ŠPONGIA, web, flash, and why i wasnt writing.

So its official now!!



Today at lunch has been released the ŠPONGIA's topic. It's a puzzle game, which has main her, and this hero should talk on player.
If you don't know what ŠPONGIA is, skip this part. It is Športové Programovanie Oči Neodpudzujúcich Grafických Interaktívnych Aplikácií, Sport Programming of Eye-not-repeling grafical interactive applications, or simply ŠPONGIA (that means SPONGE) and it is named after PONG. This contest is organized by SMND and this is second vintage. Difference is that time for creating is not old 10 days, but 18 and there are two another schools (GJH and GAMCA, with SMND creating the 3 most advanced slovakian schools for Math and Informatics) and Mindek will not come ;). Jury will have for desission whole week (and not just half an hour).

Here is report from ŠPONGIA2006 with the games, here photos from the event and here is unofficial webpage.
About ŠPONGIA2007, everything is here smnd.sk/mikey. As you can see I'm in digital tribe team, that has another 4 members, and im there as 3d graphic. We are fighting with another 12teams and our product we need to give to judges until Monday, 22. October 12AM. Presentations will be at 29. October.
I can't say anything about our game yet, but you will see, and hope, you will like :)

Now i will explain why i didnt write for such time. Its simple. I dont have time.I was preparing for ŠPONGIA and now the ŠPONGIA started. The school started, and i must learn. I was making web (which i finished, too) so please visit sometimes yreg.co.nr. And i started to learn Flash. In Flash i made just one animation about famous school legend yet. And i visit a collet internet radio, but from it i cant give you any messages yet. It will be informational/fun and its for cadets of SMN, teachers and parrents. Im program director.
And i want to do one RPG in Flash with Aleks (code name pieneskejp) but thats far far away now. As you can see, im not bored. I think i wrote everything i wanted, so bye :)

The truth about Prostata and war3 instalation on SMND

Complete uncensored Jurwood's shrift. Just at yreg.blogspot.com

Konfluence

So, the school started, and here is my first fiction of this schoolyear. Our quest was to write fantasy apograph/recountal . I wrote work about artificial world habitated by beeings that human lifted from animals.
It is not my idea im describing world of Paul J. McAuley, where happens his saga about Konfluence. Of course i wrote it, its not just a copy or short version of book and some events i thought. But it is not fully original and not just inspiration. Its apograph. Imagine apograph of Prattchet's Flatland on 2pages. It's not copy, but no own work to. And thats probably destiny of apographs.

Read, its not long.

Google PageRank

PageRank is an algorhytm for rating the relevance of web sites designed in 1987 by Larry Page and Sergey Brinn. It is the base of Google search engine.

Algorhytm uses strusture of hypertext links as each other "recommendations"of webpages. The rating is not computed just from number of comming links , but from ranks of recomendating sites too.

If we wanna compute PageRank R(a) of site a, we could use scheme that looks like this:

where Ba is group of all pages linking on a, and Nu is number of links going from u. Basicly every site gives its rank to pages, that it links.

Problems with PageRank computing are closed site structures, on which links goes, but doesn't go out. For example two joined sites with link from outside on one of them would during the computing acumulate and will not release anything. This creates some kind of "trap", that Page and Brin calls "sink". Becouse of this is PageRank even more difficult, becouse it stops this sinks.
If you wanna compute Google PageRank for your site, you need to use Google Toolbar. But it is still not completely exact and it works just with IE or mofo. It looks like this:



PageRank is trademark of Google, Inc. and algorythm is patented (Patent USA 6285999) by Stanford University.

For webmaster is importing just that as height is your PageRank, as big importance gives Google to it. As height is importance, as height is the page placed in search result.Of course thats not the only criterium, Google has about 100 of them. Another advantage is that GoogleBot brows the sites with bigger PageRank more often. Google actualize PageRank in cca 3moths intervals.

We must admit that this is all hust a theory and noone without the deepest employers of Google knows for what purpous exactly PageRank is.
