For a couple of projects I want to run I wanted to set up a Jupyter notebook server.

I recently came across OpenCV, a very exciting open source Computer Vision livrary with nifty interfaces in C++, Python, Java and Matlab.

Using Android phones (and probably iPhones) you can now take cool PhotoSpheres. These are easy enough to upload to Google Maps with Street View, or to embed on your website, however if you feel like sharing them on YouTube or Facebook, Google has not (yet) made this straightforward.
