If you've got that special commenter that you can't get enough of, the first step in stalking them is setting up an RSS feed that will notify you as soon as they make a comment. It's super easy! All you have to do is navigate to that commenter's profile page, I'm sure you already have it bookmarked, and in the top right corner under Giz Login you'll see a RSS Feed button. Simply click the RSS feed button and your browser or default RSS reader should do the rest.

Unfortunately, the latter two are not part of the product lineup—but you can still spice up your space with two RSS lamp shades flanking a nice couch complete with OSX pillows. Now that's what I call good design. [Menios via ChipChick via Foolish Gadgets]

It looks like it'll be Japan only for now, but expect about a $400 price tag if it ever makes its way over here. I'm not even sure Mr. Spacely could drop that much on a picture frame, though. [Sanyo via Akihabara]

Starting today, TiVo users can subscribe to and watch a broad range of video content available through Real Simple Syndication ("RSS") feeds, including everything from network nightly newscasts and The Sesame Street Podcast to Daily Headlines from MTV News and College Humor from CHTV. The application also gives consumers access to niche interest and hobbyist videos covering areas far more specialized than cable and satellite channels.

The new Web video capability requires TiVo Desktop Plus 2.6, an update to the Windows application which also converts TV shows recorded on a TiVo DVR for viewing on portable devices including iPod and Sony PlayStation™ Portable. TiVo Desktop Plus 2.6 is available for a one-time fee of $24.95, and is a free upgrade to earlier versions. "TiVo continues to work with Roxio on delivering equivalent functionality on the Mac platform."

With this new feature, users can choose web videos downloaded on the home PC using web browsers, RSS video clients such as iTunes podcasts, or other video download software to automatically copy to their TiVo DVR's Now Playing List alongside recorded broadcast and cable TV shows. TiVo is also providing an on-screen guide of select Web video sources for users to browse and select as individual episodes or get a Season Pass™. Subscribers can even use the TiVo service's Season Pass functionality to get their own personal video folders on their PC, where they save their home movies and other video downloads. High Definition television enthusiasts will appreciate that TiVo preserves the original quality of high-resolution web videos, up to 720p, when delivered to TiVo Series3 or TiVo HD DVRs.

In English, that means if Ethiopia is mentioned 30 times, Kenya 20 and Colombia 50, your brew would be 30 percent Ethiopian, and so on. (You could, of course, fill the respective canisters with all the same bean to make a standard cup, but where's the fun in that?)

On top of flaunting the ever-popular steampunk look, it grinds the coffee fresh before it brews, so you don't need a separate grinder. The only downside is that it's drip—he told me he thought about French press, but the mechanics didn't work out. It still made a pretty damn good cup at the show, though. – Matt Buchanan

Later this year, Samsung will release 8- and 12-inch version of their new 800 x 480 pixel 7" photo frames. They don't only look like the lost son of an old Apple Cinema Display, but they are also Wi-Fi enabled and will automagically search for PCs with Vista, displaying photos, movies and MP3s stored on the PC via Windows Media Player 11. And images from the Internet, via RSS.

All photo frames come with a 4-in-1 memory card reader and a USB port for cameras and portable storage devices. At $305 for 7", I won't risk a divorce pointing it to the wrong image feed, but you can also try the non-Wi-Fi one, the SPH-72H, for $238. – Jesus Diaz

UPDATE: apparently, there was a mistake in the original report and these frames don't support MP3 or movie playback. Too bad, really.

We know about the "problem" and hopefully the house IT elves will get on the issue soon. Feel free to hit the comments if you are having issues. Aside from tearing us a new one, if you could be so kind as to list your OS and RSS reader of choice that would be fantastic. Because apparently all of your stuff is broken and we want you to know. – Mark Wilson

Given the open nature of the Chumby, it's trivial to load up a USB thumb drive full of MP3s and have a custom-made MP3 widget. It'll even play Divx (and presumably the more popular Xvid) files, though the screen's resolution is only 320x240.

Basically, Chumby has the possibility to be whatever your sordid little mind wants it to be, which is simultaneously frightening and wonderfully forward-looking. If all goes according to plan, it should be widely available for around $150 in March 2007. – Nicholas Deleon

On the multimedia front, the Z610i also tries to perform like a champ; never having used it, I can't say for sure one way or another. There's support for MP3, AAC, AAC+ and eAAC+ digital audio files and pictures taken using the aforementioned camera can be uploaded to a Photo Blog application ("this is when the cops showed up..."). Sony Ericsson graciously includes a 64MB Memory Stick Mico (M2), but users can plug in cards up to 1GB in size. She even reads RSS feeds.

The Sony Ericsson Z610i will be available in black, blue and pink when it ships later this quarter. – Nicholas Deleon
