Thanks to Nina I have read this article telling that a free software (the result of several years of hard labour by a small team at Microsoft Research) has been launched today and will effectively turn every computer that downloads it into a mini-planetarium capable of displaying high resolution images of millions of stars, planets and other celestial bodies.
“The WorldWide Telescope (WWT) is a Web 2.0 visualization software environment that enables your computer to function as a virtual telescope?bringing together imagery from the best ground and space-based telescopes in the world for a seamless exploration of the universe.”

Sorry, but if your site does not have QR code you are not cool anymore!

“Say no to IE 6! Our current campaign focuses on assisting users in upgrading their Internet Explorer 6 web browser.
