You Are the Controller.

Introducing Project Natal, a revolutionary new way to play: no controller required.  See a ball? Kick it, hit it, trap it or catch it.  If you know how to move your hands, shake your hips or speak you and your friends can jump into the fun — the only experience needed is life experience.

Microsoft’s Project Natal is supposed to be the new way to play games. No controller required, is how it is being positioned.

What is truly amazing is the way, it introduces a new ( yet very old) concept: Natural User Interfaces. A new Man-machine interface that does not require keyboards, mice, trackpads, lightpens etc. You just need to be natural, behave as if you are interacting with another person, and you’re good to go.

You can watch this excellent demo:

Well, I learned pretty early that I must track visitors to my website. Its a good habit. And it pays off. Sometime later, I’ll write about the advantages of tracking. Right now I am excited about how easy it is to get it done!

I decided to use Long Tail Magic for web analytics. And Boy, was I amazed at the service. I went in for managed hosting and I got it installed on my server.

And in 3 minutes 2 seconds, Long Tail Magic was installed and running on my server

Long Tail Magic was installed in a Jiffy

Now I know exactly where my visitors come from, what browsers they use, what keywords they enter, and much more.

And that makes me a very happy webmaster.

I highly recommend it. You can give it a test drive and decide for yourself.
