Theremin-controlled Super Mario

Posted by Pete Berg on Monday, July 27th, 2009 at 8:32 am

Probably not the best way to play Mario, but still pretty neat.

McDonald’s goes CGI

Posted by Pete Berg on Saturday, July 25th, 2009 at 4:01 am

The future of food advertisements is to fake them with CG rather than hiring a food stylist to dress up fast food to look all nice and snazzy.

Ferrofluids!

Posted by Sean Brogan on Tuesday, July 14th, 2009 at 7:32 pm

What do you get when you suspend nanoparticles of iron in a colloidal solution of water, oil and a surfactant? Ferrofluids, a liquid that reacts to magnetic fields in trippy ways that make you think that science is both magical and potentially evil.

Posted by Jeff Picarello on Sunday, July 12th, 2009 at 11:00 pm

I’m calling it now… the giant green robot will be the first to consciously kill a human to “end its suffering”.

I’m sure that guy gets a lot of girls to sleep with him in that bed too.

Two Music Videos shot on iPhone 3GS — both claim to be the first ever

Posted by Pete Berg on Tuesday, July 7th, 2009 at 3:31 pm

Two music videos were released on the same day, and both of them claim to be the first ever music video shot on an iPhone 3GS. I’m not sure which is officially the “first,” but they’re both pretty good. The iPhone has a pretty good video camera (if you’re shooting video for the web).

Blast into Space, Spectacular Fall to Earth

Posted by Pete Berg on Tuesday, July 7th, 2009 at 12:54 pm

Onboard cameras capture the amazing journey of Atlantis into space, and the dramatic return of the solid rocket boosters. Really amazing, especially starting about halfway through when the booster rockets fall off and fall back to splash into the ocean.

Waterproof iPhone

Posted by Pete Berg on Sunday, July 5th, 2009 at 1:28 am

Was trying video on my new iPhone 3G S at the pool and dropped it in the pool. Don’t know if it’s waterproof, but it still works fine. I had a few people comment on seeing a strap in the video. I have a rubber cover and had put a strap through the earpiece hole to avoid just this type of thing. I didn’t have it on my wrist at the time, but believe me, I will from now on!!!! Maybe the rubber cover helped with it not getting damaged.

Really, Microsoft? Really?

Posted by Pete Berg on Wednesday, July 1st, 2009 at 9:16 am

Microsoft is trying to do a viral marketing campaign for its web browser Internet Explorer 8, so they’ve enlisted former Superman, Dean Cain (whose career has fallen to a new low), and they’re making lame, disgusting puke jokes. Also, the feature they’re highlighting is already in every other browser on the market. If anything, this proves how incredibly lame Internet Explorer is.

Weird Sewer Creatures

Posted by Pete Berg on Tuesday, June 30th, 2009 at 10:27 am

Some unknown life form has been discovered in sewers (“notice the retraction of a stiff nail like object from the third and last creature from the seam in the pipe”). This video is exactly how numerous horror / sci-fi movies start.
