    The Hubble Ultra Deep Field in 3D

    After my post about The Known Universe, I was sent this video, which is a 3D representation of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field photo.  Pretty awesome.  Thanks for the link ETL.

    Mass Effect 2 Release Day

    I’m super jazzed today, as it’s Mass Effect 2 release day!  Mass Effect was one of my top games of 2007, and I probably put more than 40 hours into it.  Read the novels… check.  Played the iPhone / iPod Touch game… check.  Read the new comic… check.  Pre-ordered the Mass Effect 2 Collector’s Edition……

    APPraisal: Mass Effect Galaxy

    I finally got around to playing Mass Effect Galaxy.  Although it’s been out since June of last year, I never got around to it.  But with the imminent release of Mass Effect 2 tomorrow on the PC and Xbox 360, I’ve been immersing myself in all things Mass Effect again, like reading the latest novel,…

    Weighted Companion Cube Case Mod

    Valve’s Portal was such a good game.  I was browsing the Case Mod Gallery over at techPowerUp! this weekend, and saw this recent mod by user zAAm.  Who doesn’t love their weighted companion cube?  *sniff*  Brings back memories…  You can make one out of paper, or out of gingerbread, or out of computer parts! Check…

    Jay Leno’s Choices

    I honestly don’t really care about the whole Jay Leno / Conan O’Brien debacle.  I don’t really watch either one, though I’ve obviously seen both hosts in their old and new shows.  In my opinion, NBC is the biggest culprit for creating the mess in the first place 6 years ago, and making idiotic decisions…

    Papercraft Friday #72: Spirit Tracks Link

    Something draws me towards the Link and Zelda papercrafts.  I don’t know why.  But Nintendo Papercraft recently posted a model of Link from The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, playing the Spirit Flute.  I’ve recently started playing that on the Nintendo DS, and it’s pretty good.  I’m gonna have to add this model to the…

    The Known Universe

    This is about a month old, but I saw it on the Astronomy Picture of the Day site today.  Pretty cool.  From the American Museum of Natural History.

    Get An Ad

    AdFreak.com has compiled links to videos of every “Get A Mac” ad ever aired in the U.S. since the campaign’s inception in 2006.  They haven’t aired a new one since October so this may well be the complete campaign.  Apple’s website has quite a few of these but not every single one. Even though Windows…

    Exaspirations: Serving Size

    According to the infallible source known as Wikipedia: Serving sizes on Nutrition Facts Labels are loosely based on the amount of a product normally eaten in one sitting or reference amounts, determined from nationwide food consumption surveys. I call Bullsh*t!
