If you are a coffee lover, you know that your day will not start off on the right side of the proverbial bed if you have yet to enjoy your favorite cuppa. Those who are willing to go further for a free cup of coffee can always check out this particular vending machine that is placed in Soho Square, London, by U.K. coffee company Kenco Millicano, where it shouts out orders at passers-by, asking them to act all weird and placing them in potentially embarrassing situations. Some were ordered to scream, others to hug the machine, and even dance around in a silly manner, before the Kenco Millicano vending machine actually sends forth its hot cup of coffee.
This is the creation of ad agency Leo Burnett, and it does offer a rather humorous insight into how ordinary folks react to a machine that is extremely demanding. Majority of the folks do seem to enjoy and embrace the experience as you can see from the video above. Now, this machine is not equipped with a super smart processor inside, but rather, has a voice actor to speak through the machine for that human touch. Definitely not the weirdest vending machine we have seen to date, though.

You would have thought that the British royalty that tends to maintain a stiff upper lip stance would have said something about this bit of news, but as at press time, there was nothing from them to deny the deletion of Prince Harry’s Facebook account which was operating under the alter ego, Spike Wells. This was done after it was alleged that photos of Prince Harry’s nude “strip pool” antics in Las Vegas appeared, courtesy of some rather timely advice from his private secretary, Jamie Lowther-Pinkerton. Should this be true, it makes sense, as the Palace would no doubt be concerned that additional distasteful photos might eventually make their way online that depict the young prince’s escapade with his mates on Sir Richard Branson’s private Necker Island where they stayed prior to visiting Las Vegas.
Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace was famous (or should I say, infamous) for the computer generated character known as Jar Jar Binks, although I found that sentiment on the ground tend to lean more on the negative side. Well, George Lucas is a true blue entrepreneur who is always on the lookout to earn more money (not that he needs it anyway), and hence decided to remaster Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace in 
Just like a doting parent, the folks over at NASA are fawning over the Curiosity Rover’s every single movement on the Red Planet after landing there earlier this month. Sure, we have seen its 
The final words of any person tend to bear the highest importance, especially when that particular person is aware of his or her impending passing. The thing is, death is no respecter of age, religion, creed or preparedness – it can come swiftly and suddenly, as evident in the recent derailed coal train incident in Maryland. Two friends who sent tweets just moments before their tragic passing could possibly be used by investigators as they try to piece together the course of events in order to solve the mystery.
In the event of a natural disaster like an earthquake or a flash flood, there has been cases of relief workers being stranded, excommunicated from the rest of the world in the process. Well, we all know that keeping a clear and open line of communications is ideal under such situations, but just in case the mobile phone networks fail, there is a backup idea that German researchers are willing to explore – through the harnessing of domestic Wi-Fi connections in order to create emergency mesh networks. Researchers from Darmstadt, Germany, intend to have crisis communication networks which are smart enough to ride “piggyback” on domestic wireless routers via Wi-Fi automatically, making it the ideal solution in densely populated urban areas.
You know the effects of beer goggles? Well, it is safe to assume that the 1980s audio icon from Sony, the Walkman, might have reached the end of the road for a fair number of years already, but that does not mean it no longer has any relevance in our society. No sir, in fact, fans of the Sony Walkman (which has since seen a mini resurgence in the form of a digital media player) will find the 
Just how many EF lenses do you think a company like Canon has produced to date? Well, we are looking at a milestone figure of 80 million having rolled off their production lines as of August 3, 2012. Just to pull some other figures out from our history books, the production of EF lenses passed the 10 million mark in 1995, where it took half a dozen years to double the amount to 20 million units. After that, another five years later in 2006, Canon arrived at the 30 million unit milestone before the 40 million mark knocked on Canon’s door in 2008.
