Update On Michael Arrington’s Internet Tablet
Oh gosh. I thought he’d given up on this with the economy and all. Guess not. He’s still working on that Internet tablet prototype that he came up with last summer. Now he has a new model called “Revision B” that is going to cost $299 or more. It’s ugly, it runs Ubuntu and weighs three fucking pounds. At this ...

The cat is back! Check out this wacky bed that’s shaped just like a cheeseburger. It was obviously created by some Internet-loving hipsters who had enough time and skill to craft such a bed.

Look here, Batman. I know you’ve got the girl, you’ve got the money and you’ve got the ride. Great. You can’t park here. This is a restricted area. I’m going to have to write you a ticket.

This guy is a fucking genius. Servotron, the man behind the tapestry, is a cross stitching genius who has recreated the entire world map of the SNES classic The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past out of whatever it is you stitch with. Very cool, but if you thought this was badass, wait until after the jump…
