These are what are what you call ear buds, a bit too large to place in your ears, unless you have a huge head.

These giant sized ear buds will make a great addition to the top of desk or work space, and because they are giant sized they look really cool and have got to get people talking, which is great. They are in fact 500 times the size of a regular set of ear buds.

This may look like a flash drive, but it’s not because it is a power drive which will power up any device as fast as it would if you had plugged it into the wall.

This is a good idea if you are going to be out all long and have no way of charging up an essential device. To charge it up it needs to be placed into the USB port for around ninety minutes, this can then be taken with you and by using one of the nine connectors supplied is can then be used on cell phones, mp 3 players and other devices.

Now this is what you call a camera, measuring in at seventeen inches by six inches, it has a massive 900 mb of storage and 160 mega pixels.

Clearly this is not the sort of thing that you can carry around with you, but there just has to be a call for something like this otherwise they would not have made it, would they? There is however a slight price issue.

Wow, these guys know how to make use of Flickr API. Here’s a 3D Tiltviewer that let’s you hop different Flickr pictures in 3D!

TiltViewer allows you to browse Flickr’s most interesting images in a 3D space. Images are pulled from Flickr’s Interestingness list.

TiltViewer was built using Away3D, a branch of Papervision. Currently Away3D provides better handling of mouse events for nested 3D Objects. One limitation of Away3D is that there is no access to a 3D object’s sprite, so you can’t apply filter or alpha effects. I’m guessing that soon these features will be added to both engines.

Does a 3D UI give more functionality than the equivalent 2D interface? No, but its certainly a lot cooler! Part of the motivation to build this was to explore ways to make 3D interfaces simple and intuitive.

Being able to load Flickr images into a 3D engine was recently made possible when Flickr added crossdomain XMLs to it’s image servers. Thanks Flickr!

Imagine that all you need is to shake hands with someone to get all of their personal info; well this could be true soon if the concept design gets the thumbs up.

You get a card and ring, the data on the card is transferred onto ring and when you shake hands with another ring holder the data is exchanged.

No need to worry about power either the rings are powered by the heat from your body.

Here’s a quick 2AM post on how to use Internet Explorer in Firefox as a tab.

First, go to your Firewall application and deny Internet Explorer for incoming and outgoing network traffic. This will protect you against malicious IE hackers.

Second, download and install this cool IE tab Firefox extension for your Firefox.

Now, simply right click and select “View page in IE Tab” for any website you need to use IE.

I like this extension simply because I can view SiteHoppin in Firefox and IE without opening up 2 browsers.
