We’ve seen a slew of solar-powered lamps in the last couple years but this is the very first time “dirt”, (yes, the stuff that’s on your ground) has been used to power a lamp. We wonder how long this will go, specifically when it will be available to the consumers.
The soil lamp uses the chemical reaction between copper, zinc, and slightly moistened mud to create enough electrical current to power an LED lamp. More cells can be used to create a brighter light
Here’s a guy who built a really powerful (lookin’) electric bike, fitted with batteries that can jump even cars. There’s even an onboard GPS so you can never get lost while a full charge gets you up to 150 miles.

I have once played golf with one of the executives at AMD and he was telling me that future of computer chips are in organic chips sorta similar to human brain.
Well, here’s one of the first signs of that, a robot controlled by rat brain!
The robot’s biological brain is made up of cultured neurons which are placed onto a multi electrode array (MEA). The MEA is a dish with approximately 60 electrodes which pick up the electrical signals generated by the cells. This is then used to
Lifehacker has a new post that features some cool hacks for GMail, GoogleDocs, and some other hacks you can’t miss.
Are you using Google Spreadsheets as your web-based spreadsheet editor alternative to desktop programs like Excel? If you do, give the “magic” auto-completions a try. To understand what this does, enter “Superman” in the top left cell, and enter “Batman” and “Wonder Woman” in the cells below. Now select all three cells you created. Hold down the Ctrl key, and drag the bottom right corner of the selection downwards ov
Oh boy, this reminds me of all the cool watches reviewed plus some more…

Well, just in case my cornea goes bad….that’s what I meant….
