Film script - guide books

I've writen a film script but it's a little naked in content and basic in structure. A friend recently suggested to these useful guide books to me:
The Guerilla Filmmaker's Handbook - Chris Jones, Genevieve Jolliffe

Story - Robert McKee

Checking out JIRA project tracker for software dev



It looks good and has some related tools. Mostly I've used bug trackers like Trac, Bugzilla, Mantis, Basecamp, this is just another interface to learn.

Super solar storm - pre warning on news


Super solar storm - pre warning on news... question is, are engineers and governments going to do anything to protect against this. While squatters try to occupy and protest, contributing nothing (slightly unrelated I know).

I got my Patented Propeller Prototype made

I got my Patented Propeller Prototype made, yay!
Now I'm looking for some help in product testing with fluid dynamics.

Before building a full scale product, I would like to optimise the design to produce a more efficient development of the design for further 3D modifications to blade shape.

I was thinking to try and optimise it for max speed around 6000 rpm (typical outboard motor rpm). Really I'd like to break the world water speed record and have other ideas around craft design but this is a first step.

I think this is a world first Augmented Reality (AR) Text To Speech (TTS) mobile interface.

I think this is a world first Augmented Reality (AR) Text To Speech (TTS) mobile interface. I'm been managing projects for layar in the past but have now switched to wikitude. I'm still working on this as I'd like to help blind people know what's around them. I'll keep spending my nights and overdraft on this till I have something really useful. Note the sound volume is very low but there is speech that happens when the user is viewing the object. Oh, and yes, I've also been in contact with computer vision glasses makers, waiting for video input to be added to mobiles also.
