Normally, when new USB drive hits the market, it’s not cause for concern in the slightest. But I have a feeling that this particular one-gigabyte drive will not only turn heads like that $300,000 watch you wish you owned, but will also encourage females to hop on your genitalia and ride you like a ferris wheel. Now look at that ...

Ford GT R/C Car Can Do 60MPH
Since none of us are going to own a really fast car like the Ford GT anytime soon, we might as well settle for something just a tad smaller. This Ford GT R/C car is not only stylish and 1/5th the size of the original; it can also do speeds up to 60 MPH thanks to a 23cc engine that ...

Seems the brains up in Massachusetts have done it again. MIT has taken an ordinary household object and transformed it into the coolest experimental toy on the planet. Case in point are Quickies, which are essentially Post-It Notes that feed the written information on them back to a computer. The computer then interprets the text or image drawn on the ...

*sigh* When will the geek community learn that just because an image is projected on a surface, giving the “illusion” of three dimensions, does not make a media be a “holographic” technology. We won’t deny that this interactive image projection isn’t really cool looking, but come on, it’s no hologram. Now, with that out of the way, what the good ...

There are plenty of robots that are a hell of a lot more useful then Swashbot. Hell, there are a lot of robots that are even cuter then this mini-insectoid, yet there is something alluring about the DIY SwashBot. A certain charm, if you will. Constructed using spare R/C helicopter bits, including four servos, a receiver, a battery pack, LEDs, ...
Read More »Alien Autopsy: I Want To Believe!
A video recently popped up on YouTube of an alleged Alien Autopsy. While on must subjects I remain the intellectual skeptic, extraterrestrial life is one subject in which I’ll grab on to any shred of somewhat realistic documentation, just to believe that we are not alone.

Protesting with signs attached to sticks of wood is for hippies. As respected members of the tech community we all need something with a little more pizazz. The Wearable Video Vest is a cool way to garner some attention. Well, at least more attention that you’d get with a piece of poster board. The Video Vest features a full-on full-motion ...

Wong. James Wong. Or so we imagine, some Asian “James Bond-esque” spy using this Gum Wrapper Camera to gather information about a crime organization. The little spy camera is made to fit into an empty gum wrapper, to disguise your true espionage identity. The little gadget records both video and audio, recording the media onto MicroSD card. If the criminal ...

World record one-handed Rubik’s cube solver Chris Dzoan recently broke the record for solving the cube one-handed underwater in a new record time, clocking in at 25.502 seconds. Prepping for the attempt was an impressive process, including lubing up the cube with silicon to make sure the puzzle moved properly underwater, strapping on a special weight belt for shallow waters, ...

Excuse the lack of gadgetryness in this post, but holy shit. We haven’t been this excited since MacWorld. It seems that Peter Jackson and New Line have sorted out their disputes, and have settled on a contract that would put Jackson behind the camera for two films based on Tolkein’s The Hobbit. How awesome is that? We were afraid they ...
