When I first caught glimpse of the AlphaGrip, I thought to myself “Well, I guess the jig is up. We humans had a fine run on Earth but the alien visitors have finally landed.” I was relieved to discover that the AlphaGrip Handheld Computer is actually a very terrestrial device. A high-performance high-speed portable concept computer made for gamers. The ...

I was browsing one of my private torrent sites today when I came across this torrent called “Nintendo VS SEGA EP” from the Remix Artist Collective or RAC. The album features four tracks consisting of classic Nintendo remixes. All your favorites are here: Link, Mario and Sonic. It’s pretty decent dance music and would go over well at the Maker ...

Falling under the conditions of the human condition, we’re born explorers. Sure, we’d love to seek out all of the hidden nooks of the world, but rather it be work or money, there’s always an excuse holding us back from traveling. GeoSim is launching their first complete city tour, starting with Philadelphia, which might one day lead to a whole ...

I won’t be able to check out GTA IV until later tonight, but apparently, if you venture into an Internet cafe and explore around the private network the Rockstar crew has set up, you’ll find a page poking fun at everyone’s favorite company. Instead of Apple, you see Fruit. And yes, it implies two things. That you are gay because ...

These creepy sheep are part of an art installation in Creepsville. If you take a closer look, you’ll see the head of each animal has been replaced with a rotary phone circa 1955. Their legs are made up of handsets and the wool is actually a bunch of intertwined phone cords. Who knew such a piece of shit could become ...

Because you’re going to want to scoop up a few of these Glow-in-the-Dark Doorknob Grips. At $18 a 4-pack and made from soft latex-ish material, they’ll help your kids ...

Xerox is looking to venture outside the office world you’ve associated it with. Seems now it’s aiming to make tree-hugging hippies smile with erasable paper. The paper automatically clears itself after a 24-hour waiting period and can then be used again and again, up to 100 times. It may not be a zero-watt monitor, but hey, it beats sitting there ...

If you live in a major city, you know about the crazy homeless religious fanatics which turn up every so often at a major street corner, clutching a Bible to their chest and preaching about the upcoming apocalypse and how we’re all going to burn in hell. Meanwhile, Pastor Hobo over here is chugging booze through out his whole sermon. ...

Remember those old mood rings which would change colors depending on what “mood” the ring decided you were in? Blue was calm and green was sensitive, while red was angry and black was, well, I don’t remember what black was. Even if they were cheap pieces of shit, I always thought mood rings were a lot of fun, but they ...

You can go and envy Mr. Rich Man while watching his 70″+ plasma TV through the window of your local mansion. See how proud he seems of his accomplishment? All of these years of work, so he can enjoy a TV. Only if he knew that his measly 70 inches are dwarfed by the humongous MEGASCREEN! A TV so large ...
