Revolights gives your bicycle Tron wheels, for safety of course - Video
Making your bike “safe” has never been a cool thing to do. I mean putting lights, reflectors and mirrors are good safety precautions, but they make you look like a bit of a tool. Enter Revolights, the lights that clip onto your wheels and essentially make you the maddest peddler in the city, while at the same time keeping you safe. Make sure to check out their webpage and help Revolights come to market!

The evolution of personal data storage since 1980 - Infographic
When the day came that we could store an entire library on a little disk, magic became a reality, I mean think about it for a second. We’re all storing enough information to fill an entire building, but it’s all crammed inside a little silver box, which we know as a hard drive — it’s incredible. This is an awesome infographic that shows us how data storage evolved from 1980 to the present day.

We warned you, and don’t email us anymore, all angry about posting the video that “ruined your day”. It’s your fault for clicking the link (even when we told you not to, by the way) and sitting through this horrific tragedy that will engrave itself in your heart and mind. If you want to be angry at someone, here’s the guy who put this poor camera in danger - our most sincere condolences.

Windows Phone OS created in HTML5, allows you to try before you buy
We all know how the retail world works when it comes to “trying out” a new smartphone. You want to see how it feels, and how it works, but more importantly the OS that runs on-top of it, but more than likely all you’ll get is a dumb plastic model with a fake screen, and if you’re lucky, you may have a select working model to play with in-store. Microsoft decided to throw caution to the wind and re-create their Windows Phone OS in HTML5 for people to try out before they buy.

This tiny printer is wonderful, but craps paper all over your house - (Video)
This tiny printer is wonderful, but craps paper all over your house - (Video)
When it comes to reading my morning news, social updates or reminders, all of those things are available on my smartphone. For years I have been doing this, but something still feels “right” about using paper, and pinning reminders by your desk. It feels good to touch the things that are important, and have physical copies instantly accessible. I wish I had this tiny little printer to print out things that matter to me, but it doesn’t seem reasonable. This is a sign that paper copies of things are beginning to become a luxury, and much like vinyl records are today, paper will be tomorrow.

Geek Tip: How to make leftover pizza taste (and look) incredible - Video
We have all done this before… we’ve ordered too much pizza and we just forget about it. The next day we wonder what we’re going to eat for lunch and remember about “that pizza we have somehwere”, so we throw it in the microwave to heat it up. This kills the pizza. Instead, you should try watching this video and discovering the beauty hidden within your leftover pizza.
