Head tracking for VR with the Wii remote

It's pretty freaking neat. I think someone needs to write an SF love story about a couple who can't touch, but can see each other through such a virtual window. Thanks to Chriz for the link.

Flight Gear 1.0.0 is finally out

I've been waiting for this for a while now. Flight Gear is a free, fully featured flight sim created by volunteers. While it's not as graphically polished as the juggernaut of Flight Simulator X, it's got really good flight modeling and is quite fun. It also supports multiplayer. Check out the screenshot gallery!

You can find the download links (there are three mirrors) under "Quick Links" on the Flight Gear homepage. It's only about 175MB.
