It’s not all that surprising that comedienne Kristen Schaal brings the funny on The Daily Show and Flight of the Concords, when she’s surrounded by other gifted comedians who give her something to work with. But the fact that she can be just as hilarious standing in a white room holding a smartphone? That’s borderline [...] Source: http://www.wired.com/underwire/2011/05/kristen-schaal-smartphone/ Milla Jovovich

Based on initial sales reports and some tablet market flip flops, the few Android tablets that have hit the shelves so far seem to have crashed and burned. Early sales figures indicate that no Android tab is coming close to being the much-awaited Apple iPad alternative. But will time heal all? Does the Android tablet just need the same growing time that consumers gave the iPad? Source: http://www.technewsworld.com/rsstory/72538.html Taylor Swift

Usually, the only constraint on building a Lego creation is your imagination. Unless, that is, you build a giant structure that demands its own “Lego room.” More » Source: http://feeds.gawker.com/~r/gizmodo/full/~3/t1PPYNrEQUs/lego-fan-creates-250000+brick-garrison-of-moriah Zhang Ziyi

We’ve probably all seen a video of a cat or a dog interacting with an iPad by now, so we know that gaming isn’t just for humans.  Friskies, the cat food company, has decided to introduce games that are designed specifically for your cat’s enjoyment.  There are  three Games for Cats:  Cat Fishing, Tasty Treasures [...] Source: http://the-gadgeteer.com/2011/05/26/friskies-introduces-games-for-your-cats/ Samantha Morton

If you used Windows XP for a long time (who didn’t?), one of the biggest changes when moving to Windows 7 or Vista was the massively-altered Explorer. While the new Explorer introduces some useful new features, it also removed just as many — which is where Classic Shell comes in! We’ve covered Classic Shell before, but here’s the crib note: Classic Shell restores almost every Windows XP-era Explorer feature. The best change, in our opinion, [...]

A good mobile application is a fine balance between simplicity and functionality. You’re using it on the go, so you don’t have a lot of time to sit there and fumble with the phone to figure it all out. But you also need it to be powerful enough to let you do whatever it is you’re trying to get done. Hello Expense is one mobile app that gets it right. It’s an expense tracker that [...]

As far as Tetris goes, most variations look quite similar. You’re usually looking at a “wall” of bricks directly from the front. Torus takes that notion and throws it away; as you might have guessed from the name (or screenshot), this Tetris clone is played on a ring-like 3D surface. You rotate the ring itself with the arrow keys, while a Tetris-like piece slowly (excruciatingly slowly, in fact) descends from the top. As soon as [...]

We first saw the prototype a few weeks back but now we’re getting a look at it in all of its blurrycam glory. Again, it looks like this will be a Gingerbread-powered device, with 1GHz processor under the hood, a 480 x 320 resolution screen, and 3.2 MP rear facing camera [...]
