A friend of mine forwarded this amazing video called “Sand Fantasy”, it’s truly amazing. It would be interesting to know how they achieved this setup using sand.

This has got to be one of the top coolest hacks I’ve seen in awhile. A guy takes a Nintendo PowerGlove and hacks it to allow control of the mouse cursor on the computer. So cool. Check out the awesome details.

Here is something quite unique, the NinToaster. A guy has taken the guts of a Nintendo 8-bit console system and put it into a toaster. Seems odd but a cool project in my eyes.

• In the menu left mouse click on File -> Import and Export. This will start the “Import and Export” wizard.
• Select Export Favorites and the click on “next.”
• Select Favorites to backup everything or select a specific folder and click on “next.”
• In the next window you can accept the default save directory or choose a new one. I suggest you select “Desktop” so you can easily find the file again. Click on “next.”
• Finally, click on “finish” and your Favorites will be saved to disk.

If you wish to import your bookmarks follow the above steps in reverse and instead of selecting “Import Favorites” select “Import Favorites” instead.

I believe I was listening to one of the episodes of The Chris Pirillo Show and learned about these really cool digital picture frames. Man would I love to get a couple of these. In my opinion this is the way picture frames should have been years ago. Finally they are practical. Check it out.

I ran across a new TV show done by Channel 4 in the UK called The IT Crowd. The show is about 3 employees working at Reynholm Industries in the IT Department located in the basement. The 3 employees, Jen (IT Boss), Roy and Moss are scorned and mocked by their fellow co-workers as geeky losers that are doomed to never make it back into the so called normal society.

I’ve watched the first 3 episodes available so far and it’s very entertaining and humours. Granted the show is for only a certain type of audience as it’s has many geeky technical references. I highly recommend this show to those that like this type of geeky entertainment. The coolest part of all about this show is that Channel 4 is making the episodes available for free online. Unfortunately Channel 4 only keeps the latest episode online and for UK residents only. One could get around all this if one could find a UK based public proxy server service, send in a comment if you know of one please. However for now one can use web based file hosting services and BitTorrent. See the below links.

Many as do I find it quite annoying to have applications showing all the documents you have open or also known as child windows in your Windows taskbar. In my mind these child windows should only show within the parent window/application only. Here’s how to make all child windows (documents) in Adobe Reader to not show up in the Windows taskbar and end up with just one task showing.

Steps for Adobe Acrobat Reader version 6.x and version 7.x

• Load Adobe Reader.
• Go to Edit menu -> Preferences.. or press CTRL-K.
• In the preferences dialog go to “General” on the left hand side.
• Under “General” uncheck “Show documents in the taskbar (takes effect after next launch of Acrobat)”.

I ran across this video on IFILM called “Nintendo: Oldschool Revolution” that is quite humours and done quite well. Check it out.

Well here’s another great collection of Super Bowl XL commercials. Thanks to IFILM.com we can all watch them at our leisure. I haven’t watched them all yet, but so far I would have to say my favorite of all is the “Michelob Ultra: Touch Football” commercial. Very funny. Enjoy.

I came across this funny parody of the Backstreet Boys “As Long As You Love Me” song. It is done quite well and I just had to pass it along. According to one of the sources I found, sounds like these Chinese boys have been selected by Motorola China to promote mobile phones just because of this video, amazing. You can watch all the parodies or performances these boys have created at Revver.com. Also you can see them preform live at What Tian Has Learned. I guess these are more then just a parody.
