Weird gadget time! This USB-powered fan has LEDs on its blades that can display colorful patterns or one of more than 30 preset text messages. Why more than 30? I don’t know. What’s it called? The “USB 30+ Light Show Fan.”

Awwww. The fan’s packaging also provides some extra Engrish…

What does it take to be praised by modding magician Ben Heck? An all-out throwback to Metal Gear’s German counterpart, that’s what. Modder/ secret war plans stealer Sheyr got the Heckman’s nod for this sweet Wolfenstein PC case mod.

Awesome. If you ask me, it’s what a Fallout mod would…

You could… keep an actual toolbox around, with things like screwdrivers and hammers… or you could con your gadgets into performing double duty as home improvement devices. And sure, you may not want to pound nails with your iPhone, but I bet you have no objection to using your Wii

Here’s some old school security for high tech storage: combination locks for USB flash disks. They’re from Green House, the same company that gave us the Golf Mouse. There’s nothing weird about this product though. Weird.

It’s basically the same as its bigger brothers, the ones that secure bicycles, doors,…

It’s too bad that there’s no…

Imagine all the chicks you’ll attract when you walk down the street donning this awesome NES controller varsity jacket.

Adorned with a larger than life NES controller on the back and an (almost)  actual-size embroidered controller on the chest, you’ll be showing off your 8-bit fanaticism whether you’re coming or…

Heads up Trekkies: Cherry Keyboards are currently selling Klingon Keyboards. Yes, it has Klingon font as well as some English numbers. It’s perfect for, you know, if you suddenly find yourself in a chatroom with Worf.

If you’re not liking the inscription on the keys, don’t worry. That’s just a…

I’m starting to think that the only reason the PSP exists is because some Sony executive’s kid nagged him for a portable version of Monster Hunter…. Where the games at Sony? Even Famicom owners have it better than us! There are a busload of games for their console still

I’ve always wondered how Paper beats Rock. So what if it covers Rock? That’s not the same as being cut or crushed. Cafepress ups the confusion but in the process has created the Game of the Year, nay, the game of the 23rd century.

Paper disproves Spock. Disproves. Why the…
