Frustrated singers and dancers here is something for you! (Yeah, this one’s for me, too.) Have you ever felt like pulling your hair out by the roots due to the lack of music while you’re doing your business in the shower? Well, be frustrated no more with the Juke Tower from TokyoFlash. Read more »
Who wants $250,000? I sure do! Off the top of my head, I can name more things than I can count that I can do with that much money. This amount – £172,000 – is actually well within your reach IF you know the person behind the Conficker worm. This worm started circulating in October of 2008 and has since then infected countless computers – we’re talking of millions here – all over the world. Read more »
I saw this new USB Drive design down at Office Max today. Admittedly I looked closely because I thought it was a toy wrongly placed in the gadget aisle. As I came close I realized it was a 2GB USB drive designed as a skateboard. I think my nephew, Jonathan, would like this as a birthday gift next week. He love’s skateboarding, now that the snow has melted and the sidewalk generally has turned dry. The Santa Cruz skateboard company teamed up with the nerds at Action Sport Drives and used actual graphics from Santa Cruz skateboards. You can order online at Tiger Direct for about US$22.

Apple Stores would soon compete with Microsoft Stores with Microsoft announcing the thrust to open Microsoft Stores in the following months world wide. This effort “to help shoppers make smarter decisions about spending money on technology”, remarks newly appointed VP for retail stores David Porter. With recession biting deeper on worldwide economy, I think Microsoft anticipate consumers to think twice before purchasing any tech item. A $500 notebook vs. a $1,000+ counterpart is a valid option to know. It’s “The Gurus” vs. “The Genius Bar” too in the customer-service representatives arena. We can expect pleasant Microsoft smiles from BestBuy. These gurus will be answering questions about PCs and Microsoft products, as well as Read more »

To review the whole reimagined series before they reach the ultimate climax, we thought it were time to round up all the characters and publish a list of our 15 Best Battlestar Galactica Characters.The list is based on the complexity of the characters and their persona. It played no role if the character only appeared in only some episodes. 15. Lee “Apollo” Adama Read more »

After yesterday’s Lego-day, today seems to be the day of the Dept. of WTF. Another addition to this category is the pink Mickey Mouse mobile phone. Complete with Bluetooth, color LCD screen, 1GB of internal memory and FM radio. Where people might think it’s cute for kids… and it’s pink, I think it’s a bag of ugliness and certainly doesn’t fit in any kind of pockets either. Joke wants it that the model is perfect for body-builders though. If you are a real Mickey nerd and absolutely must have one of these, you can get your Yeedong M669 Mini Phone With Bluetooth & Camera here. Read more »
Straight from the Dept. of WTF comes the first phone with wind recognition. Yes, wind recognition. Korean provider Pantech has announced the world first phone with Wind Recognition, the IM-S410 from SKT or IM-S410K from KTF. Apparently this phone is able to recognize the amount of ‘wind blow’, its sensivity and dynamic through it’s microphone. This can then be used in internal applications like photo applications and games. A simple example would be to blow on an emoticon during a phone call and it would be automatically send to the person on the other end. If technology continues at this rate and level of insanity, I sense that the first Read more »
