Check out this awesome Speed Vest, which let’s other drivers on the road how fast the biker is going.

The SPEED-VEST is a bicycle safety device and advocacy tool which displays the wearer’s current speed on their back in easy-to-read lighted numerals. It improves rider conspicuity while legitimizing bicycle speeds on the roadway. Originally conceived by Brady Clark and engineered by Mykle Hansen, it just won the Hub Bike Shop’s Bike Gadget Contest in Minneapolis, MN.

Check out this cool Ganzbot that can talk.  The Ganzbot can also read Twitter posts and show emotion.

This funny little robot has eyes, eyebrows and a mouth and will verbally read your latest Twitter status to you. It uses an Arduino Decima to control the head actions and receives the latest Twitter status information over USB from a host computer.

For those who don’t know, Twitter is a micro blogging tool where users announce what they’re doing with 140 characters or less. You can also send the robot something to say directly from the command line with a few Ganzbot moods to choose from.

Here’s a video demo of the new Blackberry Bold. It looks pretty good, I think you need to install Opera Mini take advantage of the Blackberry though.

Something we should point out as well is that when using Internet Explorer or Firefox browser emulation, a lot of sites don’t load and it gives an error, even over 3G or Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi was turned off for the first part of the video, and then later turned on. What do you think of the browser now that you’ve seen it in action?

I do prefer wooden USBs over plastic ones simply due to the fact that they are more shock-absorbent upon dropping them from high floors.

This one is from Japan and does indeed look pretty cool.

I like this Wooden Thumb Drive. Its casing is made of cedar wood and provides 1GB of storage capacity. The Wooden Thumb Drive retails for approx. $62 in Japan.

Here’s a great idea for watching movies while driving using the iPhone.  Of course, if you get in an accident while doing so, don’t blame me.  I only told you that you “could”, but not that you “should” do that.

Now, it might be a good idea to use GoogleMaps on that dashboard if you don’t want to watch movies but drive efficiently to your destination.

Why don’t I feel better because he usually only uses his headset in one ear “so that I can hear the traffic and whatnot?”

Here’s the most comfortable looking flip flops branded as Krispy Kreme.  I have no idea why anyone would make these for the donut conglomerate but it sure looks comfortable and I might have to get one to test out against my current bamboo flip flops.

It’s probably a PR stunt by Krispy Kreme but I do like the fact that you can grow grass on your flip flops while having to enjoy them.

Think of it this way, you get to go outside for a walk in the grass without actually going anywhere.

Krispy Kreme questioned over 1,000 UK workers and found that over half (53 per cent) of urbanites believe their stress levels are affected by a lack of contact with Mother Nature. In response to the problem Krispy Kreme has created the world’s first grass flip-flops to bring summer magic to the city – giving stressed out workers a (literal) spring in their step by creating an instant grassy park underneath their feet regardless of their urban location.

The al fresco flip-flops take up to three weeks to grow and each shoe is covered with over 5,000 blades of grass. If watered regularly the unique footwear can remain in season for over four months – meaning they are the perfect, head-turning summer-accessory for stressed-out men and women.

Here’s a really cool PC Case mod, a DIY on how to make mirror-finish PC Case surface.

Spray paint your PC case and give it a mirror finish.
You won’t need expensive painting equipment and supplies.
You’ll find most of the products I used at hardware and
automotive stores.

3M Perfect It III Compounds and 3M Imperial Hand Glaze is usually sold in Autobody Supply Stores, but I’ve linked them to an online resource.
I prefer using carnauba type car wax, but any automotive wax will work fine.
Regardless of wax used, you must allow paint to cure for at least 30 days before applying wax.

Do you have a manual stick-shift car?  Then, you might want to look into building your own Human Hand Stick Shifter and do lots of high fives everytime you drive.

I think few people who drive manual transmission cars actively think about driving as controlling a gigantic machine moving with a lot of momentum, via a huge rod that goes directly through the floor and moves a set of meshing teeth around in an engine that’s actually running. It’s one of the few places today where you’re moving mechanical bits around in a real machine. So the idea behind the hand is to remember that you’re working with the car to make it move, sort of holding the car’s hand.

This new educational kit lets you explore the mechanisms involved in harnessing the alternative energy of wind power. The windmill features loop-wing design that can be rotated by the slightest breeze. You can also run while holding it to generate wind artificially. The kit comes with a rechargeable vehicle that uses power generated by the windmill, running for 1-2 minutes for each 5-10 minute of charge.

The WineRack is a great boob-enhancer/drink-stash that you will need the next time you go to that expensive club and you don’t want to pay for every drink.

This comfortable sports-style bra contains a special hooter-enhancing polyurethane bladder that can be filled with your drink of choice. Simply slip it on, fill up with wine or whatever and wear it under your regular clothes. You can then indulge in a spot of stealth drinking via the WineRack’s adjustable drinking tube. With a rack like this, girls’ nights out will never be the same again. As for boys’ nights out, well, the mind boggles.

Isiah Johnson of Chevy Chase, Maryland, was busted by a GPS equipped turtle, who is obviously good at finding his own stash to eat. (or do turtles smoke too?)

Too bad he isn’t a medical marijuana card holder living in San Francisco (he’d have been legally allowed to grow like 5-10 plants), he is stuck with Maryland’s gay laws and probably head to jail or probation at the least.

A Chevy Chase resident was arrested last week in connection with a marijuana field growing in Rock Creek Park south of the Maryland line.

Isiah Johnson, 19, a resident of the 2300 block of Washington Avenue, was charged July 30 with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute after United States Park Police discovered 10 marijuana plants growing in a remote part of the park.

Here’s some leaked pics of what the Nike+ would look like working with the iPhone.  You do have to admit iPhone is useless for fast internet browsing on the go but it may proved to be a very good tool for running around like crazy and graphing out how you ran.

the biggest improvement over the old Nike system may be Google Maps support:

We don’t know just how robust the Nike+ maps support will be, but mapping routes directly on the iPhone could make for more organized training sessions. If only we had the coordination to use the iPhone’s touch interface while running.
