GeckoBloggle now Mobile-Friendly
For any of the folks out there who use their Blackberry, PalmPilot, Treo, or cel phone (ouch!) to surf Teh Intarwebs, you’ll find that this blog now detects your miniature screenage and adjusts accordingly, throwing out all the pictures and flash-based doohickery. …and no, it doesn’t look any different from a “real” browser, so don’t…
The coolest video you’ll see this year (if you like lots and lots of cars flying around)
http://www.joystiq.com/2006/09/02/the-coolest-video-youll-see-this-year/ Someone crammed 1,000 cars into a physics engine. It’s sorta freaky beautiful, and I wanna know what kinda hardware was running that demo (which looks much smoother in the screen that the above pic may lead you to believe).
Hullo – Voice-Over-IP for folks who don’t have highspeed connections.
I don’t know how long they’ll keep it free, but www.hullo.com has released a beta of their foray into the VOIP arena. You can give it all of your phone numbers (I’m just waiting to see if they start spamming me with marketing calls or something), and you can dial out to land lines for…
Nice Owl – Is it real? (and did it used to be alive?)
Via the cool and wonderfully mind-expanding We-Make-Money-Not-Art, where I go almost every day. Animatronic Taxidermy “Poekie, battery operated.” You heard me. You probably also heard me go “BLEEAIGH!” when I thought about it for a minute. From the site (WMMNA) ’cause I think they summed it up best: Because taxidermy can never be too creepy,…
FinalScratch look out – V-Scratch is doing it with a $20 optical mouse
via We-Make-Money-Not-Art This article about Valerio Spolentini’s project, called V-Scratch talks about this university student’s simple idea for video/audio scratching using a very simple layout. A turntable with a record on it (any record with a paper label in the center, I assume). A laptop (for the audio/video sources). An audio mixer (but I’m not…
G4 + BOOM = G5!
Someone out there wanted the Internet’s help buying a G5 (at .25c per person, he got up to his $5,000 he needed). How’d he do it? By promising to BLOW UP HIS CURRENT Mac (a G4). Now I’ve got to go find out how much Tannerite costs. Much better quality and humour than one would…
Got an iPod, but not crazy ’bout iTunes? -> Yamipod
Yamipod is Yet Another Manager for your iPod. I’ve seen a few managers out there, but this one seems to have it all, and it’s portable, so you can actually copy it onto your iPod itself. Available for Windows, OSX, and Linux. I thought, “Yeah, right,” and downloaded the app to see what was what….
Cracked headphones – at least I’m not alone…
So I got a pair of funky Logitech Wireless iPod Headphones (with remote on the ear), graciously given to me by a person at work (who knows someone from Logitech), and loved loved loved them. They felt good, they sounded great (and much lighter than my monstrous Koss UR30s). Wore them during my daily commute…
Hey, for $30, I can choke a stuffed animal, too…
Is it just me or is the “USB Memory Drive In A {fill in the blank}” phenomenon getting a little old? Seriously: $41.77 (plus shipping for another $14) for A 128MB USB Memory Drive in A Plush Crocodile I could probably buy a small stuffed crocodile for about $4.00, and cram a $20 dollar USB…
