Retrieva Keeps A GPS-Aided Eye On Your Pooch (And You)
Dogs aren’t called “man’s best friend” for no reason. Most pet owners would put their own life and limb at risk to keep their pet safe. The feeling that your dog is lost somewhere in the wild is one of the scariest thoughts a pet owner can experience. Retrieva is a system which keeps tabs on your dog with a GPS-enabled collar. The sat-nav collars allows users to sign into a website to pinpoint the location of their dog, whenever... Continue reading
Massaging Socks Don’t Care How Your Feet Smell, But Your Friends Still Do
When my lady friend gets home from work and asks me for a foot massage, I initially don’t have a problem. Then the time comes when she lays her smelly, dirty feet across my lap, with a face of self-knowing, at which point I tell her to get her dirty appendages into the shower. I think for her birthday this year I’ll pick her up a pair of these Akaishi Foot Massager Socks. The fleece shots press into your feet... Continue reading
Beer Pouring Robot Might Be Mistaken As A Retro Gas Station Tank, But DOES Replace Your Wife
College kids and middle-aged beer drinkers will be absolutely thrilled to hear about the Robot Pouring Robot (not to mention underage “rebels” since nowhere on this bot do we see a way to check for ID). Not only does the robot mean you don’t have to get off your ass to fetch your own beer, but it also means you don’t have to nag your lady to do it for you. The Beer Pouring Robot is powered via remote control,... Continue reading
Eletronic Holy Bible: Now Available In Grape Flavor!
Electronic Holy Bible’s really aren’t interesting, and haven’t been “cutting edge” since around 1995, but there was something about the purple color scheme of this particular device that was screaming to be written about. More particularly, pointed and laughed at. A 1M-bit databank (omgz, massive data power!), ensures that the bible verses you so crave are always at your fingertips. The battery powered “holy grape”, as I have come to calling it, also comes with a built-in calendar which allows... Continue reading
Bouncy Giant Foam Cheese Dice: For Use With Cheddar Themed Dice-Tossing RPGs
Sure, RPGing was definitely not the intention of these Giant Foam Cheese Dice (obviously the point was to attract aging gold digger women in casinos), but seriously, how could you not at least wonder what it would be like to play a little DnD with these bad boys? The only problem is that giant dice with only 6 sides is not acceptable. Give us some more options to work with! Each of the bouncy Foam Dice measures 16″ by 16″... Continue reading
Baby, I’m Going To Lay You Down In Front Of My USB Logo Candle
Us geeks have our own way of pulling romance out of out asses. When we’re geekly romantic, it’s either severely intentional, or so unintentional that the ladies look at our naivety as cuteness. Either way, we get some bootay. Am I right? The USB Logo Candle falls under the severely intentional category. If I know anything about geeks, I can almost guarantee that none of them would use this USB Logo Candle as just another classy design piece to add... Continue reading
eBoy Skins For iPod Make Pixel Magic
More than a year ago, we showcased an excellent poster design which took pixelized art and created a city out of Web 2.0 companies, created by eBoy. Now, eBoy is rolling out their very own iPod skins. The eBoy touch is very clear and is an excellent add-on for your Apple device. That is, if you have grown tired of the same old solid color. — Andrew Dobrow Link [via]
Bee’s Project: Cancer In A Glass
It’s known around the science community that trained bees are known to be able to sniff out such ailments as forms of cancer, the common cold, even pregnancy (an ailment to some.) The Bee’s Project incases the yellow jackets into hand blown glass objects, where the insects can smell and hover over your saliva, telling you of all of the ailments you might have. Is this covered under my HMO? I think I want another opinion.
