A while ago when I was browsing through the MKP blog, I saw this post. He figured out how to make his websites bookmark look like an app icon. I totally forgot about it until a few days ago, and remembered how much I wanted to do the same thing. So I did…..
You can follow the same instruction he gives in the pic at the top to get the icon on your phone: go to http://tecknicolor.com and add it to your home screen.
I have been wanting cars to fly since I was born (yes, I remember back that far). The fact that almost nothing from the Jetsons, a cartoon from the 70′s, is a reality in 2009 makes me pretty upset. The Skycar Expedition 2009 is attempting to make at least one of my Jetson’s dreams come true. This car completed the journey from London to Tombouctou, that started in January and ended in March. They’re pretty close to making the Skycar the worlds first, practical, road going, flying car.
Why Tombouctou? It is steeped in mystery and has been a prized destination for travelers and explorers for many years, and for good reason: it’s not easy to get to.
In “fly mode” the car will have:
- a take-off speed of 60 kmph
- a top speed of 110 kmph
- a range of 300 km.
- a cruising altitude of 2000 – 3000 ft
- a maximum altitude of 15,000 ft.
In “road mode” the car will have:
- independent 4 wheel suspension
- rear wheel drive
- acceleration from 0-100 kmph in 4.5 seconds
- a top speed of 180 kmph
- a range of 400 km.
You can put a down payment on your SkyCar today for $16,338 or reserve one for $81, 700.
