Need I say more? Captured in the aisles of Comic-Con 2010 by Reuters photog Mike Blake.

Need I say any more than the headline?

Meninos has released an updated version of the previously featured Photoshop magnets. No new functionality has been added. And there’s still no Windows version. Get a set of Photoshop CS4 Magnets at Meninos for only $25 (USD).

LEGO has just released an official iPhone App. Is it as cool as you think it will be? Maybe, maybe not. There’s just something about LEGOs that is completely timeless. Even though it’s been years since I used the bricks, I still love anything that’s connected to them.

So the guys over at Sony were kind enough to provide us with one of their nifty DSC-WX1 digital cameras so we could go out and shoot some cool panoramic pics – with the goal of putting some of these high-tech wonders in the hands of school kids.

If you know what to do when Andre3000 tells you to shake it like a Polaroid picture, then you’re probably well acquainted with the anachronistic instant cameras from as early as the late 40’s.

This collaboration between UK mixed-media artist Chrissie MacDonald and photographer Dominic Lee envisions what Tetris might look like on some newfangled 3-dimensional computing platform that uses physical blocks to let you play the classic Russian puzzler.

Mario, as seen on the streets of New York City (on 23rd st between 10th and 11th). I have a funny feeling that whatever is down at the other end of those pipes is a lot less pleasant than the bowels of the Mushroom Kingdom.

Spotted on the streets of Lyon, France, where artists Benoit Deseille and Benedetto Bufalino transformed an old phone booth into an aquarium – complete with fish. Unfortunately, all of the calls just sound like blurble-blurble-blurble.

Space Invaders Volkswagen spotted over on Flickr – I’m surprised they don’t drive a Saturn or a Mercury.
