I signed up to Twitter.

I've actually been on for a couple of weeks. But I finally figured out how it could be useful, aside from being a dumping ground for brief random thoughts.

For some time now (time = years) I've been talking about and working on a new version of BodyInflation.org. So I'm going to use Twitter to post updates on progress. I figure if I actually talk about what I'm doing and people are actually looking at it, I'll feel more motivation to get it finished.

You can follow along at https://twitter.com/LutherVKane and get a peek into what goes into building a site such as this.

For the past couple of days, a bunch of you were getting an error at login telling you that you needed to enable cookies.

If any of you continue to have problems logging in, email me.

Something for you 3D folks out there.

In the words of its creators, The purpose of MakeHuman is "to provide a versatile, professional and extremely specialized application for parametrical modeling of three-dimensional humanoid characters."

1) The software allows for some rather fascinating and bizarre deformations of the figures.

2) It's free.

Check it out.
