Okay, it’s officially recession economy these days with more and more people losing jobs while foreclosure rates are at sky high.
If you own a small business, you might be interested to know that there’s a contest going on where you can win $2000 in Office Depot products. The rules state that you need to own or work at a small business with less than 100 employees.
Basically you need to upload a 2 minute video of how your business is surviving/thriving in this recession economy. Heck, I will
Here’s a really cool Sky Lasers 125mW green laser. Apart from 125mW of power, this green laser comes with a key and you can lock it so it doesn’t accidently get used by your kids. (via hackedgadgets)

Here’s a really cool project that can complement any of your future solar projects. It’s a solar DIY that shows you how to make a solar photovoltaic tracker that will follow the sun’s angles, thereby increasing the efficiency of your solar cells and more energy produced.
For a class project (PV Design, Appalachian State, Dr. Dennis Scanlin) I decided to try making a low cost PV (photovoltaic) tracker. Being able to follow the sun’s path through the sky can raise your solar panel system’s output considerably (30-50%),
Check out this EarthRace Boat which runs on 100% biodiesel and is 100% carbon neutral, meaning this cool boat doesn’t excrete any CO2 or poisonous fumes to the atmosphere.
It’s been an exciting month as we’ve seen green transportation records set on the ground and in the sky, so naturally we are taking the next step and bringing you to the sea with the Earthrace, a 78 ft tri-hull “wavepiercer”. The biodiesel boat recently completed a carbon-neutral tour of the globe in an incredible 60 days and 23 hours, besting the previous world rec
Here’s a funny satellite dish that is in a rectangular shape. I am not sure how effective it is compared to a regular ol’ satellite dish but it does look like a great substitute.
The Sqish is a quirky contemporary alternative to a satellite dish.
What does it do?
The Sqish can can be aimed at mid and high powered satellites including Astra, Hotbird and Eurobird. It can be used to receive Sky and Freesat in the UK.
Wow, check out some of these shots taken with World Wide Telescope from Microsoft!
Microsoft’s WorldWide Telescope is out… I’m going to install it soon and compare it to Google’s “Sky” and

Since I have been playing with green lasers for about a year, I never saw any good use for them except to point them to the sky or buildings.
Since the green laser has a lot of power, especially the one DragonLasers sent me recently, I decided it was time to make a simple green laser projector without me spen
Hey, we are back on a super-fast server from Cari.net. We had to move to a quad CPU dedicated server due to traffic and slow load times. Aplus.net didn’t have any faster CPU than dual-core so we had to move. Anyways, I just got my cool green dragon laser from Dragon Lasers last week. I will shoot a video soon to show it off. (And yeah, we are giving them some free ads for the free sample!) Thanks Frank for the $400 green laser! 🙂 I’ve been very busy pointing it at the sky and other things. It’s really
