Yes it had to happen some time and now some one has just gone and done it.

This looks as if it should be in some sort of sci fi film, which will account for the darkness and the size of the fish inside the telephone booth. I wonder how people have actually open the door of the phone booth, could get a bit messy!

If you like to fool around with people’s minds, then this is what you need to get and fast before they fly away!

These flies look as if they are eating your hand away, but in fact are rings that slip over your finger and look very much like the real thing. There are loads of applications that this could be used for; they are especially good when you are serving up food!

Remember my post on the Google Phone Operating System Android?

Check out this review of comparison between Google’s Android and Yahoo’s Go. Although they are completely different animals, (This guy is comparing an operating system to a web site.) it’s interesting how one giant is going for hardware while the other is shooting for software.

Go! is Yahoo’s attempt to deliver their content to multiple devices regardless of manufacturer or carrier, and you know what? It does a pretty good job of it. Go! 3.0 in it’s beta form fixed some issues with the previous version, but the biggest addition is the ability to add your own widgets from other sites, giving you more options to customize it to your liking. The more I used Go! the more I began to realize what I wanted out of Google’s Android. If you’ve never seen or used Yahoo Go!, it’s a program that you must install, then run on your handset. It essentially does away with the need to log onto Yahoo.com to access Yahoo’s content. Email, news headlines, stock updates, sports, and even a search engine are all included. I began to think “what if there was some way to make Yahoo Go! the backbone of my handset?” I would still need access to my phone book and contacts, but that shouldn’t be too difficult to implement.

I’ve summed up all the tech blog on Entrecard on SiteHoppin so you can use the following link to “site hop” tech blogs:

We will be doing a special, “Site Hoppin’” through all Entrecard tech blogs and (hopefully) get an interesting post per each one.

Being stuck in an office is definitely an incentive for someone to want to live in the country and have a small holding.

These cows are interactive too, so you could get yourself a whole herd of these guys on your desk and drive everyone mad.

This is great idea for the family dog, throw this in the back of an SUV or station wagon and the family dog will be as happy as anything.

This will fit most cars with a back door, but will need to be plugged into the cigarette lighter as this is heated for the pooch to feel nice, warm and relaxed, which is probably unlike the rest of the family who are arguing and fighting up front.

Priced at around $190
