Social Media Asking: Our Newest Twitter & Facebook Habit
I consider myself to be a very tolerant person, so there are not very many things in social media that irritate me. Of course all the mafia family, twit validation and auto DMs immediately get deleted each day, but that's not really annoying. It's more like simple housekeeping.
One thing I've not ...
May The Fork Be With You: The Geek Way To Eat Corn
This little idea by Shed Simove was originally created to encourage kids to eat their corn. All I can say is, forget the kids; I want one of these for myself. This design is called Cornobi (as in Obi Wan Cornobi). As you can see, it's corn on the cob transformed into a dangerously fun lightsaber.

Usually when things go out of style, geeks are really quick to retrofy them into new gadgets that we all can get some nostalgic memories from.

World Mega Art: Literally Painting The World
The world can be quite a gray place when the neighborhood you live in is composed of concrete buildings which don't have much color. It might be odd to some people that some buildings still look like they are from back in the 60s. The reality of it is that buildings keep losing their appeal each yea ...

How To: Get Rid Of iPhone Pocket Syndrome
A few decades ago, many people had "Pack-Of-Cigarettes Pocket Syndrome." Remember that? These days, it's "iPhone Pocket Syndrome." I walk around with my iPhone in the back pocket of my jeans all the time. I also chomp gum with my mouth open and hardly ever wear shoes. Okay, maybe not, but since I li ...
Epic Lego Construction Is All Automated
Any epic Lego build is signed, sealed and delivered with a touch of creativity and uniqueness embedded into it.

Office Wars: The Nerf Gun Fight You Don’t Want To Join
It's been quite a while since we've written anything about the awesomeness of Nerf guns.

There is actually a whole league going on wi ...
Evolution Of The Warner Bros. Logo In Harry Potter
I think it's safe to say that Harry Potter has taken the world by storm. The books made J.K.Rowling the first author ever to earn over 1 billion dollars, and the movies have a lot to do with that of course. I think I watched the first movie at the theater, and I thought it was something extraordinar ...

United States: 50 State Stereotypes [Humor]
This is hilarious to me because if you live in the United States, you know there are stereotypes that accompany each state. I'm not a fan of stereotypes when they refer to individual people because they can be hurtful and damaging, but I'm all over it when it refers to a whole State because it's jus ...
How Cats Cool Down During Hot Summer Days
Just a few days ago summer hit Sweden, and today it's scorching hot over here. Cooling down is all about drinking a lot of water and staying in the shade. For some, the summer is a season they dread. I am of course talking about all the furry animals that simply hide from any direct sunlight during ...

The Evolution Of Graphic Design [Infographic]
As with almost anything nowadays, there is a history that goes back a long way when it comes to graphic design. Some people may think that this whole thing we call graphics is just something we made up when we first started using computers, and it became possible to draw simple pictures on them. Of ...
Men vs. Women: Our Favorite Colors Based On Gender
Color, or the lack of it, is such a huge part of our lives. People spend a lot of time learning how to manipulate colors for photographs, or how to mix just the right colors for paint. When you think about it, we start being associated with colors even before we are born. Many times parents receive ...
10,000 Piece Lego Star Wars Crawler Is Pure Awesomeness
I don't think anyone can deny that spending hours and hours building Lego is an experience all its own. When your inspiration is dead, there is nothing you can really do but to stack those blocks on each other hoping that you will have a glimpse of a creativity spark that will provide you with a new ...
