Today is the day, baby. Most of you who reserved a PS3 Instant Stream disc will be receiving yours today. I happened to be one of the lucky ones who got their hands on a disc a littler earlier in the day so I’ve taken the liberty of reviewing the disc for those of you who were still on the fence about going through the trouble of reserving your own copy.

The whole process is pretty seamless. The first time you pop in the disc you’re required to go through a very simple activation process, but after that you’re home free. The cover flow UI is easy to navigate after you get used to the slightly clumsy square-button led navigation. The quality is MUCH better than I expected, almost reaching DVD quality and definitely out pacing both my PC and my Mac.

Enough of my pandering. Check out the video and see for yourself!

Chewbacca’s roar. This is one talent I’ve always wanted, along with the ability to rip off the arms of a droid if they beat me in chess, but that’s another talent for another time. This sexy instructional video features an adorable geek chick unveiling the secrets of the Chewie roar. You’ll need to have some sort of control over your oral muscles, something which I unfortunately don’t seem to have and it would help to share the genes of a tiger, badger or bear.

I’m pretty sure the key to mastering the roar is practice, even if you feel sort of silly gurgling all by yourself. The only problem I see possibly facing is explaining away the guttural noises if someone walks in on you practicing.

And we had the nerve to think that all of that “om nom nom” stuff was nonsense. These kitties prove otherwise. Here’s all the proof you need to see that the mysterious “om nom nom” totally exists in nature.

Oh, come on. The Kong man didn’t even put up a fight! In his defense, I guess it’s kinda hard to fight back when your being speared by Scorpion.

You’ve seen people practically offering their lives for invites, you’ve seen it trending on Twitter, but what is it? I know there are a lot of you out there who are still kinda unsure what Google Wave actually is and why it’s such a big deal.

The video above does a great job explaining what Google Wave actually is and why you should care.

…and it is NOT pretty. Apparently Mr. Adolf has been watching his budget. His Marvel collection has gotten a little out of hand.

Have you ever seen Hitler’s bedroom? Crazyness.

In preparation for the second season of Cartoon Network’s Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series, Moxie Interactive has created a video for the network, along with the newest anthem of your geeky life. Introducing, the “Jedi Song.”

Included in the video is exclusive animation and the coolest light saber guitar you’ll see all day.

Thanks Erin from Moxie Interactive!

How old school do you like it? Project Nomad takes you WAAAAYYYY back. Back to the days when going out to get a steak was more complicated than just stepping out to your nearest grocery store.

Jason Battersby’s Project Nomad is a vehicle concept with a twist. Instead of the standard wheel-based movement system, Nomad is operated with a set of four legs, much like an animal mount. The vehicle itself is controlled much like a motorcycle. Hit the jump for more pics and a video preview.

Alright, alright. Look, I’d love to bash Microsoft’s latest attempt at search but the truth of the matter is that I can’t. Bing is wonderful. Know why? Live video preview. If you move your mouse over a video, it automatically starts playing so you can check out clips before you click them. Get what I’m saying? So all you have to do to get your daily fill of pornography is type in the word “tits” and click Search. Your day will be infinitely better. Give it a run. I think you’ll find that while Bing is no Google-killer just yet, it packs features that will keep you fapping for hours to come.

Anyone who claims that fashion and LEGOs don’t mix is lying through their teeth. That, and they obviously have never seen this video by Fabrice Pathier. It’s a CGI animation of a LEGO fashion show. It features actual designs from fashion designer Jean-Charles de Castelbajac.

While I’ve never heard the name because I’m out of the fashion loop, the video is still enjoyable to watch. The music is so fitting, it’s scary.
