This'll teach that punk at the bank not to interrupt me while I'm trying to win Hall & Oates comeback tour tickets from Delilah on WARM 106.9. Dude, I don't care if it's my turn, you're gonna get an iPhone case brass...

The Swiss LimbIC chair, which looks more like part of an amusement part ride than a cubicle fixture, proposes to take ergonomic furniture to new levels of comfort, freedom, and neurological stimulation. Kind of like the...

Germophobe or not, there's no denying keyboards be cesspools of dirty, dirty, germy, gross grossness. Like, probably if someone asked you if you would rather lick a keyboard or lick a stripper pole, you would say a keyboard...

The LED Cube's 3D light show enjoys a fine piece of video marketing. That is, when its 40-second YouTube circus of flashing, running, strobing, tightrope-walking lights ends, I feel so sad and empty. I have to watch it...

One thing I like when I am talking on the phone is complete silence with no interruptions from the other end. Some of the best conversations I've had have occurred when the cell phone signal was actually lost, but I didn't...

The day has come. Never again will we be forced to set down either our beers or our plates before administering a high five during tailgates, backyard BBQs, and the Journey featuring Special Guests Foreigner and Night...

Gas cans and guitar amps. Only the Finns could think to broker a merger of the two. Handcrafted in Finland, the V8 T.A.N.K 20W mobile guitar amplifier allows for more than 8 hours of continuous rocking out, and then recharges...

The PRJ016 iPhone 4 Micro Projector is a revamped version of Sanwa's original smartphone sleeve, which magnifies handheld microcosmic visuals, and then blares them into macrocosm across walls or white screens for large...

Smartphones already allow us to wield technological power that would make my grandma's head spin right off her neck (may she rest in peace*) and iPhones and Androids indeed place the world at our fingertips. But what...

While I'm not entirely sure how I feel about waking up to the sound of oinking, to the idea of waking up to the smell of sweet, smoky carnivore's candy, I say, "Hell. Yeeeahhh." Instructables savant Nelson Yepez has devised...
