The Effect Of Twitter Followers On Emmy Awards [Infographic]
In case you don't live in the States, I'll quickly explain what a Primetime Emmy Award is. It's an award presented in recognition of excellence in American primetime television. It's basically the television equivalent of a Grammy Award (for music) and an Academy Award (for movies).

A Tiny Tilt-Shift Time-Lapse World Created With A Smartphone
Tilt-shift photography is a technique that makes the end result simulate a miniature scene. I've always thought of it as a very complicated procedure requiring fancy lenses and camera equipment. However, amateur photographer Stu Kennedy recently showed the world that not only do you not have to have ...
Architecture: A Cozy House Created From Bookshelves
As we all know, now that we are experiencing the era of the iPad and Kindle, traditional books are becoming less and less popular. As a matter of fact, even some elementary schools are replacing books with iPads. I have a friend who just got her packet for attending University in the fall, and it ca ...
Schweeet! The iPhone Case That Opens Beer Bottles
Some people are very motivated to open their beer bottles. If it doesn't have a twist-off cap, it can be really frustrating not to be able to find a bottle opener. I totally get that. I remember when Misty wrote about this robot t-shit with a built in bottle opener. I almost ordered one of those, bu ...
Creative Star Wars Inspired Vegetable Carvings
Have you ever noticed how much Star Wars inspires food designers and party planners? Now that I think about it, Star Wars pretty much inspires all geeks, whatever their interests may be.

Science: Beautiful Rainbow Colored Ant Stomachs
In the 5th grade, I tried hard to come up with a cool science experiment for my class. I ended up making perfume from flowers, which was a little boring. If I had known about this, it would have been the perfect science experiment to impress all my geeky elementary school friends.
Did you know th ...
Superheroes In Real Life (And Yes, They Have Masks)
Like most kids, when I used to watch Superman and Wonder Woman in cartoons, I asked my mom if superheroes existed in real life. When she said no, it was almost as devastating as learning that there is no such thing as a man dressed in a red suit who comes down the chimney to deliver presents made by ...

The Evolution Of Portable Music [Infographic]
With the mp3 file format came a whole new revolution of technology and also a lot of whining from the record companies. Being a writer and producer myself, I particularly remember when the record and publishing companies started to blame their lousy innovative thinking regarding dropping sales due t ...
Study Finds Americans Love Their Gadgets More Than Family
Hmm... I'm not so sure I even want to be writing this article because it's kinda sad. Of course, that is assuming this information is true. Sometimes when we see these studies, the information is based on a survey of a very small group of people in an isolated area of the country, so the results can ...

The Cost Of Being The First Kid On The Block [Infographic]
I have pointed it out many times before, but I suppose another time won't hurt us a bit. Technology is rapidly progressing, and it isn't unusual for us to buy something at the store only to get back home, install it, and find out that what we just bought is actually yesterday's hype. It happens to m ...
40 Harrison Ford Faces Illustrated
Have you seen the new Harrison Ford movie Cowboys & Aliens yet? I haven't. Apparently, the story goes something like this... In 1873, a spaceship arrives in Arizona with aliens who want to take over the earth. They decide to start by conquering the Wild West region, which is where they find a fe ...
Transparency vs. Anonymity: The Rules Of The Online World
Networking in today's online climate can not only be a way to express yourself with the utmost transparency, but it can also lead to some rather unwanted side effects. People with the intention of causing you harm can twist and revert your accountability using tools that will have anyone on their kn ...
Facebook Faces: What 100,000 Profile Pictures Looks Like
I must admit, for a couple of years, I wasn't much of a Facebook user. I didn't even have an account with that giant social networking service. As embarrassing as that actually is, I think I am now becoming addicted to the thing just like almost everyone else who uses it. With their 650 million user ...
20 Captivating Photos Shot At Exactly The Right Moment
There are some things in life that make me feel dated (notice I didn't use the word "old" LOL). For example, sending a fax, writing in cursive (with a pen) and talking on any phone with a cord (and twirling it around my fingers) are all things that kids born in 2011 might never have the opportunity ...
Insane Living: A Whole Room In A Compact Box
The world is getting ever smaller they say. As a little kid, I never used to quite understand what the adults who said that were talking about, but as I grew older, I understood that it didn't have to do with the world as a physical object. With all the new technology, infrastructure and transportat ...
