If only my intelligent vehicle had one more cup holder
July 17th, 2009
Until now I had to put my power inverter on the floor of my car. Now, thanks to brilliance, I can put the above device in my cup holder and have two AC power outlets plus a USB charger available. Now I just have to choose between that second cup of coffee and the power inverter.
Available here.

This week’s question is much nerdier:
How many characters of data did it take to render the following image.

Dicey
May 28th, 2009If you’re into games with dice (and who isn’t?), you will probably shake your head in amazement as much as I did at this dice roll generator.
