For more details on any of these gadgets, head on over to Gizmodo.

Believe it or not, not all slackers with too much time on their hands start their own blogs.  Some of them do productive things with their lives--like volunteering, or donating blood, or.... creating sentient lifeforms out of their toilets.

Yes, we've all had that annoying toilet that doesn't flush all the way unless you hold the handle down for a couple of seconds. You can be a moderately well-adjusted human being and buy the 10 cent part to fix it...

...or, on the other hand, you can do this. 

What does it say about me that I'm more impressed by this technological advancement than I am by the potential for a Mars landing?

When I was a little kid I saw Gremlins and wanted my own Mogwai.  You know, a cute furry little cuddle partner and someone to play my Yamaha synthesizer with. 

Eventually my parents explained to me that "Gizmo" was nothing more than an animatronic sock puppet, and I turned my attention to more realistic fantasies--like Blair from The Facts of Life.

On the other hand, if I wanted my own Transformer...apparently that was possible. 

Easy Japan... you might think this is cute, but one morning you wake up and you've created SkyNet.

Sarah Connor wants you to watch this video...

In a stunning announcement sure to send shockwaves through the the mammary-loving free world, British scientists claim they can create a fat mixture with concentrated stem cells, which, when injected into the breast, apparently encourages tissue to grow.

And in the unlikely event that you're still doubting the existence of a wise and benevolent God, doctors will obtain the necessary fat/stem cell mixture by removing some of the "abundance" from your girlfriend's already all too generous booty.

The special cells are placed into a cartridge ready for injection one hour later.  The company funding the research says the breasts will then fill out over the course of six months. 

Talk about giving new meaning to the phrase, "A watched pot never boils..."

After exchanging high fives and engaging in a number of poorly executed "endzone-like" celebrations with his team,  Surgeon Rajiv Grover did temper the titillating atmosphere with a disclaimer.

"We need to find out how these cells work once they are in the breast before any great claims can be made," he stated.

The procedure is expensive - costing a few thousand pounds per cartridge, but how can one put a price on happiness?

All kidding aside, this technology was developed for women who have suffered through mastectomies.   While we may all "enjoy the benefits" of this medical breakthrough one day, pretty cool that this is on the horizon for women who have been through so much hardship....

CNN is reporting that Sony has cut the price of the PlayStation 3 by $100, or 17 percent, in the United States, a move that should boost the video game console's lackluster sales

Jack Tretton, chief executive of Sony Computer Entertainment America, offered the following:


Translation? Good news for our nerd brethren...now you can afford a Playstation, an iPhone and dinner for your imaginary girlfriend...

If you do a lot of tailgating at Shea, this badboy needs to be in your collection.  We're not exactly sure where the functionality ends, but we're betting there's a rocket launcher in there somewhere.

Head on over to Gizmodo to get a closer look.

Seriously, if James Bond had a grill this would be the one.

The grill comes in at about $200, but there's a catch.  You have to hop a flight to Japan to get one.  The "Zojirushi" grill is only available in Japan.

Okay, maybe this doesn't fall under the "Cool Tech" category... maybe more like "Uncool Tech." In any event, CNN reports that one-third of teens are now claiming to be bullied online.

Wow, like it's not already hard enough being a geek.  When we were kids the computer, particularly the home computer, was the sanctuary of geekdom.   Ah, we remember it well... the warm glow of the monitor, our underwear comfortably unwedged, repeatedly saving Zelda from evil forces unknown....

The report goes on to site the most common forms of cyberbullying as publicly disclosing someone else's private e-mail or messages, sending threatening or aggressive messages and spreading rumors online.

Wait a minute.  This is what passes for teen bullying?  It's the same thing we adults do at work for fun.

In all seriousness, this report does accomplish something-- it establishes the litmus test for actually being a geek.  If you're complaining about being bullied through your computer...well, your a geek.

In a previous post we questioned the durability of Apple's new shiny happy contraption--the iPhone.  How could this gleaming piece of technology withstand the rigors of daily life, let alone our stubby pizza grease stained little fingers?

We weren't about to stand in line all night to find out for ourselves, but it didn't take long to find some geeks who did.  Head on over to PC World for some video of a random egg-head going medieval on one of these things.

We were surprised to see how well the iPhone stood up, but we still can't understand how you spend $500 on anything that doesn't involve a hotel room, a bottle of Jack, and, ultimately, a terrible dark secret that you'll have to keep hidden for the rest of your life...

From the "just asking" file...

We have to admit, the iPhone looks really cool and our first impulse is to want to one.... but before we go out and spend $499 for 4GB or $599 for 8GB and buy a 2 year AT&T subcription plan for the thing, we have one question:

How on earth are we not going to destroy this shiny happy contraption in less than an a week?   We don't know about yours, but our cell phones take more abuse than Bill Buckner on Yawkey Way.

For those of you who absolutely have to have one, the iPhone will go on sale at Apple Stores throughout the nation at 6 p.m. on June 29th.  Be prepared to stand in line behind the geek you used to beat up in high-school.

Analysts are anticipating that the evening of June 29th will mark the lowest Internet porn download numbers since the release of the last Star Wars film...
