Sharpie Art: Neighbors Decorate A Volkswagen Van With Black Sharpies
Why do people love to decorate cars with Sharpies? Is it because it creates graffiti-like art? Is it because it's cheap? I don't know, but I like it. If I had an old white car, a steady hand, and any artistic talent, I would try it myself. I remember reading about a guy years ago who decorated his L ...
Beer Glass Keeps People From Checking Smartphones When Socializing
When I'm at restaurants, I routinely look around to count all the people who are on their smartphones instead of engaging with the people who are sitting at the table.

5 Top Tech Companies Have More Money Than You Think [Infographic]
We write a lot about the top tech companies in the world and how much they're worth. It's mind boggling really when you start to think about the money those companies have.

Google vs. Facebook Internships: Perks & Pay Comparison [Infographic]
When I think of internships, I think of people trying to gather valuable experience from a company they want to learn from. Usually interns get paid a very small amount of money, but in exchange, they get to work hands on in whatever field they want experience in. That's not how it works at Google o ...

Handcrafted Donkey Kong Barrel Game Is Perfect For A Retro Happy Hour
I don't know what it is about the '80s retro video games, but people are still so inspired by them even today.

Star Wars Elevator Prank: Use The Force To Make Elevators Open
It's been a while since I posted a good prank, and this Star Wars elevator prank is priceless.

Calls To Action In Social Media & Blogs Really Work [Infographic]
For me, calls to action have always been easier offline than online. It's easy to ask someone to do something face to face, but online it can feel a little strange. I remember back in 2009 when the general attitude was that asking for retweets was completely cheesy. A lot has changed since then, and ...

Funny Caricatures Of Real Facebook Photos Will Give You A Giggle
Writing a blog post isn't hard, but writing one that shows your personality can be tricky. This is especially true if you want to convey humor. I read blog posts all the time written by people who are trying to be funny, but it doesn't quite translate. It ends up feeling awkward. I even wrote about ...

A few weeks ago we featured a Silkworm 3D Printer which used the thread of silkworms in the production of '3D printed' creations. It was an impressive innovation. Today I'd like to share another printing project that use ...

The Difference Between Geeks & Nerds Based On Twitter Research [Chart]
Every time I hear someone refer to a geek as a nerd, I cringe. To me, the differences between geeks and nerds are so obvious, and I don't know how so many people can be so confused about it. Of course, that is assuming my definition of each one is correct, which could be flawed logic. It seems like ...

If you are a geek, you probably like the movie TRON. When I think of '80s classics, TRON always comes to mind. Of course, TRON Legacy in 2010 was a huge hit in its own right, and the teenagers around the world will probably always think of TRON Legacy when they think of TRON, but I will always be a ...
