Something is missing at the moment. I don’t feel that drive… Perhaps it’s the sudden change in weather; that with a little bit of PMS usually messes me up. Tomorrow’s going to be up in the 80’s, just like today. I shouldn’t be surprised. Unusual weather is not uncommon here in San Francisco. Or it may just be due to the long hours and overwhelming nature of several projects going on at once… Who knows?

Mit speziellen Windows-Programmen kann man dem Dinosaurier neue Kunststücke beibringen. Dazu wird er eine neue Persönlichkeit einfach auf eine übliche SD-Speicherkarte kopiert und diese dann dem Pleo verfüttert. Wer Geduld hat, bringt Pleo das Singen bei.

But I saw something really cool today, and this was the only way I could think to remember to get one later. So, there’s this pixel art group, called eboy, that does really cool looking pixelated art. Im sure you’ve seen their stuff in many places in various print,tv,and online media. They’ve recently created a new piece of artwork that kind of sums up a lot of Los Angeles, but into a 3 block radius.

The new software update is fun, what with the coughing and singing and all, but the novelty has worn off and I figured I'd get a decent amount for him still and recoup some of the expense. I've taken him out in public once and the amount of anthropomorphizing I witnessed was fairly depressing. Applause to Ugobe. They did their job brilliantly designing this guy to be adorable.

That hardly says much, because this little creature surpasses other tamaguchi-style toys. According to the creators, each Pleo will "learn" from its experiences and environment through a sophisticated artificial intelligence and develop an individual personality. It's also very cute. Too bad it costs 350 USD. Seems like a hefty price tag. I suppose the price will drop with time, but it will still remain an expensive toy.

I’ll admit, I was apprehensive about the procedure. Altering a computer’s OS can result in side effects, and in Pleo’s case, there are no external controls. If this firmware update failed, I could have ended up with a lifeless, rubber-skinned chew toy.

During Maker Faire 2008, a middleweight ComBot known as Vicious Verdict was placed in the ring with UGOBE’s cuddly dinosaur, and suffice it to say, Pleo didn’t stand a chance. The entire death lasts about three minutes, but there’s a solid minute of taunting that goes on before the ComBot starts the decimation process.
