Calligraphy tool by Autodesk


SketchBook X by Autodesk

Autodesk is a company that develop the AutoCAD software. It is popular among the drafter for 2D drawings, thanks to its highly accurate precision and user friendly features.

A while ago, I tried to find a drawing app (FREE of course) for iOS that can be used for calligraphy writing. Meaning that the tip is slanted 30-45 degree. My search end up with the above app and believe me, this is the best app for calligraphy writing purpose.


This app allow you to heap of features (Pro Brushes, Art Brushes), at a price though.

But if you only looking for calligraphy, this is a perfect tool. Came with tip size control bar.

Nap while you work (NWYW)


A nice napping pod for Googlers.


Nap while you work (NWYW), read [yawn].

Even Googlers are highly recommended to do this at work. Don't believe me? The above image is the proof. This is the photo inside the Google office in Taiwan.

Furthermore, I recently attended a seminar called 'Secrets of Highly Successful Research Students' lead by an infamous motivator in Australia, Maria Gardiner. She said this short nap during the noon is helpful to refresh the body.

But the nap should be 30-60 minutes long. More than 90 minutes nap will effect your body in opposite.

Give it a go!


This is a rocket science!

Rosetta space explorer was launched in year 2004 to run after a comet. It took 10 long years to get there and the smaller robot Philae will be deployed in November. This robot will extend the human senses to touch the comet (Comet 67P/Churymov-Gerasimenko) surface.

It is amazing that our sense is stretched many million of kilometers and yet can be controlled remotely from a control station on earth.

And here is your Rosetta Spacecraft sketch.

Good apples


Know your apple. 

Mac as we know it is a name of an apple breed or cultivar. McIntosh is the full name. Eat this, it is called Mahs X domestica Borkh too [click here]. 
McIntosh bears fruit annually and it is known as multi-purpose apple.

The original apple with McIntosh name is founded by John McIntosh as early as 1811 [Wikipedia].

Zooooom!!!




Paper app by 53 'Zoom' tool. One word. Awesome!



This tool of course will make your life easier. The team updated this feature recently, where your brush (or pen/marker/pencil) stroke will be in appropriate size corresponding to the zoom loupe expansion. To put it in another words, this app is a step closer to real world experience.

Enjoy!
