Spiderpig Desktop: Made With Folders & Patience
Ah, Spiderpig. One of my favorite characters in the Simpsons movie.
One of the guys over at Gizmodo made this amazing Spiderpig desktop using colored folders on his Mac. I can’t even imagine how long this must have taken. The image here does it no justice, so go visit the Gizmodo blog to check it out, [...]
Liberty City vs New York City
It’s no surprise that the amount of detail in Grand Theft Auto IV is stunning. Graphically, it justifies the Guiness World Record breaking sales numbers in its first week of sales. While I have yet to try my hand at the awesome power of this game (I know, shocking!) I can still appreciate the coolness [...]
Alaskan Playgrounds: Way More Dangerous Than Philly’s
… since this particular family lives on the outskirts of Anchorage, they decided to build a sturdy, colorful playground for their 3 and 4 year old sons, with smooth-stone gravel all around it to avoid knee scrapes [...]
Beyond Good & Evil: Sequel In The Works! Yes!
In my fine opinion, Beyond Good & Evil is easily one of the best games ever to be released on the original XBox console. It provided innovative, animated graphics, a compelling storyline, and provided gamers with a female video game character that, for once, was not a bundle of cliches. She wasn’t some over sexualized [...]
NES Coffee Table: Actually Works!
We love anything involving modded NES gear. This gorgeous gigantic Nintendo controller, which is also a coffee table, is no exception. Kyle Downes is the artist behind this awesome piece of furniture… and it actually works. He custom built a computer board into the thing. Inside, you can store lots of video game swag.
The glass [...]
Adama ‘08: You Have To Roll A Hard Six
Sometimes you just have to.
It’s a simple website, just that splash image, but check out Vote-Adama.com.
Tim and I are thinking of doing some crazy street art and taping these signs all over Center City. I suppose it won’t be street art as much as it is humorous vandalism… but whatever.

Japanese Army of Darkness Poster: Bruce Campbell (Soup)
I collect a lot of movie posters. Originals, the cool double sided posters you can only get in the theaters. So whenever I see an international poster that looks this sweet, I drool a little bit. Of course, some of the drooling in this case can be attributed to Bruce Campbell. *sigh* he’s one dreamy [...]
Your Plants Can Talk To You… Using Twitter
Did you know that your house plant can also Twitter? They can! And chances are, what they’re saying is just as interesting as hearing you talk about where you are, what bar you’re getting drunk at, or what you’re making for dinner.
Thanks to the guys at Adafruit, for a mere $160, you can build [...]
Sleeveface: Amazing Activity For Vinyl Collectors
What is Sleevefacing? Their blog defines it as one or more persons obscuring or augmenting any part of their body or bodies with record sleeve(s) causing an illusion. Jeff over at Used Wigs provided the link to this, and I’ve gotta say, it’s absolutely hysterical.
The images range from the humorous to the extremely creative.
Here’s [...]
Star Wars Ewok Gospel: A Musical Tribute
It’s been a quarter of a century now, people, since the Rebels won the day
They destroyed that evil empire and the galaxy was saved
Han Solo, Luke, Leia, Lando — they’re the heroes we all recall
But let’s not forget about their big-hearted friends who are only one meter tall
I’m talking about the Ewoks
They were more than [...]
