Wow! These are some delicious-looking cupcakes made by Nick Bilton and Danielle Bilton that take the form of an iPhone menu. They won the cupcake contest that was held at last night’s Ignite NYC II event. I would have gone but I’m not trying to get diabetes. NOM! Link
World of Warcraft Terror Plots Uncovered?
Boing Boing Gadgets has an interesting write-up on how Blizzard’s World of Warcraft is being used as a tool for practicing terrorism on our home turf.

Heineken Mini-keg Joins A Rock Band
Just because you killed off your Heineken mini-keg all doesn’t mean the fun has to end there. Why not make use of it by turning the keg into a guitar amplifier? eBay seller k_hessler puts these amplifiers together (whilst under the influence) so he can sell them on the Internet for $119.99. There’s nothing specifically noteworthy about this 20W amp, I mean – it doesn’t even double as a bong. At least it’s made well, unlike many other DIY amplifiers... Continue reading
