Microsoft to Release Pink Zune Tomorrow?

Zune-Online is reporting that the pink Zune is to be introduced to polite society tomorrow. That’s Friday the 13th. Now then, this could mean three things: one, that Microsoft has a, like, hulaaaaarious sense of humor; two, it’s utter bollocks and I should go back to my day job of sexing chickens; or three, that…

Connections: AT&T’s Vision of the Future (Part 3, 1993)

Today we have part 3 of the wonderfully paleo-futuristic video Connections: AT&T’s Vision of the Future. Being partial to past visions of virtual reality, this may be my favorite part of Connections. Whether it’s your favorite part or not, we still have plenty of this 1993 video to examine. See also:Connections: AT&T’s Vision of the…

19th-Century Vampire Slayer Kit Probably Kills 21st-Century Vamps Too

It’s unfortunate that the original auction page has been removed, because this handy vampire hunter kit put together by Ernst Blomberg provides everything you need to lay waste to unholy bloodsuckers, be they Nosferatu’s children or your neighbor’s five- year-old. This kit (which can fetch up to $12,000 at auction) has among other fun implements,…

Some CEO: Apple Mulling Subscription Service for iTunes

The CEO of Intent Media Works is telling CNNMoney that Apple is “is seriously considering a subscription offering” for iTunes based on what’s he heard in “meetings with people from Apple.” We’re skeptical. IMW is “a digital distribution system that works with peer-to-peer networks.” Why is Apple meeting with him? That aside, if he was…

Lisa’s Picture of 2076 (1976)

Young Lisa Gilvar of Happy Hollow School in Wayland, Massachusetts submitted this picture for the Tricentennial Report, published in 1977. Domed habitats in the sky seem pretty cool to me. I might go with a different color scheme for the poles, but hey, I’m no designer of the future. See also: The Tricentennial Report: Letters…

Motorola Action Figures by Eric So

The coolest thing Motorola’s done in awhile is push these Motorola action figures by Hong Kong artist Eric So. They’re of Chinese stars Jay Chou and Zhou Xun, and they’re holding the same phones that they come with, the Moto E6 and MOTOKRZR. You’ve likely guessed by now that these aren’t available in the US,…

Horse’s Head Sold Separately

Just when we thought we could get away with a really slick pairing of Nokia phone and tuxedo-clad silver-screen icon, the cellphone maker itself beats us to the punch. Now you can buy an Nokia N73 in tux-friendly black, with a 256MB miniSD card containing The Godfather. Yep, Coppola’s entire original 1972 film. According to…

Sony Demos 9mm-thick High-Def OLED Displays

Look and yearn folks. This here is Sony’s new OLED display. It’s an obscene 9mm thick yet it packs a 1080p resolution along with a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio. Just as a recap, OLED displays are thinner and brighter than their LCD counterparts and they suck up less power. Sony was showing this beaut off at…

Oregon Scientific Weather Hub Predicts the Weathery Future

This little device from the weather junkies at Oregon Scientific is like bringing a desktop widget to real life. It has two circular displays that will display the current temperature and the upcoming temperature. It does the magic future-predicting with an internal barometer. I wish it included Wi-Fi or something to more accurately predict the…

Sorry: Annoying MSNBC Ads

Hey, I know the ads have been crunking stuff up lately. Shit, I can’t even keep Gizmodo open in a browser without causing my keyboard to revert to 286 speeds. I had two plans to fix this. The first was to make fun of some basketball players of African American descent, so they’d pull the…

Wii Shortages Could Last Months Longer

The Nintendo Wii was released nearly six months ago, and still they’re impossible to find in stores. And, insanely enough, demand is still so high that these shortages could go on for a few more months.

This is Why You Shouldn’t Clean Your HDTV with Windex

We know spring is here and we know you wanna keep all your gadgets nice and shiny, but you see that dark, u-shaped streak running through the bottom of this DLP TV? That’s what happened when some poor schmo sprayed Windex (or any other cleaner) directly onto his flat-panel DLP. The liquid drips down to…

Giant Big Ben Blue LED Clock

We love our clocks around these parts and this is a good one. It’s giant, it’s digital and it’s blue, which is all you really need. The interesting fact is that the clock reads 4:20 in the product photo, which is commonly associated with an alternate hobby. I’ve personally never dabbled, but does this hobby…
