If you were one of three people on the planet who enjoyed the Jerry Seinfeld ads from Microsoft, I’ve got some bad news: Microsoft is moving to “phase two” of its ad campaign. That means no more Jerry, no more churros and no more of Gates doing the robot. The next phase of Microsoft’s plan is to crack counter shots ...

Finally, Amazon has made a move that will no doubt shake up the world of online video. One of it’s hottest properties, IMDb.com, will now be offering over 6,000 full-length films and TV episodes for – wait for it – free. Yes, free. Amazon is actively promoting this and is encouraging other directors and filmmakers to get involved. The flicks ...

You’d best get to your local convenience store and stock up on some Mega Man energy drinks because Mega Man 9 is coming – again. Knowing Capcom, it’ll probably come ten more times because Capcom just can’t quit anything. Mega Man 9 has been given a release date of September 24th for the WiiWare in Japan. No word on an ...

Personally, I haven’t seen Eepybird.com’s Diet Coke and Mentos videos but they’re apparently really spectacular. Now, in a move that will equally please, the duo behind the Mentos gags are messing with Post-it notes. How many to be exact? 280,951. All “submitting to gravity” in the truest sense.

Microsoft has released the latest Seinfeld collaboration video entitled “A Family Affair.” It stars Gates and Seinfeld at a family’s dinner table.

Ever since the Internet was created, one popular theme of entertainment has always shown through any of the other bullshit that appears on the Internet: puzzled domesticated animals battling technology. You might have seen a dog versus a vacuum cleaner mouse or perhaps a parakeet fighting some crazy flying Halloween decoration. Cat versus the printer is a new one to ...

What really makes the Wii so popular? Is it the robust library of games? Can’t be. Is it the faulty control mechanism? Anything is possible. What about the fact that Nintendo has the cheapest system on the market but you’ve got to buy twice as many controllers at marked up prices just so you can play with friends? Nah, that’s ...

Technology helps prevent crime. That’s a no-brainer. London’s use of CCTV has turned the city into a near police state and GPS has led to more arrests for car theft. As of yesterday, New Yorkers will be able to send text messages, picture messages and video to 911 and 311. This will enable citizens to report crimes of all types, ...

Every once and awhile, Steve Jobs must prove to everyone he’s still functioning on a coherent level. That’s why whenever he opens his mouth, time stands still and everyone on the planet lends an ear.� The Apple chief executive announced today that the new iPod Touch is, “the funnest iPod we�ve ever created.” But, what’s it packing? For starters, it’s ...

I was going to do a serious write up of this T-Rex necklace until I remembered that awesomely terrible song from the 1990s about “walking the dinosaur” or something like that. Hit the jump for the real jewels.
