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.

Steve Jobs shares his vision of the world with you -- (Video)
Steve Jobs shares his vision of the world with you -- (Video)
During my read of the Steve Jobs’ biography I’ve come to the not-so-surprising realization that Jobs always felt he was a pea out of the pod, a rebel, someone who deserved more attention than what was due to any one person, even when he was an unaccomplished teenager. And I think it’s that will-power, that belief that the world can be anything you want it to be, that garnered him the success he chased after for so long.

Google's billions in profit put into perspective -- (Infographic)
It’s a law of nature that we grow up being taught that Google is richer than any search engine company ever should be. We don’t question it. But have you ever wondered just exactly how much Google pockets each year, and how much of that comes from advertising and its other countless services? For the most part none of this info should come as a shock to anyone but it does give you some perspective into just how disgustingly, fithly rich Sergey and Larry are and also how much power they have running the big G we all depend on. — More after the break!

GamePro magazine and website set to shutdown next week, goodnight sweet prince
Long before the internet, gamefaqs, or message boards, there existed gaming publications that were essential to anyone who called themself an avid video game player. Back in the day the big boys on the block were EGM, Nintendo Power, and of course, GamePro. During the early to mid-90’s it was all about which kid on your street had a subscription you could borrow from or how much information you could soak into your brain during trips to the super market. Cheats, walkthroughs, and previews to the latest games were what made any self respecting kid a big shot amongst his friends. This hits personally to us, and it saddens us to hear that the fine folks at GamePro are closing up shop after more than 20 years in the business. — More after the break!

Seriously, we gotta give the BGH Quick Chef Music Case Microwave designers props on this historic concept.
