Just when we started to fear that that tweet about our lunch back in 2006 would be lost forever, the Library of Congress has come to save the day. @libraryofcongress tweeted some good news for us fans of completism. The Library plans to archive every tweet ever tweeted, going all the way back to the good ole days of March ...

The Star Wars universe is an interesting place. No matter how many Star Wars books you read, or movies you watch, there is never any mention of personal�hygiene. There’s that one part where you can almost see Lando’s nose pluck up into disgust after Han lifts his arm, but that’s about it. (Did I make this up? Maybe, maybe not. ...

The majesty of Donkey Kong meets the awesomesauce of Return of the Jedi on this awesome Threadless potential tee. Currently stuck in the voting process, this mash-up t-shirt seems like a shoe-in for me, but you never know with those fickle Threadless voters. You know what to do fellow GEARheads.

Al Gore, Barack Obama and now, there’s you. Trying to save the planet isn’t always an easy job, but somebody’s gotta do it. Well, these Christmas lights actually are pretty easy.

These googly eyed Star Wars Finger Puppets would be awesome for performing a one-man puppet show, recreating the Star Wars trilogy in its entirety. Sure, there might be a very small audience sitting through the whole thing, but imagine the epicness. Each puppet costs about $1 to make, factoring in the cost of the felt and a few drops of ...

Can’t think of the perfect way to disgrace your least favorite politicians? We humbly suggest the Shoe-Merang. Now, you can throw your Oxford at whomever you desire and be confidant that you’ll receive the shoe back, untouched by any Secret Service hands. We suppose your target doesn’t even have to be a politician or even a celebrity, but that makes ...

Overlord Obama has officially announced our new commander-in-geek. Vivek Kundra was proclaimed our new president of everything cool and internet-y (along with the FCC head), or the U.S. government’s Chief Information Officer if you want to get “technical” about it. See what I did there? That’s called a “pun.” Kundra has been known to encourage open sourcing and accessible coding, ...
