Robot Minivan travels over 9000 Miles
This has recently become one of the most repeated accomplishments — a car that drives itself — this one, however, is a bit different. This Minivan managed to travel over 9000 miles in real-world conditions with little help from the backup-driver. I am not sure whether human’s will be replaced by robots at the wheel, but it would be nice to have your car drive itself on the highway.

Wii Review - Donkey Kong Country Returns
Donkey Kong makes his triumphant return back the Donkey Kong Country series in the latest Retro Studios production. Man, how long has it been since we’ve all played a DK Country Game? Not since 1996, when Dixie and Kiddy Kong were the stars, huh? Yeah, it’s been too long. So does Returns stack up banana to banana with the original title that made DK the side-scrolling star we all know and love?

Gowalla now supports Facebook Places and Foursquare
It looks like Gowalla has taken a major shift in direction, and has added support for Facebook Places and Foursquare along with a new App that sports a great new design by Tim Van Damme, and a new (not so obvious) outlook on their service.
“Today you can now connect both your Facebook and Foursquare accounts in order to keep up with friends across multiple services. We’ve combined them all into a single, connected activity feed with all your friends, regardless of the service they checked in on.” — Gowalla

You can become invisible with a Kinect - Video
You can become invisible with a Kinect - Video
Probably the craziest thing you’ll see this week, this could be the best Kinect hack ever created. Basically it films the background while you are in the foreground and essentially turns you invisible on camera. Super cool, and absolutely a tribute to modders everywhere.

You can control robots with your tongue - Video
You can control robots with your tongue - Video
If anything, this is worthy of real development and funding — when you think of it, this would make it possible for people who cannot move at all, to move themselves around, and interact with the world around them. Truly amazing, and surly in our near future.
