When the Ouya was introduced this summer, nobody knew it would not only be well received by the gaming community but also ended its Kickstarter campaign with over $8m in funding. Many gamers believe in the little console that could and it looks as though the Ouya is finally making its way out to customers who backed their Kickstarter campaign.

The Ouya developer kits, which were expected to be shipped out tomorrow, should be in the hands of some lucky customers some time tomorrow as a number of people have taken to Twitter and Ouya’s forums to shout from the top of the Internet mountain to announce they’ll be one of the first to receive this potentially game-changing console.

If you’re one of the lucky few to have received confirmation your Ouya is one its way, feel free to let us know what your experience is like once you receive it in the comments section below. We’d love to hear what you think of it.

OK, so here’s a reason to rethink buying refurbished. Five-year-old Braydon Giles popped open a 3DS he just got for Christmas to find about nine photos of people, presumably the previous owners (or the previous owner’s parents?), having sex. Hoo-boy. More »

The end of 2012 may not have been Instagram’s most successful time with a week of its terms of services drama nearly ruining the company altogether. But users of Instagram had quite the adventurous year as the company reported this year’s most popular locations, with the top spot going to an unexpected location.

According to Instagram, its most popular location on its service is Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport with over 100,000 photos taken within the last year. The second most popular location seems to be another location in Bangkok called the Siam Paragon, which is one of the biggest shopping malls in Asia and approximately 30 minutes away from the airport. The third place spot is where we finally get into the U.S. as Disneyland Park in Anaheim, California is the third most popular location on Instagram.

The rest of the list is U.S. dominated, although France’s Eiffel Tower sneaks in between Los Angeles’ Dodger Stadium and Staples Center. We’re not entirely sure what that means, but we’re sure there’s some kind of conspiracy going on somewhere in there.

Here’s the full list of Instagram’s most popular locations of 2012:

• Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) ท่าอากาศยานสุวรรณภูมิ in Bangkok, Thailand
• Siam Paragon (สยามพารากอน) shopping mall in Bangkok, Thailand
• Disneyland Park in Anaheim, California
• Times Square in New York City
• AT&T Park in San Francisco
• Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)
• Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles
• Eiffel Tower in Paris
• Staples Center in Los Angeles
• Santa Monica Pier in Los Angeles

While most of us have converted to reading digital formats instead of traditional paper books, many of us still have a collection of reading material that deserves to be preserved in physical form – like classic comics, anime or art books. So if you have just a few books that need a home, what better place to keep them than in a Batman bookshelf?

These custom-made bookshelves from Fahmi Sani of Fiction Furniture are inspired by Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight series, with the sharp-edged Bat-symbol associated with those flicks. It’s the perfect thing for keeping reading materials in your Bat-cave.

And for those of you who can’t decide if you like the old or new Batman logo better, he’s got a schizophrenic version for you guys too. Though if a bat had lop-sided wings like this, it would probably only be able to fly in a circle – if it could fly at all:

They’re both available over on his Etsy shop for $267 Australian Dollars (~$284 USD).

With the final release of BlackBerry 10 coming up in a special event scheduled for the 30th of January, it’s no wonder we’re seeing a blast of interest in everything RIM – today’s leak being a set of slides showing BBM boosts and a new task manager. This set of slides shows that BlackBerry Messenger is set to be updated in a big way with both full-on video chat and screen sharing for all. Also on the docket is a fully upgraded task manager for those of you hoping to keep your tasks in order – notes and all.

This update shows the new task manager as an element entitled “BlackBerry Remember.” Here you’ll be able to sync with Outlook for email and work directly with Evernote right out of the box. This information has been shown in the slides here and now as well as in the original gold SDK provided by RIM quite recently.

With BBM you’ll soon be able to share much more intuitively, too. You’ll be able to capture a photo, tap one of your vast collection of apps to share outright – Picasa, Facebook, Flickr, and more veing shown right here in slide form, add comments, and share. You can share to one person or to your newly forge BBM Group if you wish. You’ll be able to “seamlessly” transfer between video chat and screen sharing as well – great for directions for businesses.

With BlackBerry Remember you’re going to be able to capture and keep clean all of your notes from all different directions. You can “turn ideas into action”, so say the leaked slides here, and sync with a variety of services. Microsoft Outlook is, of course, first on the list of connections, and Evernote has been tipped more than once as well.
