Guess who has a lot of free time and loves toys? If you said the Dutch government, you’d be correct my friend. These dudes love to build toy helicopters, attach sensors that sniff out cannabis and seek the stuff out in fields around the country. Seriously? You guys need a helicopter to find marijuana? It’s really not all that hard. ...

Another Monday, another rumor. This time around, “sources” are saying that the upcoming Palm Pre, complete with WebOS and all, is going to be available June 7th at Best Buy. However, this will be a limited rollout, with only 4500 units being available. The carrier? Sprint. And if that wasn’t bad enough, look at these pricing numbers being thrown around: ...

Back in 1994, I played a game that utilized Apple Quicktime to the fullest extent. It was hard as shit, looked beautiful and was called Myst. While I never got into the sequels, the original is the one that really brought the first-person puzzle genre to light. Now, if you’ve got an iPhone that’s hopefully 16GB, you can buy Myst ...

No need to chow down on beans to add a taste of musical culture to your dinner table. The Piano Graphics Tablecloth includes a border lined with the standard design of piano keys. Jam out to Miles Davis as you chow down on your mom’s meatloaf (which is way too dry by the way). Tell her to add some ketchup ...

Google has rented a herd of goats (not goatse) to clean the landscape of their Mountain View, California headquarters. Google has hired California Grazing, a company which specializes ...

The gang over at Cartoon Network’s Williams Street team has branched out from animation with a new clothing line called Finer Things. Right now, there’s only three Adult Swim-related garments up for grabs but they’re pretty cool. For $75, you can get a pair of preppy golf pants with the Mooninites all over ’em. There’s also a Robot Chicken hoodie ...

If only my father was half as cool as this guy. Pretty much every single day this father creates a new piece of art on his kids lunch bags. He uses his lunch break to craft these awesome drawings. Sometimes they are known characters, but most of the time the art is inspired by obscure cartoons or YouTube videos. He ...

Twitter is causing a hubbub across the globe as the next step in communication and social interaction. Your Twitter URL is now considered to be as sacred as YourName.com. For many, this is totally justifiable. Creating and promoting your online “personal brand” on Twitter is quickly becoming the modus operandi of the modern business man. Can you really and truly ...

The Shadow Caddy is helpful in that “I’m always watching you” stalkerish sort of way. Rather than hiring some lazy and pathetic pile of human flesh to disappoint you with his sub-par caddying skills, the hands-free Shadow Caddy follows you effortlessly by tracking a transmitter which is simply snapped right onto your belt. Plus, it really wants to make sweet ...
