I stumbled onto this Mister Wong Bookmarking site. It looks really cool…maybe we will make one like it.

Mister Wong is Europe’s largest portal of its kind, with over two million visitors per month. The service was founded by Kai Tietjen in March 2006. Though it started in German, Mister Wong is meanwhile available in Russian, Chinese, Spanish, and French. The German version already has over two million linked websites saved by its users.

This takes you back to when the iPod was just figment of Apples little eye, this steampunk version dates back to the nineteenth century, which must have been when they were designed.

But on a more serious not, these are actually covers, these give an inside look into what an old and ancient iPod would have looked like, but the music may have been a slight probe, back then!

Prices are from $14.95

Cool, someone made a Lego NXT Fireworks Robot!

This autonomous NXT robot will light multiple fireworks in a sequence - while the family sits back and watch the display!!

It uses a MINDSTORMS NXT, two light sensors (one for navigation and other to detect a lighted fuse) and an Ultrasonic detector (to adjust the torch arm height depending on the height of the fireworks fuse wire. It uses three motors - two for motion and and the third for the torch arm elvator.

Naturally when you are super wealthy there is not much that you need, apart from health and friendship. So you have to buy something pretty spectacular to impress them and their friends, I mean that is all that matters doesn’t it?

This is the Lantic Systems, solid gold remote control for everything on the yacht! This can control home media and automation systems including video, audio, internet, CCTV, alarm, lights, curtains, air-conditioning and even navigation systems.

So naturally there is a need for a yacht here, but it may be ok in the home, but would seem to be a little being extravagant, but if you can afford a yacht then maybe this is the only thing that they would want.

Priced at $55,000.

So, you want to make some sounds with the Arduino you just bought last Friday? Check out uCHobby as they show you how to do some basic stuff with sound and Arduino including how to make “Hello World” sound using a PC speaker.

This is the second in a series of articles about generating sound with an Arduino. The first article covered the various methods available for sound generation with an Arduino. In this article we take a small step; “Hello World” for Arduino sound. We prepare for our future experiments by hooking up a PC or powered speaker so we can hear the Arduino sing.

So, you want to make your own YouTube site? Well, you can using some free software such as PHPMotion. We are working on a new video site (classified) but in the meanwhile you can make your own YouTube using this software. BE AWARE: PHPMotion is probably the hardest software to install ever and you probably would fail your first time around. You need a 32-bit server to start with. I found out this by trying to install it on a 64-bit server, which is what Zedomax runs on.

Just read the instructions well and you should be able to make your own Youtube Clone soon. And make sure to thank Zedomax.com for this info…
