Entertainment Weekly Publishes First Video Advertisement

Entertainment Weekly has become the first print publication to publish video advertisements in the pages of their magazine. Activating similar to a musical greeting card, the video ads start as you turn the page. The first set of ads features 25 minutes of preview content for CBS and advert pitches for Pepsi Max. The video content, technically, has got to be tough to maintain as it gets thrown around in the mail. Half of these videos must not even work... Continue reading

Homemade Cardboard PC Case is Probably Flammable

Perhaps the greenest and most flammable case mod we’ve ever seen, aside from the UbuntuBox, the “Recompute” cardboard PC case shows off how sustainability can not only be cheap, but can ignite your whole house in flames as well.

An MP3 Player That Goes Straight Into Your Ear

Thanko might not be known for their practicality, but I think they might be on to something for once. Their Micro Sports MP3 Player looks more like a Bluetooth headset.

Available in 2GB and 4GB flavors, the Micro Sports MP3 Player looks a little chintzy, but seems to be even tinier than Apple’s iPod Shuffle.

iPhone Case Claims to be Wallet Killer

While Thomas Marriot is convinced that his Lightweight iPhone case will one day be the end of the wallet, I don’t see this case becoming a wallet killer. It just doesn’t offer enough space. Great, it can hold a credit card or two, but what about spare cash? What about the 10 receipts I have stuck in my wallet at any given time? Or my supermarket discount cards? Sure, this is a handy tool, but let’s call it what it... Continue reading

LED Apple Shirt

For some totally absurd reason, this shirt cost about $1,300, for real. What could possibly make a shirt cost that much? Well, the shirt is actually a Philips Lumalive shirt, so you can stream a variety of images, pretty much anything you set your mind to as long as you feel like inputting and arranging the data. But the Apple logo gives it that “gotta have it now” vibe. I don’t care what the shirt is or what it’s made... Continue reading
