So Analog: See Retro Media Storage Come Alive As Toys!
For the first time in a long time, again, I am completely inspired through every atom of my being. The reason for this is none other than the retro cool of old storage media. Now you might think that I have finally cracked, but stay with me for a second. We all know that the cassette, cartridge a ...
WiBro-Bridge: Share Your Wi-Fi With Just A Touch!
The connectivity through cable is a memory for most people when it comes to laptops and netbooks. With our laptops we can enjoy cable free living with access to the virtual world from just about anywhere we want to be. However, there is still a problem that most people struggle with, which can bec ...
Zero Footprint Shirts Made From Leaves
We write a lot on this site about ways we can conserve our natural resources and help the environment. Our beautiful earth is such a precious gift to us all, and sometimes I think we take that for granted.
Even though it benefits everyone when we are environmentally conscious, there are times, l ...
$1,260 Costume: And You Thought You Were Cool!
This year I didn't get the opportunity to get on my Halloween mojo like I did last year (I was, like so many others I am sure, Hannibal Lecter), but I got to see so many cool costumes nontheless. Some were cute, some where scary, and some were just unidentifiable, but that's exactly what Halloween ...
Want A Unique Wedding? Say “I Do” In A Shark Tank!
I have an officemate who is getting married next year. Today we were discussing the theme, and the things she still needs to get done before her special day. Having organized a lot of events over a span of six years, I can say that it is the type of event that is detail oriented. The bride-to-be ...
How To Overcome The Blind Spot While Driving
Our cars are getting ever more advanced, and the features are making them more secure and automated. Some people argue that going in this direction is better for everyone's safety, and to some extent I can agree. However, when does the pleasure of actually driving the car get jeopardized? I sure w ...
A Guilty Pleasure for Geeks: The Star Wars Plush Toy!
Toys are no longer just for kids, they are now for grownups too. I have friends and family members that collect unique figurines and action figures that are very expensive, and they keep them in mint condition. They even dedicate an entire room to them, or they have custom made casings to display ...
Support Builders Of Tanks, When They Build Them Like This!
I find it rather interesting that even though pretty much 98% of the world's population is against wars, we still continue to have them. The reasons could be many, but the fact remains that the reasons will never weigh more than life itself. As natural resources continue to be diminished, we will ...
McDonald’s Happy Meals Just Got A Lot Less Happy
For a long time now we've seen the news about McDonald's food, and it's usually not pretty. We've always seen reports that fast food is tied to obesity, but it seems like there has been a specific attack on McDonald's in the past year.
Most recently, it has been reports on countless blogs about ...
iSnow: A Snowmobile Inspired by Apple
Sometimes I think designers attach the Apple name onto their concept designs just to get attention. I mean, when something has absolutely nothing to do with Apple, yet the designer attaches that logo, it kinda makes you wonder.
That is the case with this snowmobile, but I don't care. I still li ...
Symbolic Sculptures Created From Human Ashes
There is no doubt this is creepy, but it's one of those things that is so creepy it's actually interesting. We've written about art created from a human skeleton before, so I suppose it makes sense now to write about art created from human ashes.
I admit, when my beloved dog Daisy died, I had hi ...
How To: Collect Your Farts to Fuel a Cannon
Manley has a dream, a big dream. Now that he's learned how to collect his own farts and store them, he hopes to use them to fuel a homemade cannon. After all, farts are combustible gas.
Let's back up a moment. First of all, I realize that writing about farts is not very lady-like; however, far ...
Technology: Grow Vegetables Without Sunlight
I know this may sound creepy, but have you ever wondered how we will grow vegetables if there is ever a nuclear holocaust and we are all living in our bunkers?
Even if we live in a super fancy bunker like this, we are still going to have to grow food, right? I mean, we can't live on canned food ...
Gummy Bear Lego: Have Your Lego & Eat It Too!
Is it just me or does it seem like gummy bears are making a comeback? I remember back in the early 90s when gummy bears became super popular. All the cool kids at school ate gummy bears. The red ones were always my favorite.
For many years I didn't see much written about gummy bears, but now i ...
Scissor Art: Could You Do This With A Pair Of Scissors?
We've featured a lot of papercraft on this site. Some of the designs people create with a piece of paper are absolutely mind blowing. However, what if you add a pair of scissors to the mix? If someone handed you a piece of paper and a pair of scissors, what exactly could you create? These two ar ...
