I love it when parodies come true. Like the Onion predicting a 5-bladed razor, The Simpsons joked about a video game where you convert infidels into conservatively dressed Christians. Well Left Behind Games is bringing just that to a computer near you.
Apparently, your task is to save the world from the forces of […]

The internet’s been around a while now, and I think it’s safe to say people know how hyperlinks work. You see underlined text, you click it, and it takes you to a new page. So why do people still use redundant ‘click here’ links? No shit, dipstick!
The problem is that […]
If proponents of intelligent design didn’t have enough reason to despise the implications of evolution, namely that we used to be apes millions of years ago, here’s another kick in the junk. From the article:
A US team says its results hint at the possibility that interbreeding occurred between the two lines [chimps and humans] […]
It’s become quite clear that corporate interests are stifling innovation in the marketplace. New technology, that could be benefiting people, is being hindered because it confounds entrenched business models.

Did you know you can drag any folder to the Taskbar and it’ll become a toolbar? Any files you have inside can be accessed from the toolbar, just like the print, open, forward and back buttons at the top of this screen.
Let’s say you have a folder with documents you need regularly through your […]
If I saw a woman walking down the street with this, I would get down on one knee and propose. I would then use it to call my friends and tell them the good news.
Guys, you can get a phobile if purses aren’t your cup of tea.
I’ve had a love affair with this car for a little over a year now. Its audacious yellow self is always parked by my work, sporting that prehensile spoiler and those ridiculous “Jump off groupie!!!” decals. The car gives “No Fear” queers a good name. Best of all, every time I see […]
Because of a non-anonymous tip (thanks Jay), I checked out the hosts of WNYC’s Radio Lab at the Apple Store in Soho yesterday. The hosts, Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich, base an hour long show around a broad topic, crafted from interviews and ambient sounds and the result is a really engaging story. […]
