The team behind (formerly known as Gaim) have released what they are calling the final beta before the final version, and have finally given the program a much needed “beauty treatment”, although in terms of layout, it remains pretty much the same.
Other than that, this is a bugfix release. So there are no new […]

Although this isn’t anything new it is something that deserves attention, or at least proper recognition. Nintendo have been with us since the beginning (or at least the beginning of mainstream gaming), but although we don’t notice it, most of our current controllers have evolved from Nintendo’s own Snes pad.
Sega tried to do something different, […]

If the headset we just featured wasn’t enough for your geeky needs, now we present you with this original tshirt that should make some Nintendo fans realize that it’s not all about mushrooms and princesses in the real world.
I’m not too sure about the mushrooms though ;)

If there ever was an Otaku’s dream headset, it would be this one. The official Evagenlion headset by Chara-Ani, in collaboration with Audio-Technica, which makes some of the best, although expensive, headsets in the market. Therefore I’m guessing that this one won’t be cheap either, but still, it would certainly turn heads in your local […]

Simple Help has a great tutorial on getting Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn to work with OS X’s Parallels. I highly recommend this version of Linux to pretty much everyone I talk to, and so now I don’t have to leave out my friends that are Apple users.
This tutorial is for anyone with an Intel based […]

If you are looking for a way to track the amount of time you are using on your freelance projects, or even a way to prove to your girlfriend that you aren’t gaming for hundreds of hours a week, try Toggl.
Toggl allows you to set up projects, and click a button to let it know […]

I don’t want to be excited about Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer. I don’t want to expect a good movie. I don’t want to go into the theater thinking that I might see SOME version of Jack Kirby and Stan Lee’s vision of this team come to life…but I CAN’T HELP
IT!!!!
This […]

Vudu is going to go head to head with the AppleTV this summer. What is Vudu? Well, right now I’m not 100% sure. It looks slick, it has major backing from former Apple and Tivo employees, and is going to launch with THOUSANDS of movies available for it this summer.
Now, […]

Geeks of Doom (home to my new favorite blog design in the world) has posted some info on the upcoming “Saviour of the Univese” edition DVD release of the 1980 camped out classic “Flash Gordon”. Like Dave3, I have to agree that, without the Queen theme, this movie wouldn’t be quite as cool, and […]

Next is Nicholas Cage’s second sci-fi action flick of the year, and it substantially better than the first one (that was Ghost Rider for those of you lucky enough to miss it.).
In “Next” Cage plays a Las Vegas magician who happens to be covering up the fact that he actually has a “magic” […]

I don’t want to get excited about this movie too early, but so far, every single thing I’ve seen or read about this movie has just seemed spot-on, and this pic is no exception. USA Today posted THIS, this morning…

For those of you that may not know, in the early days, Tony Stark’s armor […]

Yesterday, Sony unveiled the Playstation Eye - the next generation of the Playstation Eye Toy camera.

This version features a complete redesign that has crafted it to, apparently, look like it has a microphone afro - as well as some advanced features. VGA-resolution images run at 60 frames per second, while a smaller QVGA image […]

Newsarama published an interview with Joss Whedon yesterday where he revealed that he will be overseeing a 12 issue Angle mini-series that will serve as an official “season 6″ of Angel.
For those of you that may not be aware, Angel was a series that spun-off from “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”. It ran for 5 […]

Adobe recently released all new versions of their programs. And the designer community should be happy, at least those that use Macs, because the new version is Universal, which means it will work both on PowerPC G4 and Pentium processors (although I’m guessing that if you can afford to purchase Photoshop, you’ll already have a […]
