			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was surfing around the recesses of the Interweb today, digging under rocks to bring you fun new stuff from around the globe, when I stumbled upon something that just jumped out and beat me over the head. Nope, they&#8217;re not particularly gadget-y or game-y, but when I saw these goofy little organizer tabs, I was so enamored that I had to write about &#8216;em.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-4203 aligncenter" title="jstory_hello_tabs" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/jstory_hello_tabs.jpg" alt="" width="520" height="369" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Created by Korea&#8217;s <a href="http://jstory.co.kr/">J&#8217;Story</a>, these little removable tabs sit on the edge of your folders, documents or other papers, and help you keep organized.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4204" title="jstory_rabbit_tabs" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/jstory_rabbit_tabs.jpg" alt="" width="520" height="365" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The series includes a whimsical menagerie of characters including comical bears, rabbits, and little ninja dudes.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4205" title="jstory_tabs2" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/jstory_tabs2.jpg" alt="" width="520" height="520" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Aren&#8217;t they irresistable? As a matter of fact, I think they&#8217;re so cute I just might have to puke. The certainly beat those boring Post-It tabs that many of us have on our desks.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4206" title="jstory_face_tabs" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/jstory_face_tabs.jpg" alt="" width="520" height="359" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">You can find the whole family over from Korea&#8217;s <a href="http://dcx.co.kr/item/item_detail.asp?itemcd=000000055088">DCX</a> for 1700 to 2500 Korean Won per pack (between $1.50 and $2.25 USD). Now you&#8217;ve just got to figure out a way to get them shipped here from the other side of the planet.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every once in a while a company takes a stab at trying to <a href="http://technabob.com/blog/2006/11/03/pinball-reincarnated-in-digital-format/">resurrect pinball machines using modern technology</a>. The latest entry into the digital pinball genre replaces the old mechanical table with a large flat screen display and interchangeable digital games.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/virtual_pinball_tab2.jpg" alt="TAB Virtual Pinball" /></p>
<p>The system offers up the familiar top-down view and flipper controllers you&#8217;d find on a traditional pinball machine, but that&#8217;s about where the similarities end. Austria&#8217;s <a href="http://www.tab.at/tab/en/desktopdefault.aspx">TAB</a> has created the &#8220;Virtual Pinball&#8221; platform to offer arcades a cost-effective way to offer multiple games in a single cabinet. At the core of the system is a 42-inch touchscreen surface, along with a proprietary gaming platform which allows new tables to be easily downloaded.</p>

<p>Unlike some of the other pinball-specific systems out there, this one can also be used to play other action arcade games, so maybe it&#8217;ll be more popular. In addition to flipper inputs, the machine incorporates realistic tilt sensors which can be programmed to affect game play. Since the system offers IP connectivity, there&#8217;s even an online tournament play capability.</p>
<p>Personally, I&#8217;m not a big fan of digital pinball simulation, and would much rather play on an old mechanical machine any day of the week. But with the old pinball industry pretty much a fading memory, digital is about the only game in town.</p>
