The next Red Bull F1 team strikes back with a brand new website. Our intention was to involve the user in such a way that he is really feeling close to what is happening on the race track.

The relaunch shows the usual Less Rain tuning (friendly Search Engine Optimization (SEO) , Alternate HTML version optimized for ScreenReader, Back Button, Deeplinking).

Sound design by Taeji Sawai, straight from Japan.

This is not about sophisticated flash games with use of physics and 3D, this is more about building a very special game. Read more here.

The past two weeks loads of new things have happened around, I’m not talking about Adobe Apollo which it’s public alpha release has been already covered for the whole week all over the place without interruption.

The week started in a new office with loads of work to do, new people coming in, and the discovery of a new (I mean ‘new’ for me) music band which maybe is not ‘Avant garde enough’ for some people, but caught my attention dramatically.

This week I had the opportunity to play for the first time with the Nintendo Wii . Yes, I’m aware that playing with the Wii is nothing specially new , but I’m coming from a place where important things are around this instead of the latest video game technology, so my delay in this matter is completely understandable.
I have been thinking for weeks to buy a new PS3 but after playing with the Nintendo Wii I have decided that my money is going to end up in Nintendo’s pocket rather than Sony’s bault.

In terms of work and ‘Flashy stuff’ as I wrote above, the release of Apollo public beta hasn’t been in my priority list since I don’t have time to play around with it. This does NOT mean that I consider Apollo a good tool or not, I just simply don’t know and I don’t need Apollo for my daily work yet (I would give it a try soon).

Three blog entries from 3 different blogs in my daily “must read because this guys can go bananas” list caught my attention last week when I think in ‘Flashy stuff’, all of them are related with flash and 3D:

• Papervision3D runs inside a commercial project for the first time, Read more here.
• WiiFlash and Papervision3D, pitch and roll rotations. Read more here.
• AS 3 Biped Rig by the almighty Jim Armstrong, I just can’t wait to see the final result of this project.
  BTW: Do not miss his online publications, specially the Computational Geometry TechNotes.
