When I first tuned into the Internet cat craze a few years ago, I thought for sure it would be just a fad.

Wear Your Lunch: A Trendy & Tasty Jewelry Collection

Haven't you always wanted to wear a hot pink chicken wing necklace, a bacon bracelet or a whipped cream and cherry ring? Me neither, but apparently some people do.

Mean Green Machine: A Freaky Xbox 360 Console Mod

There are game console modders, and then there is Kier. His motto is, "Why keep it standard if you can modify it?" This particular mod looks like the Hulk, and it's just as intimidating to me. What Kier is able to do with a couple of white Xbox 360s is truly mind-blowing. The clear acrylic panel on ...

Who’s Most Likely To Upgrade To The iPhone 5 [Infographic]

All the hoopla about the iPhone 5 is soon to come to an end. The hype and the anticipation is soon to be answered by the highly welcomed keynote that unfortunately Steve Jobs will not be able to deliver this time around.

Zombie Map: Now You Know Where They Are From [Data Map]

Many people keep asking themselves what they would do if the dead suddenly started rising. Alright, maybe not many people, but a few of you people out there actually do, and it is by all means a valid question worth digging deeper into.

The Bacon Font: A Uniquely Delicious Alphabet

Even after writing at least a dozen articles about bacon, I'm still baffled by our fascination with it. I admit that I am a true bacon lover, and I can put away a pound of bacon like it was nobody's business, but our obsession with bacon goes beyond just eating it. I remember it started back around ...

Stylish Shoes Molded From Recycled Cardboard

When I was doing research for this article, I learned a lot about cardboard with regards to recycling. There are two types of cardboard. The first is what's called corrugated cardboard, and it's the type of cardboard we normally see things packed in for shipping. It has that lightweight ruffled laye ...

Chocolate Covered Deep Fried Triple Double Oreos

Oh. My. Gosh. In case you've been living under a rock, you may not know that last month Triple Double Oreos hit the shelves at the supermarket. I've never seen a cookie get so much PR before. The Internet blew up about it, and even the most usually reserved websites got all gitty. These cookies aren ...

This Geeky Kickass NES Mod Makes Me Hot & Heavy

Is it weird that I get so excited over a well-done, glossy, geeky NES mod? I hope not. We see a lot of these mods, but rarely are they as nicely done as this. The last time I saw an NES mod that was this cool was the one that was turned into a fabulous to-die-for lunchbox. If you want to see that on ...

When They Were Young: Baby Star Wars Characters

Before the prequels were released and George Lucas had just announced that he was working on another set of three movies I, along with millions of other Star Wars fans, got really excited.

Igloo Hotel: Pure Zen In The Middle Of All The Snow

I am a real sucker for travel experiences and if I had to choose I would go for an experience rather than some gadget or a toy. The experience lasts a lifetime while a gadget only lasts as long as its technology is fresh enough to be compatible with the world. I recently wrote an article about the T ...
