With more and more coffee shops asking you to pay for WiFi, it’s getting annoying to open up your laptop and find the internet hidden behind a pay wall. That’s why I thought that WorkSnug was so cool. It finds WiFi connections for you using your iPhone and augmented reality.…

These strange cylinder-head Stormtrooper and Darth Vader are actually speakers, although they look more like lamps.  Either way, they’re butt-ugly.

I don’t know about you guys, but I really loved the Light Cycles in Tron. It was the best design of a new sort of motorcycle that we still haven’t seen on our roads. Sure, there are some really neat motorcycles in fiction, like the ones in Akira…,

VIP Kicker’s Premium Edition foosball table is handcrafted, adorned with over 18,000 Swarovski crystals. The foosmen, playing field…
