Apparently, the iPhone is still fodder for shitty jokes and tasteless products. Case in point: the iCondom. With a box strikingly similar to Apple’s flagship telecommunications device, it’s no humongous 3G iPhone but it’s packed with goodies that are meant to be touched. iMemory, iLight, iTree and iFood are all part of the iCondom package. Allow me to inform you ...

Imagine a picturesque wild west town. It’s the late 1890s and the bars are hot, stale and empty. You and 5 of your amigos stroll in and order a round of whiskey shots, stat. How could you put the bartender under that kind of stress? The whiskey is clearly on the other side of the bar, next to the laser ...

My friend Dennis once told me a story about drinking in Japan. Turns out after a few rounds, he did a shot of 2C-E and the night turned into a grooved out trip. Thanks to the bright lights of Tokyo and Akihabara, he was able to roam the streets with something interesting to gaze at for a few hours. Unfortunately, ...

Let’s face the facts here: you love saving both money and the environment. Whether you trade in your NV200 for a Toyota Prius or keep the heat at 55 degrees in the dead of winter, you get off on the mere fact that at the end of the month you’ll have saved a grand total of $6.34. Congratulations. Al Gore ...

LED lights are truly awesome. And not just because they’re adorably small and glow in pretty hues. Mostly, it’s because you can use them to create magic messages in the air using rapid movement. We’ve seen it before, though in the form of a LED Magic Wand. But what’s the fun in just moving your hand back and forth like ...

Are you feeling vintage? Heading to a LAN party to play Doom II and break out 3.5-inch classics like Commander Keen and Xargon? In that case, it’s essential you remain as dapper as possible for the occasion. This felt Floppy Disk Pin will compliment any wrinkled suit you borrowed from your roommate, unlike other apparel on the market. Link (via)

It’s no Starship Enterprise souvenir, but the ISS Soyuz Laptop Bag is a pretty decent alternative. The bag is constructed with pieces of the landing parachute from the 2004 Soyuz TMA-3 mission to the International Space Station, meaning this is the Real McCoy. The hot shit. A bag your fancy portable computer can fit in. There’s also a small case ...

U.K. company Clustarack knows exactly how to bring all the geeks to the yard and yes, its ad is better than yours. Seemingly inspired from a Honda car commercial I saw a few years back, Clustarack created a dynamic living advertisement using nothing but the contents of a printing room. The results can only be described as a disastrous domino ...

Some might argue that ice cream is not related to technology. If you saw how Ben & Jerry’s cranks out all those pints of Americone Dream, you’d probably beg to differ. Either way, every geek loves ice cream and today is Free Cone Day. Free Cone Day is when you go to a Ben & Jerry’s store (find yours here) ...

I love dogs just as much as the next guy. Maybe even more so. But this is just getting a tad bit ridiculous. The Doggy Dream Homes provide your pup with comparatively more space than you probably have in your own home. The Dream Homes are made using the same materials used to construct your home (and superior materials if ...
