Don’t mind me, I’m just a harmless little shrub… on wheels… with a stalker inside… taking pictures of you bent over. The Terrestrial Shrub Rover, built by Justin Shull, is a movable shrub with enough room inside for one person and three LCD cameras (or about 300 of these mini-cams). A remote webcam version is still on the workbench. Hit ...

I was a little too old to really go crazy over Pokemon, but I have played a few of the games. Never got into the whole trading card thing either. I was a Magic: The Gathering guy. Pokemon cards were about a generation too late for my interest. But there’s no denying the inherent cuteness (for the most part) and ...

Some have stated that they wouldn’t be caught dead wearing this shirt beyond a comic conference or the like, but me? Well let’s just say I’ve been known to rock my Michael Jackson Red Jacket t-shirt out in public with no shame. So really, this could really boost my coolness. The Iron Man 2 Comic Chest T-Shirt, available for around ...

A few months back we posted about a Star Wars novel like no other. Death Troopers, a tale about zombie Stormtroopers on the hunt for Jedi brains.

Poor Artoo has really gone through a lot the last few years since we publisher our first post back in 2006. From his image being branded on the sides of mailboxes to being used to peddle trash cans to messy geeks, we can’t say R2-D2 has gotten much of a fair deal as far as his image goes. But this ...

With Steve Jobs’s unveiling of the iPhone 4 at yesterday’s WWDC, the modern smartphone battleground was just cranked up a notch. Apple’s newest launch into the mobile stratosphere has already spurred much speculation of which phone will ultimately win the smartphone battle. Looking at all of the stats, I don’t think there’s much competition. AT&T just needs to get their ...

I dare you to find a family portrait cooler than this one that doesn’t feature bacon. The bayonet to mustache ratio really does it for me. Link

Interestingly enough, AT&T is currently down for maintenance, right after Steve Jobs’ keynote at WWDC 2010. I’m wondering whether they’re updating the iPhone users’ upgrade dates, since Jobs promised that AT&T users within six months of their upgrade will be able purchase the iPhone 4 at the subsidized price. Either that or AT&T is freaking the hell out because of ...

While much like our friends over at Gizmodo, we weren’t invited to Steve Jobs’ WWDC 2010 keynote, we followed the event close, so here’s a recap of what you might have missed, filtering out all of the typical craptastic self-promotion. Netflix app coming to the iPhone, the full Netflix experience. Watch Instant Stream movies, resume on different device. Out this ...
