It's not like GT offers a "Turf Management" degree.

All these articles and stories about GT having all this research crap....its not worth it. Go somewhere easier. I'm sitting in chemistry  considering my final coming and am rethinking my decisions for attending Tech. Do yourself a favor and save what little normalness is left in your life. Don't exchange it for nerd-dom.<br><br>This group was test group E03. They used psychological torture for motivation of this group. Considering the positive results, I forsee I'll be subjected to the same within a year. Wish me luck.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ben]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:37AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Georgia Tech develops gesture system for cellphone games]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/07/georgia-tech-develops-gesture-system-for-cellphone-games/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/07/georgia-tech-develops-gesture-system-for-cellphone-games/</guid><description><![CDATA[Oh, and I almost forgot to mention...<br>TO HELL WITH GEORGIA!!!<br><br>:p.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ben]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:37AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Georgia Tech develops gesture system for cellphone games]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/07/georgia-tech-develops-gesture-system-for-cellphone-games/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/07/georgia-tech-develops-gesture-system-for-cellphone-games/</guid><description><![CDATA[I didn't want to subject myself to nerd-dom, nor living in downtown ATL, that's why I didn't go to GT. However, my normal friends that did go to Tech where all in the management college. I wanted a specialized business degree, not to mention girls, so I went to UGA. Tech and UGA are both outstanding schools, you really can't argue with what the HOPE has done here in Georgia.<br><br>The basketball game should be interesting tonight. We'll see what happens.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ryan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:37AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Georgia Tech develops gesture system for cellphone games]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/07/georgia-tech-develops-gesture-system-for-cellphone-games/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/07/georgia-tech-develops-gesture-system-for-cellphone-games/</guid><description><![CDATA[So basically they just copied VTT:s work?<br>http://www.vtt.fi/multimedia/presents/SymBall-article.pdf<br>(pdf-alert)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[masmad]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:37AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Georgia Tech develops gesture system for cellphone games]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/07/georgia-tech-develops-gesture-system-for-cellphone-games/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/07/georgia-tech-develops-gesture-system-for-cellphone-games/</guid><description><![CDATA[Actually, at link-u mobile we wrote a game named 'Antar' that did the same thing about a year ago ... and it was in Java, using special tricks with the Nokia API to get fast capture.  <br><br>Oh well, you look like an idiot playing it, but it's fun :-) There was also another game by a german company where you could chase virtual flies.

There was an add-on for GameBoy, an SD card for Palm, and so on.  They all failed.  The motion interface is hard to control precisely, it's erratic at best if you're riding in a moving vehicle like a train or bus, and most importantly it's very hard to see the screen when you're wiggling the device all over the place.  Screens are supposed to stay in one place when we're looking at them.  <br><br>I try never to say any technology has zero chance, but this sort of interface has to overcome huge barriers in order to succeed.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mike M.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:37AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Georgia Tech develops gesture system for cellphone games]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/07/georgia-tech-develops-gesture-system-for-cellphone-games/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/07/georgia-tech-develops-gesture-system-for-cellphone-games/</guid><description><![CDATA[And how are you supposed to focus on the screen if your waving it around?
