Have you ever played poker against a blind guy? And not a poker blind, I’m talking a dude that literally can’t see. It’s super effective. All you have to do is peer over his shoulder to scope out his hand. You’ll know just when to fold ’em and when to hold ’em. Luckily for me I feel no guilt. In ...

Seeing as custom felt cases are quickly becoming the “cool thing” to have on your iPhone, I had no choice but to post this amazing first look at the hand embroidered Xbox 360 felt iPhone case and included key chain controller.

I’m in love with the subtle beauty of these two awesome t-shirt concepts. The Pac-Man shirt features Packy om-nomming your buttons while the Tetris tee shows a set of Tetris blocks at the base of the shirt, but my favorite part is the long vertical Tetris block used as the zipper.

The addition of a semi-intrusive joystick removes the need for the left side of the controller. An added mechanism on the rear of the controller manages the bumper action. While it’s not as pretty as some ...

If you’re still listening to cassette tapes, we might have some news for you. That music technology has been dead for like, a decade now. Hell, CDs aren’t even relevant anymore. Let me be even more blunt. If cassettes are already being used as ironic business card designs, than I think it’s safe to say they are past their prime. ...

Hey y’all. I know you probably just rolled out of bed or maybe just rolled into bed, depending on how dead-ass drunk you are, so this might not be the post you were looking for, but hey, it’s gotta be done! We just wanted to let you know that Gearfuse has finally made the jump to Facebook. We’d love if ...

A few months back I was interviewed by TrendHunter about Gearfuse, the blogging industry and the art of trends. I didn’t initially notice but the interview was posted back in mid-August!
