Blowing stuff up with Ultracapacitors - Video
We just want to want you that this video contains insanely nerdy stuff, but we highly recomend you stick through the whole thing because there are some really epic explosions around the 4:40 mark. Electricity is fun to play with and zapping dimes is mesmerizing, but this takes it to a whole new level of awesomeness.

Google Chrome for a Cause - Open tabs and donate to charity
Google has announced a super cool effort to encourage donations to charities around the world. They have released a Chrome extension that counts the amount of tabs you open during the day, and then allows you to donate your tabs to the charity of your choice. This is very cool, and we’re enthused that we’ve opened over 100 tabs so far! Start browsing, and leave a comment of your current tab count!

New WP7 Commercial - People falling on their faces at the airport
New WP7 Commercial - People falling on their faces at the airport
If anything, Microsoft really seems to be honing in on their initial “in, out and back to life” marketing scheme and pushing out some really decent ads — one of which is this little gem. By all means, it’s not a perfect commercial, but anyone will laugh at that last part where everyone falls on their face. Good work Microsoft!

The Best Social Network Icons we've seen so far
The Best Social Network Icons we've seen so far
When it comes to social media icons, this icon pack by Rogie may seem familiar, and after only a year these icons have been used by almost every website imaginable (including T3ch H3lp at one point). Now, it seems that Rogie has some serious competition with the new release of the complete collection of Tabs Icons which features some of the best looking icons we have ever seen!
The basic pack is free, and it comes with 32 general icons, but you can step up to a $5.95 version which comes with 34 social networking icons and there’s also a $29.95 pack that includes 170 icons in a resizeable vector PSD file. We think it’s worth the cash to add some eye-candy to your next project — Grab the icons here

UFO Chased on Highway with Helicopters
UFO Chased on Highway with Helicopters
Here is your dose of “tin foil” hat news — a UFO was spotted flying over a highway and naturally this guy grabbed his phone and started filming. He chases the UFO down the highway and then notices that some helicopters are chasing the UFO as well, and of course the UFO manages to get away. Very interesting, but scary at the same time…
