There’s an interesting set of diagrams and discussion over at the Mozilla Wiki about adding multitouch and gesturing to Firefox.
It doesn’t mention what this is in response to — Apple MacBook multitouch trackpad, perhaps, or the increasing number of mobile devices with touchscreens — but of course it is dependent on associated hardware to work [...]
I was surprised to be picked to share a user-review for the Yamaha NeoHD. I had no idea what NeoHD was, and just thought that it was one of those average things that just makes an entertainment system look good. For a hefty price of US$500-US$800 I said “this has got to be a joke” [...]
I was too old to read Planet Terry the first time round but that didn’t stop me then, and it won’t stop me now.
Growth in netbook sales has fast overtaken that of full-fledged notebooks and desktop computers. After all, they’re inexpensive, really portable and they’re usually considered cool. But recent research cited by NY Times and Computerworld indicates that some netbook users are unsatisfied with their purchases.
The disappointment with netbooks — NPD analyst Stephen Baker preferred that term [...]
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 [...]
Amazing set of xray’ed games hardware by Flickr user Reintji.
More pictures after the jump.
Come to think of it, being a geek does not mean that you just buy anything you set your heart on without thinking about the price, right? As a matter of fact, most self proclaimed geeks I know also pride themselves on being able to find the best bargains for their geek gear. [...]
Today I received an interesting email from Alex Winston whose company has been developing a virtual joystick application for the iPhone and iPod touch.
It’s a prototype that allows Wolfenstein 3D to be controlled from a second device connected up using a crossover audio cable.
Seen yesterday at the Manchester Arndale Apple Store.
This really makes me want to laser etch my unibody MacBook
Why spend out money on fancy stands for your laptop and other equipment when you can do something like Sasha Djuric has and make your own.
His Universal magnetic stand photo stream shows how he took some old monitor stands plus the strong magnets from a defunct hard drive to create a compact music workstation for [...]
Many people dream of a romantic diner by candlelight and a bouquet of roses for Valentine’s Day. Your geek usually can be satisfied with much less: a pack of Mountain Dew cans, free pizza delivery and small gizmos. But what does your geek REALLY want?
Usually your geek also has some ‘out of the world’ wishes [...]
I was viewing my podcasts this morning when from CNet’s gadget review shows I saw the HP Mini 1000 review. Quite impressive piece of engineering here, looks like HP has learned a lot from the early netbook developers and well ironed out some of the “flaws” to birth the HP Mini 1000. Heard [...]
Yesterday, I got myself a new toy. I have been thinking on getting a new phone for a while now and found it harder than I thought it would be. With the proliferation of smart phones, I didn’t realize that settling on one choice would be that much of a task! After [...]
Apple’s Let’s Rock event has finished and Steve Jobs did not disappoint in announcing new revamps in its mammoth bestseller iPod line.
The announcements have been across the board with all of the iPod products. First is that the iPod Classic now has just a single model, the 120GB. The new model though is much slender [...]
Here’s something gamers are likely to drool over.
Nviida has combined four GeForce 7900 graphics processing units on an nForce4 SLI motherboard to produce Quad SLI technology for PCs.
Nvidia says the graphics horsepower generated in a PC using Quad SLI technology allows gamers to set their monitors to extreme HD resolutions, including 2560×1600.
Now you know where [...]
Pretty soon here I’m going to go out and buy a Mac Mini, and I’m going to equip it from scratch: new keyboard, monitor, and speakers. My mind is made up on all of those items but I know nothing about Bluetooth mice. After conducting a little research, I’m leaning towards the Logitech MX900. Reviews [...]
