Last week, I asked you to help BP out with Photoshopping their publicity photos, something they clearly were having a hard time with. And wow, you delivered a deluge of images, each one more embarrassing for BP than the last. More »
I feel like a castaway in a sea of glossy black plastic, chrome, and glowing blue buttons. Do we really need every piece of electronics to look the same, sandwiched in this shiny ebony that is the 21st Century beige? More »
What’s this, another way to capture for posterity the extremeness of our helmet-requiring pastimes? Yes indeed, a new player has entered the increasingly crowded POV/action/helmet camera market, the Drift Innovations HD170, offering 1080p recording in a durable case that stands poised to take on GoPro’s HD Hero and VHoldr’s ContourHD 1080p. However, the built-in color LCD here lets you do something you just can’t do on either of those two: check your footage on the camera itself. Does this make up for some of the cam’s other shortcomings? Read on to find out.

“There’s an awful lot of hoopla about that iPhone antenna.” Why yes, there is. And while there’s much to criticize about Apple’s response, we’re glad to see they’ve stopped pretending the problem doesn’t exist. More »
Dave Winer—the father of blogging and the RSS—has published this article on Apple’s current situation. His prediction: The Reality Distortion Field bubble is “about to burst” and Apple is going to suffer the ugliest shitstorm you’ve ever seen. More »
When we took Brammo’s Enertia motorcycle for a test ride last summer we found it to be a lovingly crafted and fun to ride bike that really only disappointed when it came to ultimate performance — far closer to your average scooter than your average sportbike. Since then the company has gone racing, taking on the iconic Isle of Man as part of the all-electric TTXGP and finishing third place with a top speed of 102mph. That fully-faired bike was called the TTR, and now the company is making a naked version for you: the 100mph Empulse. Read on for full details and a little video too.

It rarely occurs to me to defend my interest in recreating the sound of live music. I do it because I love to listen to beautiful sound. Is wanting great audio crazy? More »
Archos has been a player in the PMP market for a few centuries now (a rough estimate, anyway), and to say that the universe was jazzed at the mere thought of a 7-inch tablet for under $200 would be understating things dramatically. We found more things wrong with the Archos 7 Home Tablet than we could’ve ever imagined going in, but still, for under two C-notes, we have to believe that a few of you flipped on the blinders and made the purchase anyway. For those in that camp, we’re interesting to find how you feel about it now. Is the size right? Is the OS as impressive as you thought it would be? Are you longing for a larger display? Imagine you had the keys to Archos’ design lab and had the power to overhaul this bad boy, then have a sip of your favorite fruit juice and drop your thoughts in comments below. In that order, por favor.
