After the sexy girls cleaning your iPhone screen we can announce you another useless application, game, for the iPhone: iBacon [iTunes link]. There’s not much to say about the game other than that it allows you to show off your bacon baking skills on your iPhone. And it’ll rip you off for $1.19. Dept. of Uselessness as far as I am concerned, not because we don’t like bacon here at FG. we love bacon, if used interestingly but this is just another stupid money costing app. Read more »

Nanda Alarm Clock On Wheels
I have always had a problem getting up in the morning. I still recall when I was in grade school and my mom would have a heck of a time getting me out of bed and at the dining table. I have my own place now, mom lives miles away, and getting up in the morning is still as much of a struggle as it was back then.

Food keyboard: chocolate and biscuits
Food and IT go hand in hand. If you manage to combine both in to one item you’re on the right path. I had to grin when I saw this s’mores keyboard. Sadly there is no indication of any functionality or if it really is made out of food or just plastic. Seems like we’ll have to stick to the chocolate chess game or all the shot drinking board games.
