Like a lot of geeks out there I have a constant stream of crap being shipped to me from various internet companies. But I’m getting sick of just chucking all of the cardboard away. There has to be something productive we can create using all of our excess boxes. And then I came across this and I had a “Eureka!” ...

An excellent idea for adding some extra depth into your home or apartment, a simple black vinyl wall sticker can transport your light switch into a 3D optical illusion. I’m sure you could pull this off with some plain black tape. You probably don’t even need to buy a special kit for this.

The big news this Friday is that MMS is finally coming to the coveted iPhone, which is great, because I’m sick of hearing people bitch about it. We actually thought we’d see MMS enabled with the big 3.0 update, but nope, took a few more months than expected while AT&T got their shit together. Let’s all get MMS, send off ...

I’m pretty sure it’s not ‘shopped. What an incredible shot! The photo shows a praying mantis devouring a humming bird. Don’t know how this happened or the circumstances around the photo, but all I can say is… wow. Link

Perhaps the best use of auto-tune since the release of the iPhone’s I Am T-Pain application, this segment of Carl Sagan’s Cosmos features Stephen Hawking and Sagan himself getting down with their bad selves. Link

KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN! Link

Even Mario loves making some extra bling bling on the side. And that’s exactly what you get in those secret warp levels in Super Mario Bros. (if you’ve ever seriously played the game you know what I’m talking about). Just take a jump down the right pipe and profit. These excellent and super stylish Warp Zone socks remind you that ...

Star Wars fan and tangled wire advocate Brian De Vitis managed to have one of the greatest brainstorm ideas ever. Why not take every console I own (all eight of them) and stuff them all into that R2-D2 replica I’ve had sitting around the house. Well, EVERYONE has the supplies needed for this project. No excuses. Grab your droid and ...
