A distinct sense of doom descended at the recently held Brickworld 2011. The faithful pilgrims of the colorful blocks could not shake the feeling of darkness, and from the backs of their heads they could sense that they were being watched, measured.

I’m a pretty forgetful person. When I print a document out, it’s only then that I realize that I’ve forgotten to type the date in the document that I’m about to staple together. Usually I just print the first page again, but if putting in the date affects the entire…

Pentax has a bunch of cameras under its belt and the company has trotted a new one out today that looks verty cool. If you like a camera with high quality photo capability and interchangeable lenses but you want the thing to be small, the new Pentax Q might be…

This wouldn’t be the first Space Invaders watch I’ve featured on the site. It’s not even the first rare Space Invaders… watch. But it is – for sure – the first one to cost $10,000. Actually, the guys over at Perpetuelle are just guessing at that price. It could be
