I’m a big Leno fan and also a Conan fan. While it was hard for me to watch Leno give up the keys to The Tonight Show, I’m sure Conan will do just fine. Already he’s making me grin with his new backdrop, which is clearly inspired by the Mushroom Kingdom from the Mario Bros. titles. Did anyone catch this ...

NASA is more than a bunch of dorks launching satellites and Mars rovers. Now the government space agency is challenging Gatorade and Powerade by unveiling a new sports drink that’s appropriately titled “The Right Stuff.” It promises serious hydration, greater endurance and superior performance.

Personally, I’m happy with my iPhone 3G (though I am excited for the iPhone 3.0 OS) and WWDC isn’t too big of a deal to me. But to others, WWDC is everything.

The “Cap” Spray Can Nozzle Stool is an awesome ode to the purveyors and enthusiasts of graffiti. Designed by Don’t Feed The Swedes, this rad seat is a stand-alone piece of pop art all on its own. Slap a few Andy Warhol posters on your wall and you’ll be stylin’ like Kanye.
