How to measure time

cesium
chemical elementalso spelled caesium (Cs)

chemical element of Group 1 (also called Group Ia) of the periodic table, the alkali metal group, and the first element to be discovered spectroscopically (1860), by German scientists Robert Bunsen and Gustav Kirchhoff, who named it for the unique blue lines of its spectrum (Latin caesius, “sky-blue”).

Atomic cesium is employed in the world’s time standard, the cesium clock. The microwave spectral line emitted by the isotope cesium-133 has a frequency of 9,192,631,770 hertz (cycles per second). This provides the fundamental unit of time. Cesium clocks are so stable and accurate that they are reliable to 1 second in 1.4 million years. Primary standard cesium clocks, such as NIST-F1 in Boulder, Colo., are about as large as a railroad flatcar. Commercial secondary standards are suitcase-sized.

Currently there are 5 Atomic clocks around the world. 2 in Japan, 1 in the US, 1 in the UK and 1 in Germany.

Perhaps the following clocks are not as accurate but somehow they exude more charm, interest and fun.

Old Masters, new tricks

Hockney is using the iPhone to create mini art.

Come on Nokia et al, put your thinking caps on and try to develop something that has the appeal, flexibility, charm and robustness of the iPhone.

In the Crab studio we come across a new and inventive way of using the iPhone on a daily basis. From musical instruments to decesion making apps.

I use it to keep track of the websites we look after, to communicate via text, email, voice and VIOP, to entertain myself and my 3 year old.

This is truly the tri-corder of our times. I am looking forward to the release of the latest OS.

Twitterific, is fantastic

All of my mates are fed up with me banging on about Twitterific for the iPhone, but I don't care.

It used to have a fixed spot on my iPhone Springboard, it had a great look and was wonderfully easy... too easy. Once I got into Twitter a little more I needed an app to handle a few more of my Twitter needs. Tweetie fore filled these needs - but cost me - and Twitterific got bunked off. Now Twitterific is back! It's still got it's sexy black look but now has a host of new features. My two favourites being the Tweet sound it makes when it updates, and the conversation thread feature.

Check it out, you won't be disappointed.
