other people. Trade Wars 2002 (still playable in some places online) was the most popular of these games, giving users the ability to pilot starships in a Star Trek parody environment. Graphics were rare, and the ones that you did find were ASCII art (a method of using text to create an image). Through a BBS, you could also send and receive a form of email, leave messages on forums hosted on the BBS, download software and images, and more. You can share your first social networking experience and ask more questions here: lockergnome.net What was your first social networking experience? chris.pirillo.com http twitter.com

]]> How to Avoid ATM 'Card-Trapping' Theft KnowBe4.com - Did you know that thieves are actually stealing ATM cards from the very machines we use to get money from the bank? By placing a small device on the slot used by ATMs to avoid skimming (another method of theft) these crafty thieves can actually make away with your card. They grab your PIN by either looking over your shoulder or placing an otherwise unnoticeable overlay on the buttons that captures your impression when entering your pin. Once you've walked away from the ATM to call the bank and complain and have your card deactivated, it only takes seconds for the thief to retrieve your card and grab your cash. KnowBe4, a leader in security and fraud prevention through education, has advised everyone to take some additional steps to avoid becoming a victim of this form of theft. First, only use ATMs at your bank and/or a trusted branch near you. ATMs sitting outside of a club or at the corner of a busy street are prime targets for would-be thieves that would take advantage of the lessened security at those locations. When an ATM appears to keep your card, call your bank immediately and don't leave the ATM. Have your card deactivated right there, and don't leave until it's done. ATMs do keep cards from time to time as a security measure, especially if a PIN was entered incorrectly on multiple occasions, but you shouldn't assume anything before leaving the ATM. www.lockergnome.com You can find out more about KnowBe4 and their services by visiting their website <b>...</b>
