what the …?!

Read about this on Google News this morning, and I’ve been scratching my head ever since.

a continuous lapse in judgment, pt.2

Let me translate that Japanese text for you. What we have here is a USB-powered seat cooler, for those times when the office air conditioning just ain’t doing it for your hot crossed buns, or for after your boss hogs your PC because it’s way faster than his no-harddrive-memory-left, last-time-i-defragged-it-was-when-Movement-was-still-standing computer.

a continuous lapse in judgment

Anyone remember the Segway Human Transporter? It debuted in the mass market three years ago, and was supposed to revolutionise the way we skip off to the 7 Eleven for a brew and a Kit Kat. The revolution didn’t come. Yeah, a few people are using Segways to get around these days (not here in […]

free offline music

I was in the Bukit Bintang district a couple of days ago when i came across this 10-man strong group of buskers performing in front of a highly-piqued audience of shoppers, professional lepakologists, tourists and a couple of policemen who looked like they were trying to figure out if they could fit all this musical […]
