    You know what kinds of threats are legal, Mr. Nosowitz? The kind where I threaten to smother you with hugs and gummy bears.

    For the record, Brian Lam is just as bad as driving. But no when cares if a Toyota Avalon winds up wrapped around a lamppost.



    Also, Blam is smart enough to know how to threaten people within the bounds of the law.



    "Sure is a nice commenting account you got here. It'd be a shame if a BanHammer were to fall on it."



    He is from NJ after all.

    SO much history here on the tech blogs.



    The best reading has been here and over at Engadget over the years.



    GOOD TIMES, PEOPLE!

    Wired.com did a great article on this a while back. Its a good read for those unfamiliar with the story: http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/14.10/gizmondo.html

    It's funny, reading about this guy a few years back is what made me find Gizmodo (I mistyped Gizmondo into Google).



    Ah, memories.

    @deathshadow391: So lets have the article about the head of Gizmodo to show how the two are different. What type of Ferrari does he drive? Which county's mafia is he a part of? And what type of threats does he make? The people demand to know!

    @NurseDave:



    You demanded:



    Brian Lam, head of Gizmodo (the failed tech blog that couldn't even plagiarize the name of Gizmondo correctly), was sentenced to 1.5 years in prison for robbery, attempted blackmail and making illegal threats (which threats are legal?).



    Lam, whose story reaches Mark Sanford levels of ridiculous, is famous for crashing a rare Volkswagen, escaping at least one prison sentence, possibly having a movie made about him, leading some sort of mafia in the U.S.A in the 1990s and making a blog nobody ever wanted, ever. Referred to in his native English as "nerd Brian," because he's a nerd, Brian will serve 18 months in prison for his multitude of mafia and gadget-related crimes. Brian is a hilarious dirtbag the likes of which we rarely see in the tech world and he'll be missed, at least theoretically, maybe.





    I <3 Brian Lam and Gizmodo.

    I remember when sports car mods were exclusive to VHS rewinding devices. The field of stylistic technology sure has come a long way.

    For some reason, I both love and hate Ferraris. If I were to choose any Ferrari to drive, it'd be the 365 GTB

    Okay boys, there are only 497 left now because I decided I needed two - because the sweet sound of Ferrari goodness only works with their sweet touch next to each ear.


    Seriously, why? If you are driving around in a Ferrari and the person in the passenger seat interrupts the sound of that engine with as little as a burp I would be pissed.
