Mostly new stuff, or stuff used in a new way:
- Via Engagdet, we find an innovation in dog-walking. I give it three days before I see a young Asian woman in Yaletown rolling around her tiny, tiny dog in one of these things. I want to see a super-sized version of one of these, for taking your cougar for a walk.
- Brilliant protest idea that merges a bike, a laptop and five cans of spraypaint.
- From Becky, find out what celebrities you look like. Apparently I’m the spitting image of Rutger Hauer, Russell Crowe and Orlando Bloom. Yeah, right. Clearly my Hollywood doppleganger is actually Scott Foley.
- They’re nutty over at the BBC, and apparently have money to burn. Now, instead of video replays, you can see multi-angle, lousy quality virtual renderings of each goal.
- Via collision detection, what do you do with a deceased passenger on long-haul flights?
- The 10 most sexy and least sexy players in Euro 2004. Where’s Freddy Ljungberg? Has his chiselled good looks fallen out of fashion?
- Least exciting game ever.
- Man writes lengthy comparative review of silicone sex dolls. Not safe for work, and kind of gross.
- Go on, you’re having us on, aren’t you?
- Finally, Nepalese farmers go wireless. They’re big into the online yakking. Sorry, there’s no excuse for that.
The yak comment is entirely appropriate, given that the network was set up by Mr. Pun.
I always thought you looked like a bit like Rivers Cuomo from Weezer (guy in the red jacket). but that’s just me.
Chris: I can’t believe I missed that.
Dan: Indeed, there is a resemblance there. And, of course, we both kind of look like Buddy Holly.
