Thanks for all the girls helping out on this project I look forward to seeing what you all come up with for the final design. We are also making a widget of this blog so everyone can keep track of the posts via there desktops and we are designing a logo which we will then turn into buttons and other cool stuff.

1. Make the site multi lingual

2. Make a mobile version of the site

3. Make an account with all news subscribers so no matter what service you use you can get our information.

4. Start adding photo via Photobucket

5. Start adding videos via Google You Tube and Yahoo video

And for now that is what we hammered out on the first meeting like I said it was brief and there was a lot of hello nice to meet you stuff going on which is great but time consuming.As for topics we plan on covering in the next meeting the working group can find them in your email accounts because I just sent them As for you the reader please let us know if there is a service or something we do not offer that you would like to see on this website.

That high school math problem with a page-long solution was a cakewalk compared to a recent mathematics answer that would ink an area the size of Manhattan if written out in small print.

A total of 18 mathematicians and computer scientists from several countries worked for four years to successfully map the inner working of one of the most complicated structures in math, a 248-dimensional object. The findings were reported today by the American Institute of Mathematics.

It was discovered over a century ago, in 1887, and until now, no one thought the structure could ever be understood, said project leader Jeffrey Adams, a mathematician at the University of Maryland. This groundbreaking achievement is significant both as an advance in basic knowledge, as well as a major advance in the use of large-scale computing to solve complicated mathematical problems.

The mapping of E8, according to researchers, may very well have unforeseen implications in mathematics and physics which wont be evident for years to come.

Underlying symmetrical objects such as spheres and cylinders is something called a Lie group a mathematical group invented by the 19th century Norwegian mathematician Sophus Lie to study symmetry. E8 is an example of a Lie group.

This is an exciting breakthrough, said Peter Sarnak, a researcher at Princeton University. Understanding and classifying the representations of E8 and Lie groups has been critical to understanding phenomena in many different areas of mathematics and science, including algebra, geometry, number theory, physics and chemistry. This project will be invaluable for future mathematicians and scientists.

The result of E8 and all its representations is 60 gigabytes in size, enough to store 45 continuous days of music in MP3 format. In comparison, the Human Genome Project holding the entire genetic code of a cell is less than a gigabyte in size.

from the geek zine:

I know HTML code, I made a website for my dog, I borderline worship Leonard Nimoy, I can beat you at Guitar Hero, and I plan my life around Adult Swim even though I have TiVo.

Right now I am leaning toward she’s a stripper, if anyone knows more of her details let me know, it would be interesting to see how today’s women geeks are more provocative than those I went to school with.

Of course the preview action makes it look like supermodels hanging with nervous geeks.. Someone should do a show like this with women geeks and have some male models that we could make nervous

I can imagine the Paris may be a hardcore gamer, she can certainly afford big HD televisions and probably has all the top game systems… should this earn her aplace in the top ten geeks? I don’t think so, although there are other top tens she might be featured in for along time, including one of yahoo’s top ten all time searches for 2006, it will be interesing to see if she is still int he top 10 in say 2009..

I would definitely sport a few of these geek girl shirts from cafe press..
