Apple i Keynote Parody is Spot On

College Humor is running a parody of Steve in Keynote mode, we know it isn't the first or won't be the last, but it has some of the Steve's actions, crowd reactions and the overall atmosphere pretty much down to perfection. On top of all that, it does a good job at making us laugh—just look at the damn product description! The sketch even includes a commercial demonstration, and the whole clip is quality through and through. Hit the link for the video and then let us know if you'd be first in line to purchase the i. We definitely would—hey, it's chromy, glassy and shiny. [College Humor]

Xbox 360: Will it Microwave?

It's Sunday, and it just wouldn't be right if a group of destructive loons were not prepared to put their faulty, plausibly repairable Xbox 360 into a microwave. Naturally, the mob breathed in the ensuing toxic fumes happily, all in the name of ~~science~~ comedy and cheap thrills. That kind of devotion we must salute, but for the tortured Xbox 360, our heart melts, much like its innards did. Oh, the humanity. Check out the video then hit the link for a slew of shots of the despicable carnage. [Microwave Science]

Video Camera Karate Sketch is the Stuff of Dreams

This sketch by Human Giant is about kicking video cameras. It's funny, and you really should be watching this show. But what I really like is how it was written: in a dream. More »

Video of BigDog Beta Quadruped Robot Is So Stupid It's Hilarious

If you thought Humanity was damned after watching the latest BigDog quadruped robot, prepare to loot the nearest supermarket and run for the hills, because this video of the beta version of BigDog will leave you in awe. And probably make you wet your pants like some of the best Monty Python skits. Peter Furia (who I hope is Nick's cousin and works at SHIELD) sent us the exclusive high resolution footage this morning and told us the story behind it. More »

Apple Opening Peepshows In Apple Stores Worldwide

LONDON, United Kingdom (Agencies). Following a successful pilot program in the London Apple Store, and perhaps too many caipirinhas at the Infinite Loop party which followed yesterday's iPhone SDK presentation, a visibly tipsy Steve Jobs announced the introduction of a new Peepshow feature in all Apple Stores worldwide: More »

To Test Waterproof Cameras, Sometimes You Need to Bring Your Own Water

The guy from yesterday's CES rap is back, this time testing waterproof cameras… in a fishtank… on the CES show floor. Good news: they really are waterproof! If all CES coverage was this awesome, maybe I wouldn't hate CES so much. [Digitalcamerainfo.com]

Ask.com's Search Predictions are Comedy Gold

The folks over at Crave discovered that Ask.com's new search algorithm gives you some pretty questionable suggestions when you type in the beginning of questions. To answer your question, getting preggers in a hot tub all depends on how virile you are. Consider that a challenge. Another challenge: find the most ludicrous suggestion it gives and post it in the comments. [Ask.com via Crave]

I'm Apple and I'm Microsoft: British Comics Take on Gates and Jobs

A new sketch show from the BBC, Ruddy Hell! It's Harry and Paul, takes off Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. It rather makes Apple's current Mac vs PC ads look like outtakes from a Frasier episode. Given their pedigrees, Paul Whitehouse (he did The Fast Show and Harry Enfield (er, he didn't), the comics behind the skit, could have done better. Nice sweaters, though. – Ad Dugdale

Never mind that this video is in Dutch—be amazed at what the Sumsing Turbo 3000 Xi Multitask cellphone can do. It slices, it dices, it's a dessert topping and furniture polish. Not really. But we are especially fond of its self-destruct mode. – Charlie White More »
