ThinkGeek :: Stuff for Smart Masses

Look up into the sky. Great grey hulking ships are slowly marching out of the sky, inexorably descending towards the surface of our world. All that stands in the way is a lone mobile artillery unit, and a few well-placed barriers. Wave after wave of ships fall. Menacingly slowly at first, but as more are blasted out of the sky, the faster they come. So low, in fact, that even the floating barriers are ground into dust by the descending ships. It’s times like these that make heroes, and what does a good hero do in this situation? Run! Just make sure you’ve packed a decent emergency kit, but whatever you do, don’t pack it in some awful nylon messenger bag. Grab this wonderful vinyl messenger bag that just so happens to have an 8-Bit pixellated representation of the very invaders about to destroy you. See, we figure, if you’re captured, you might be able to pass yourself off as a fan, or something. Hey, it’s worth a shot, right?

“Timmy’s always wanted to be a Starfleet captain. In fact, when he answers his Skype account, his first words are “”On screen.”" He’s even been insisting we build him a proper captain’s chair in his office, facing the largest monitor we could possibly find. (He’s also demanding red shirt monkeys that he can send on missions to the grocery store to feed his banana habit. The problem is that the grocery store is across the street, and monkeys are terrible jaywalkers. We fear many of them will never return.) When you’re contacting Starfleet, you’d best be doing it with the proper equipment! You may not have a captain’s chair or a huge display screen, but you can transmit your best Captain Kirk smile across the internet via our U.S.S. Enterprise webcam. It clips to your monitor via a spiffy Original Series com badge and the gooseneck mount allows you to position the starship at the optimal angle for your video needs. Best of all, it’s plug and play with no driver installation required!”

Climbing out of your hypersleep pod in orbit around a distant jungle-moon can be a stressful experience. You’ve lost muscle-mass, you’re likely dehydrated and hungry, and six years have gone by. What’s your first priority? Grabbing a Marlboro and enjoying your first cigarette of the decade? Nope. Maybe you’re simply dying for a Big Mac. Sorry. Ooh – maybe you’d like to pull up the news archives and see who won the last half-dozen World Cup matches? Hardly. Your first priority is to pull out your webcam and start vlogging. Hey, it’s the future – they have different priorities. You know what else is different in the future? There’s no such thing as a 2D computer interface – every computer not only has a 3D display, the displays themselves wrap themselves completely around your chair like some ridiculous digital taco-salad. Now that 3D has become the norm, webcams had to make the leap to 3D too. The Minoru 3D Webcam has two cameras that take two video feeds in a slightly offset parallax, and combines them into a red/blue anaglyph that is backwards compatible to the 2D displays of today. Slip on a pair of 3D glasses, several of which are included with the camera, and see everything your camera sees in spectacular 3D. Use it as a regular webcam and upload to YouTube in 3D! Send a pair of glasses to your family members and cam with them over Windows Live Messenger or Skype! Make video archives of your family, pets, even take it outside with your laptop and take full-motion 3D video of the world! Back on that distant world, you’ve finished your 3D vlog. Now you can venture outside and interact with the giant blue indigenous peoples. Just keep both eyes open.

The big refrigerator in your office cools a lot of stuff. Food, science experiments once known as food, and your secret stash…of drinks. Of drinks! But what happens when you just want one can at your desk and you want it cold? Well, plug in this small single-can beverage cooler into a USB port and chill a can on your desk. Then you won’t have to get up to get your drink. The LED Beverage Cooler is retro styled and has a small blue LED inside. The LED helps your drink stay cool by tricking it to think the air inside the cooler is from the Arctic, because everyone knows that blue lights make you feel cold. So add a little style to your desk and keep your drink cold at the same time. Chill, dude.

“That MP3 player you got for Christmas is awesome, but when you hit the play button, nothing comes out. Why? It doesn’t have a speaker, that’s why! Manufacturers cram so much into those tiny gadgets, any speaker that would fit in there would, frankly, sound like crap. Our simian sound scientists are smart monkeys. They figured out a way to create rich deep bass in a speaker no bigger than a hens egg! When we asked them how it’s done, they just glared at us with those dark great-ape eyes and told us it was one of those trade-secret things. Weird. The sound is incredible! Rich and loud and strong, this little speaker surprises everyone with how big it sounds. It’s portable and rechargeable via USB, so you can take it anywhere you might need a big boost of sound. Just pop open the capsule and extend the speaker – this opens the resonance chamber, increasing the bass response even higher. Plus, at a full-charge, it can run for nearly 8 hours! It’s electric awesome in the palm of your hand. “”I highly recommend the X-mini iHome Capsule Speaker from @thinkgeek. It’s a tiny sound enhancer that looks like a Cybertron hamburger.”" – @doctorfailure on Twitter”
