RelaxStyle Room Palette Effect Lamp Is Classier Than A Disco Ball

Some have nightmares of drowning, and others have dreams of swimming through the ocean, conversing with the sea creatures. The RelaxStyle Room Palette Effect Lamp projects underwater wave-like patterns on your wall and ceiling, producing an extremely relaxing environment to fall asleep, or to seduce the ladies into submissiveness.
After 120-minutes, you can set the Lamp tp automatically shut its off so that you don’t waste power by keeping it on all night while you doze in sleepy land. And not to mention, it seems like a must for a bachelor pad. Ditch the disco ball for something more classy. Get yours for $69. — Andrew Dobrow

No commentsCreator Of Pong Working On An MMO: Probably Has Nothing To Do With Pong

We thought the idea of Nolan Bushnell, creator of Pong, one of the first and most well-known video games worldwide, was a really interesting idea. If he could think of something with the lasting power of Pong, what could he offer the world of MMOs?
Bushnell comments that he is indeed working on an MMO, but than mysteriously added “as compelling as World of Warcraft is, it too shall find that there are other ways to play a game.” So we’re thinking the Bushnell MMO won’t be your traditional fantasy dragon slayer game. — Andrew Dobrow

No commentsThe Suntory Mermaid II Wave Powered Boat

You can’t say the Earth doesn’t contain enough water. Nope there is more than enough of that for sure. So why are we not using it more? Especially for sea-going vessels. The Suntory Mermaid II is a boat that uses something waves to provide it the energy it needs to move.
Being touted as the greenest nautical power source since the sail, the Mermaid II uses two fins side-by-side along the bow which are moved by the waves to produce a dolphin-like kicking propulsion movement. The only drawback is that the Suntory will move at around five knots, which is 2-3 times slower than your average diesel ship. — Andrew Dobrow

No commentsTopsy-Turvy School Bus Turns Child’s Life Inside Out

I don’t know about you, but if I was still in elementary school, and one day a bus like this came to pick me up, I would flip the fuck out! The Topsy-Turvy Bus defies the laws of reality by offering a mirror image of itself, on top of….itself.
At least if this bus were to flip over in an accident, it would almost always land on its wheels. (more…)

No commentsPhilips LED Wall Is Just A Huge Lite Brite Set (Plus, An Unneeded Carlos Mencia Reference)

Way to go and steal other peoples ideas and enlarging them a few hundred times, Philips. Do you really want to be the Carlos Mencia of gadgets? The huge touch-sensitive LED Wall is being shown as an attraction at Mercy Medical Center in Rogers, Arkansas.
The LED Wall is a 14 foot long creation which holds more than 1,400 LED bulbs which respond to touch. So, it’s pretty much a incredibly large Lite Brite set. And we thought we had rid ourselves of those damn light pegs. — Andrew Dobrow

No commentsi-Buddy - USB powered Windows Live Messenger desk bound avatar

i-Buddy. This three inch tall USB powered gidget responds to Windows Messenger messages by flapping wings, twisting its body or pulsing lights according to the emoticons used.
