Online retailer Zappos.com has just commissioned a team (a batallion?) of Kiva Robots to help them with their warehousing needs.  That means if there is an order from a client (crate-able goods), a Kiva Robot will surely be notified of that and off it goes to get that for you in no time.NO SINGLE POINT […]

Sleepless nights are nigh as Blizzard officially announces Diablo III. The company ended endless speculation when it officially unveiled the game during the Blizzard Invitational held in Paris.
Details surrounding the game are still sketchy since the company has admitted that the game is far from finished. But the Blizzard guys had been gracious enough to […]

Sure the classic “Manila envelop” stole the show at Macworld 2008.  Steve Jobs used it to drive the point that the Macbook Air is soooo thin, it’ll fit it.  There was a time too that people pressed the “buy now ” button for a “Manila envelop-like sleeve”, but I think the idea is over and […]

Game developer Blizzard has taken another stab at teasing its fans by posting a very cryptic picture on its website. The company has declined to comment about what the picture means but speculation is growing that they may announce something major at WWI in Paris.
That announcement could well be Diablo 3.
The picture in question shows […]

Ok, this may just be the most outrageous contraption EVER!  And I”m not too sure how to call it too… “breast powered bra”, “bra powerd breast”… ah, nevermind… I’ll leave that to the crafty people of Lingerie maker Triumph International Japan Ltd.  These guys from Triumph are expanding their business for the future.  Hey it’s […]

Beatles fans may actually have something to celebrate after strong rumors began circulating on the net that The Beatles’ catalogue–probably the most closely guarded music property in the world–will finally be made available for use in a game.
No less than the esteemed Financial Times has reported that representatives of the copyright holders of the Beatles’ […]

Technabob posted something relevant for all netadmins and server engineers worldwide.  I think the concept is very urgent to catch and improve on.  I’ve had so many of my tech friends put their servers in a freight box, dutifully insulated from immediate harm but Technabob says… “what if there was a plane crash” and that server […]

 
The Worldwide Developers Conference event for today is being hotly anticipated by the Mac faithful because of Apple CEO Steve Jobs keynote speech. Geeks worldwide have come to expect new things from Apple HQ whenever Jobs goes on stage in events like the WWDC. And today’s event is no different. Even now rumors are flying […]

I don’t know but there’s something that leaps out and just says write about me!  Aren’t these pillows too cute?  If you’re a usual bus, train, car snoozer this is your buddy for life.  It measures just under a foot so it doesn’t actually “tilt” your head too far from a sitting position.  But definitely […]

 
I’ve been so busy with work that I haven’t been able to really play a lot of games the past couple of week. This does not stop me from actually acquiring, or planning to acquire, games in the eventuality that I may find some time to away from my hectic schedule and be able to […]

 
Proudly declare your geekdom! Get a mousepad — probably the only thing you have regular contact with — at zazzle. Over a dozen designs, including those for women (”Queen of the Girl Geeks”), lesbians, gays. Fun site.

 I remember I’ve written about a “book lamp” before.  This is a fold-up book, when you open it it turns into a desk lamp (well it actually “pops” out)… really cool.  The above picture shows a close resemblance to that idea, this time it took it further… ultimately. It’s no pop-up… it’s an Origami Lamp! […]

We just got another jar of Goobers Peanut Butter last night from the supermarket.  I haven’t had any of those for the past 60 days (yeah I’m counting!).  Oh, okay, we got the peanut butter and grape kind, somehow strawberry doesn’t sit well.  Anyway.
I’ve long had scraped the bottom of the jar (literally), I’m a […]

Congratulations are in order for Smart Lid Systems, the inventors of a disposable color changing coffee lid.  The firm just walked away with the ‘Best of Show’ AmeriStar Packaging Award hosted by The Institute of Packaging Professionals.
You probably remember the infamous early 90s court case when an elderly  woman sued McDonalds for a McFortune when […]

Ok, pop quiz, do you know what these binary digits mean?  Take a hard look, harder… harder…
Sorry, I just couldn’t resist :).  I like this concept too much, but maybe that’s because I easily read it (being that I went thru the binary system during my freshman years in Computer Science).
Alright already (!), those binary […]

This is not your ordinary hand bag.  Although it may look like it’s not packing anything, I can guarantee you that this patended bag is packing smart technology that will make your mom say “I want one for Mother’s Day!”.  This post inspired by this blog post and this one too.
Let me serve you more […]
