just a few things from my g-reader which may or may not find more use/practicality in at-a-glance list form:

  • audio over powerline here

  • Art Lebedev Folderix Flash drives here

  • PS3 wireless keypad here. Will someone please pho'shop up a gonad resembling keypad onto the 'banana' controller?

  • Eyepet. It's like Augmented reality, I suppose

  • Discussion about less obvious perks of piracy here

  • Big-ass MS Surface Coffee Table(?) computer unboxed

  • Lacklustre launch? Hire the buzz. Orange did. See here

  • Sony, Toshiba lazy with LCD production here

  • CG breakthroughs here. Still a bit spotty. I think it's the eyes and mouth--they're not quite right. Furthermore, I think the animated-ness of the character is a bit excessive.

  • Robotic Arm

  • Yet another useless Wii accessoryhere

  • Mashade

  • Criterion Collection uses PS3 as benchmark. Story here

  • Crappy iPhone camera attachement here

  • Solar tie. Yup.

  • Gamers are better surgeons. But are surgeons better gamers?



One last thing: finally figured out what makes Cillian Murphy and that guy (Thomas Schiff aka Ofc. Rachel Dawes in TDK) so creepy: the skin on their face. It looks like the skin is one size too small for their faces, and is thus too tight. Add to that, the clarity of their skin--nary a blemish nor a wrinkle in sight, and you've got a creepy villain in a Nolan movie.
