Google became our hero once again when they embedded a playable version of Pac-Man on their homepage. Workplace productivity went way, way, way down as employees popped in their earbuds to secretly wakka-wakka-wakka their hearts out. Oooh! And if you clicked Insert Coin twice, you got Ms. Pac-Man as Player 2, so you could put a friend on WASD duty or try to run both yourself. Totally sweet. If you missed it, check it out. Various Pac-Man elements from over the years fill a large yellow Pac-Man on a black babydoll (fitted) t-shirt.

“Normally this is the space where we would make some clever jokes and tell you why you might like to purchase this fine product. But in the case of this amazing GP2X Wiz pocket size gaming system we’re cutting straight to the chase. If you are into retro gaming and have paid your rent this month you NEED to buy the GP2X Wiz now… like immediately… we’re not joking. Because no where else will you find a handheld gaming system with emulators for so many game systems, computer platforms and consoles. Incredible MAME emulation allows you to run all your favorite arcade video game classics, even vector games. Amiga game emulation is rock solid. You can run Atari ST games, Commodore 64, NES, SNES, Gameboy, Gameboy Advance, NeoGeo, Flash Games and more too numerous to mention. Of course you’ll need to find yourself some game roms… but we have a feeling that’s no problem for you and Google. The Wiz can do a host of other useful things besides gaming. It can play video files including MPEG4, Xvid and DIVX. You get a built in e-book reader, calendar, voice recorder… etc… you know the drill. 1GB of storage is built-in and you can expand on this with the SD (SDHC) card slot. The high-res touchscreen makes navigation easy and the gaming controls feature a d-pad on the left with buttons/d-pad on the right and two shoulder buttons on the top. It’s plenty good for anything a retro game can dish out. There is an active development community for the GP2X Wiz and with a respectable ARM9 533MHz Processor overclockable to 800Mhz you’ve got plenty of power to play with if you’re interested to write your own applications. Important Note The Wiz does not come with any emulator software or game roms pre-installed. Out of the box you can play some built in Flash games, but that’s it. You’ll need to download the freeware emulator for the console or computer system you want to emulate. Then you’ll need to unzip the emulator software, and copy it to an SD card along with some game roms you’ve downloaded. Then start-up the Wiz, go into the “”launcher”" option and run the emulator. Inside the emulator you’ll choose the rom you want to load and then the game can begin. Each emulator software interface is a bit different and most give you the option to overclock the Wiz to get the best performance. Remember you are running emulator software… most games work perfectly, but some may run slow or be glitchy. You may have to configure the controls to work well with the game you want to play. Documentation is not always the best, so you might need to put in a bit of effort to figure things out. If any of this scares you, then you may want to reconsider your purchase. Here is a great site where you can download all the emulators available for the Wiz as well as other homebrew software. Please take a look at this before you buy. http://dl.openhandhelds.org/cgi-bin/wiz.cgi”

“One of the main characters of Firefly is Serenity herself, with all her quirks and surprises. Here are a couple of facts you might not have considered before. The ship could fit on a football field, hanging over the sidelines 5 ft. each way, which probably wouldn’t even knock over the Gatorade cooler. The cargo capacity is 164,900 pounds, which is just over 7000 black-market beagles. Also, we would like to point out that we think it’s really cool that Google has astronomical units to lightyears as one of their default conversions from the search box. This shirt features Serenity against a sunburst and a field of stars on a babydoll (fitted) black t-shirt, along with the four Chinese characters which represent the phrase “”Never Give Up”" down the right side. Note: This product runs larger than our normal babydolls. Please reference the table below to choose your size. S M L XL XXL Chest 36 in. 40 in. 44 in. 48 in. 52 in. Length 25 in. 26 in. 27 in. 28 in. 29 in.”

“The date is 1974. The place? Budapest, Hungary. Erno Rubik, a passionate lecturer and admirer of geometry and 3D forms creates the world’s most addictive and perfect puzzle – the Rubik’s cube. It’s now thirty years later and it’s still the best selling puzzle in the Universe. If you grew up when the Rubik’s cube made it’s debut – you probably remember that every kid had one. Whether it was the full size or the keychain version they were as common in school as cell phones and GBAs are these days. Elementary school kids could be seen solving them with their feet on ‘That’s Incredible!’ and conspiracists believed the puzzle was an Eastern block tactic to distract American youth from their educations. In 1980 Cubaholics Anonymous was formally established. The eighties simply enjoyed RubikMania! Here we are in the 21st century and it’s still just as addictive as it was thirty years ago. Think you can solve it? Think you have what it takes to beat the reigning world record for solving the Rubik’s cube? The first world champion was an American high school student who took the Budapest World Championship in 1982 by solving the puzzle in just 22.95 seconds! The latest 2003 winner was Dan Knights of San Francisco who used the ‘Fridrich’ system to beat the cube in just 20 seconds. Best of luck if you choose to delve into the realm of competitive speedcubing- you’re gonna need it! How complex can it really be ThinkGeek? There are 43 quintillion possible combinations with your Rubik’s cube. That’s 43 million million millions. There are about 30 million seconds in a year. You would need over a thousand million years assuming you could look at a thousand patterns every second just to see all the possible combinations. So if you are interested, we recommend you get started now and hope that cryonics becomes true science. Ages 8 and up Dimensions: 3″” cubed Comes complete with a hint and game suggestion book If you really want, you can easily find solutions on Google and Youtube”

“Just rotate the center to the cable you need If you’re a member of the IT crowd, it’s sometimes hard to explain to your management why you need things. Especially if they’re the type of people who think the internet is a black box with a red LED on top or people who believe that if you type “”Google”" into Google you’ll break the internet. Try explaining to them that every time you need a patch cable that you have to dig through the giant box of everything cable-shaped for an eternity before finding the right one. To them, all cables are the same. So here’s what you’re going to say… ready? “”Hey, last time I had to find a patch cable, it cost you $50 worth of my time. Buy me one of these and I’ll never have to waste that time again.”" They don’t need to know that the Universal Network Cable adapter allows you to change wiring standard with just a click. They won’t care about going from straight through to crossover. Their eyes will glaze over when you mention Cisco or T1 or DDS. Just tell them that the Universal Network Cable is THE essential tool for the IT crowd, and that you’ll save them tons of wasted man/grrl hours a year. (Don’t tell them that you’ll spend those newly-found hours playing World of Warcraft. Bad idea.)”
