You may just have a few more days for the iPad to arrive in your hands, but somebody out there is set to make hay while the tablet shines. Imagine an iPad decked in diamonds! Guys at Mervis Diamond Exporters have just put up for sale on their site an iPad that looks like it has fallen in a pit full of diamonds. We are just shocked!
There’s something weird about it, but we geeks/nerds just can’t react naturally or convey normal emotions when we lay our eyes on a cute little robot. Well folks if cute is your thing, you may want to browse away as today we’re into wicked robots that bring fear to your veins and make you run for your life. Here are 13 robots we’d certainly keep away from.
Blonde haired with baby-doll lingerie, I don’t think robots can get any sexier than that. With an appearance that emphasize their sexuality, meet Fembots, the female androids that try to seduce and kill Austin Powers. Although the Fembots don’t succeed in their mission, I’m pretty sure their breast-mounted machine guns would be fatal for mere mortals like you and me. Definitely keeping away.
Any guesses on which was the most pirated game of 2009? If the answer is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, you got it right. The game, which sold more than 6 million copies in November alone, had created a record of sorts. Now, it has been revealed that the immensely popular game of 2009 has also become the most pirated game of the passing year.
Deficient! That’s what Verizon has prefers to call it. If you haven’t yet seen the new advertisements put out by Verizon in time for the Christmas season, you may check them out on Verizon’s YouTube page. It seems like Verizon has gone the whole hog attacking the iPhone! In fact, it’s the iPhone carrier AT&T that has come under major fire.
Google’s doodles are interesting as most of the time they highlight really interesting stuff, but this time it’s an unexplained phenomenon. The Google homepage logo today shows an UFO that is trying to abduct the O in the text and links to the search results for [unexplained phenomenon]. Weird as it may seem, the doodle might be a reference to today’s Exeter UFO Festival.
More to it, Google has posted an encrypted message on their Twitter page that says “1.12.12 25.15.21.18 15 1.18.5 2.5.12.15.14.7 20.15 21.19” and which translates to “All Your O Belong to Us“. Hence why the logo URL is http://www.google.com/logos/go_gle.gif — see the missing O in there?
There’s something fishy at the Google headquarters, so can anyone confirm if there have been any kidnappings at the Googleplex? Meanwhile, you may want to take a look at the top 10 unexplained phenomena to get a better grip!
Boo!
If you’re not buying online, what clothes do you dress with when you go shopping at Walmart? Well from today you’ll better be careful with your outfit as the People of Walmart website has their eyes on you and if it’s not Armani and Gucci you’ll end up being featured in the worst-dressed customers category. More to it, make sure you watch your weight and have your mustache styled for not being poked fun at.
It literally looks as if there is a large rat laying on his head.
The People of Walmart blog was founded last month by Andrew, his brother Adam and their friend Luke after a trip to a South Carolina branch earlier this month. That’s where they got to see a stripper with a 2-year old in one of those dog harnesses, and around the corner a guy with a ZZ Top beard
“We all have seen the people who obviously don’t have mirrors and/or family and friends to lock them in a basement, and they all seem to congregate at Walmart. It’s not everywhere that you can shop for milk at 10 a.m. next to a 400lb mother of 6 wearing a pink tube top, leopard tights, and hooker heels” said one of the founders
People of Walmart invites others to take pictures and send them over to make those guys “famous”.

In these crazy times where technological evolution is headed for the skies, it still feels great to know that there are people interested in creating different variants of a non-scientific hand-held calculator. I thought for a while whether this should feature here or not but then, the idea of a water powered device overpowered all other thoughts in a jiffy.
Agreed that all of us possess cellphones that come with decent calculators and there is very less chance that we will pocket something like this, I would still insist that you give this product a thought.
Microsoft’s much hyped search engine is either making fun of Apple and their products or is actually confused. Apparently a search on Bing to see why is Windows so expensive, returns a first result that explains you why are Macs so expensive. That’s right, the search engine has no clue why you need to pay hundreds and hundreds of dollars for Windows, but knows why Macs do! Could that mean that Microsoft is blocking and self-protecting with Bing or is it just a matter of messed up search results, because one thing’s for sure … they’re not subtle at all. Still, it’s funny.
The Internet is a strange place and if you’re online as much as we are it’s inevitable not to get something really interesting to write about. Take the 2009 Buick Open on Sunday where our favorite golfer, Tiger Woods, has won the 1st place. The way he did it is what holds the first spot as the most searched-for video on Google today — Tiger Woods Farts. Apparently mr. Woods couldn’t keep things in and blatantly farted at the 18th hole right after Steve William’s stroke (if it’s not the grass …)
More to it, if the PGA hadn’t chosen to remove the funny clip from YouTube on grounds of copyright infringement, the Tiger Woods fart video would probably rock the “charts” in there, too. Probably that’s why the PGA hasn’t uploaded the file to their dedicated channel on YouTube or on their official website — creating a much bigger spiral/viral effect.
Check out the Tiger Woods fart video below.
AT&T is rumored to have blocked parts of the popular Internet forum 4Chan because the site is renowned for being a wild wild west that prides with its irreverent lack of moderation and a highly NSFW environment. The reason why AT&T blocks 4Chan for security purposes or probably in response to complaints or concerns about legal liability related to some of the content published in there.
“It’s come to our attention that AT&T is filtering/blocking img.4chan.org (/b/ & /r9k/) for many of their customers. There is no remedy at this time,” the guys behind 4Chan reported on their official blog.
