Unconscionable "I Love Gitmo" Wear
Some crazy group called Move America Forward has started the I -heart- Gitmo campaign. (Gitmo being short for Guantanamo Bay, Cuba).
You can buy shirts, thongs and even baby clothes.
If I ever saw someone wearing this crap on the street I think I would have a fit.

Help for the enterprising muff diver
I'm certain this needs no introduction.

Your own SouthPark man
Those cracy Germans have done it again, and no I don't mean invaded Poland.
This time they've created an online South Park character creator.
I think I've probably got a bit less hair but this is about as close as I can come to my own South Park character. If you feel so inclinded, post your own characterisations as comments. I'm wondering how strange our town might be?

Is that a projector in your pocket...
I dream of the day when my cell phone has a tiny projecter in the back rather than a tiny camera. Allowing me to project my life from my pocket.
We may not be there yet but Mitsubishi is releasing a Pocket LED Projector. Less than a pound and it fits in the palm of your hand. I've no idea what I'd do with it, but I really want one.

Mulitplayer fridge
Perhaps not the most exciting of game titles, but this
browser based multi-player Flash game is fricken cool.
I've not seen anything like this before made from Flash, but it has certainly started me a thinkin, and if nothing else, it's darn cool technology.

More computers than sense?
I'm not sure how much use this will be to any of you, but it's a pretty darn cool use of technology. I suppose it goes to show what can be done these days with all our processing power and cheap monitors.
So without further ado...the amazing dual monitor, dual computer, single mouse solution!
Ok, we could probably work on the name a bit.

The Nicosphere 3000
This may not make any sense to those of you living in the midwest, but to California and New York smokers the Nicosphere 3000 discreet smoking system may be the answer to your preyers.

Fancy a game of Operation?
I'm not sure if this can be seen as watching a super high tech version of Operation or the even more insidious "Total Knee Replacement Surgery for dummies". Let's be honest do we really want a bunch of idiots running around with the ability to operate on their friends and families?
On the other hand if you've ever wanted to know what a TKR is like, then sit back and enjoy.
