C'mon Google, Really? Clown Porn?









This is a screenshot taken by god knows who, and as soon as this was leaked on the the internet, everyone went crazy and we're presuming Google has been issuing take downs of the screenshot, one in particular which was added to Imgur and then submitted to Digg, which un-surprisingly made it to the front page, and soon after received a take-down notice (most likely by Google) and is now gone.
Now, as expected, they keep popping up, including commenter's on that Digg post providing links to more images once the others are taken down. The real issue is how can we turn this into some sort of meme as quickly as possible -- a Google logo, Clown suits and hats, go nuts internet.

Image: Sonic the Hedgehog 4 has Plastic Grass


Anyone catch the trailer we posted up on Sonic 4? Well, if you did and had a sharp eye you'd notice a few things were off - namely the grass. Did Robotnik replace it with a roboticized artificial or something? You be the judge - See it HERE
Video: the Entire Twitter Development Cycle - Visualized
This is probably one of the neatest ways for any company to represent its "back-end" development, which a lot of us are not exposed to, even though we are versed in long nights bashing keyboards. The video portrays the avatars of the different Twitter developers and there are particles that float around and attach themselves to the visible developers. This means that that particular developer is working on that particle, which could represent a project based on HTML/CSS, Ruby or Java and once it starts floating around to other developers, I guess it means that there is some sort of collaboration between the two.
The Video and How it was made, after the break.
Dell Mini 5 application filed to the FCC




One of the most intriguing devices currently floating around cyberspace, is without a doubt the Dell Mini 5. The device was first heard about at CES 2010, however, information pertaining to the device (i.e. internals) was never revealed. Chatter was quiet for a while, until the guys from TechCrunch decided to raid CEO Michael Dell (once again, he gave nothing up). As it was clear that information pertaining to this device was going to remain quiet, many gave up hope; that is until now.
Way back in the confines of 2009, it was rumoured that this device would be manufactured by Qsida; well it appears that Engadget has some pretty solid intel; the device was recently filed with the FCC under Qsida's name. Above on the left is the label submitted today, filing a device called the Qsida M01M; on the right is a pictorial of a device in Shenzhen with the same name. Described by RF reports as a "mobile internet device" with support for WiFi, HSPA on WCDMA II and V (there the radios needed to support AT&T, Rogers, and Bell & Tellus) -- No word on any other radios, however, if this device wishes to come Down Under (specifically to me) a GSM radio is must.
iPhone 3.1.3. Firmware Makes Battery Life Worse?





Before I went through my recent iPhone firmware update, I wanted to see what new things I would gain from it. It said the usual -- bug fixes and stuff, but one that really caught my life was improved battery life. Sadly, after using it for a couple days I've found that it's made my battery life completely terrible; I sat in my class the other day and noticed that in less than 1 hour the battery percentage had dropped 10%, just while being in standby mode - 1 hour!
I wasn't sure if I was just imagining things or if my battery was really dying but it seems others on the Apple forums have noticed the same thing. Where's our fix Apple? My recommendation, DON'T UPGRADE just yet.
