Hugh Pickens writes "Stargazing skies all over the world are disappearing, as the sky above New York City is Class 9 on the Bortle ranking and American suburban skies are typically Class 5, 6, or 7. But some places are making an effort to preserve their skywatching heritage as Exmoor National Park was granted International Dark-Sky Reserve status in November and people in the Exmoor town of Dulverton were challenged to switch off their lights as part of the BBC's Stargazing Live, demonstrating that you don't need special equipment to see the stars more clearly, if you have a decent pair of binoculars. 'The whole idea is to show that even a small town, which is still quite dark, can give off quite a lot of light,' says astronomer Mark Thompson. The event in Dulverton gained a lot of support from local residents and businesses. 'It needed a bit of organization to get everyone to say yes,' says town mayor Chris Nelder. 'We want people to just enjoy the night sky, to treasure the fact we have them and to look after them,' adds Claire O'Connor from Exmoor National Park Authority."

waderoush writes "Some of the coolest media technologies predate the Web and the PC — in fact, they predate the 20th century. My column in Xconomy explores the world of 19th-century stereoscopes and stereo views, which are the all-but-forgotten forerunners to anaglyphic 3D, VR goggles, and other modern stereo vision systems. As it turns out, it's pretty easy to 'free-view' vintage stereo images on an iPhone or other small screen, getting the full 3-D effect without any other viewing aids. The article has instructions for accessing a collection of old stereo images using the new Seadragon Mobile iPhone app from Microsoft Live Labs." The stereoscope, that killer technology of the last century but one, was invented in 1859 by Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr., who gave it away and never made a dime off it. If you don't have an iPhone and want to get the feel of free viewing on a computer monitor, start here at Roush's Flickr photostream.Read more of this story at Slashdot.

The Car Connection is supporting a claim that the General's planning to unveil a drop-top version of the Camaro concept in Detroit next month. If all goes according to hearsay, the Camaro will hit the market in 2009, which means two more years to wait for it and its pony partners, Dodge's Challenger and whatever Ford does with the Mustang -- to emerge. C'mon people, we've been ready to go since this summer. What can we say -- we're an impatient lot. – Ray Wert

In a fascinating post that highlights another use for Googles transcoding technology that re-parses pages for the smaller screens of mobile, T.V. Raman, an authority on auditory technologies who himself is sightless, explains how he uses the simplifying effect of Googles transcoding tool for mobile (located here: http://www.google.com/m) to help him navigate complex web pages.He points out that while useful for people that may be stymied by a complex web page because they cannot see it, this tool can be equally useful for sighted developers who are developing websites that will also have an auditory component or those that are working with screen readers which apparently also struggle with overly complex web sites.While not strictly mobile I thought this was a very interesting use of a tool that was developed principally for making the web more accessible to tiny screens and devices with limited capabilities. Its fascinating to realize that the very thing which is developed for a limited device actually removes limitations for other technologies.Tags: google, Raman, audible interfaces, screen readersaSource: http://mobilecrunch.com/2006/11/20/google-technologist-tv-raman-on-using-googles-mobile-interface-to-see-the-audible-web/ Oliverhttp://www.softwareheadlines.com/modules/planet/view.article.php/67757
