LaTeX, BibTex, multibib and TeXlipse ramblings

Some wise, intelligent and deeper toughts on AR and VR

Hi all,

I want to share some media, which I got recently on two mailing lists I'm subscribed to, with you.

The first Video was posted by Puneet Kishor on Geowanking mailing list.

Bruce Sterling is pondering on AR. Really intelligent and very wise. Just some other view angles then just the technical ones on the topic. Very good!

This is normally bad news fro Linux users like me. But luckily there is wine.
