The Hug shirt by Cute Circuit allows wearers to give and recieve hugs by connecting to their Java-enabled cellphone.

Now that’s something I need.

They have been nominated for a Time Best Invention of 2006 award.

During my stay in Indonesia, Ro and I went to TimeZone a couple of times to shoot up zombies and other baddies in House of the Dead 4 and Time Crisis 4.
Short of buying myself the whole game (does someone have a few k’s lying around that I could have?), there isn’t a whole lot I can do other than go down to the game arcade to get my fix.

Now the one thing I always thought was lacking on my Wii was exactly that, a gun thingie that’d allow me to shoot things. Like zombies. Or swarms!

Too bad the news had to come from the PS3 field.

Thanks Engadget… Now I’ve got a big longing for TC4 again.

PS: No, no one is allowed to comment about my DDR mat. Yes, it needs to be reinstalled on my new laptop. Yes, I have been to lazy to do it myself. *whine* Ro, can you do it for me? *kitty eyes*

PPS: Shut up, Curg… I don’t want to hear that I don’t know jack about consoles :P The Wii is my first console. PCs rule forever!

The combination of fatigue, ovulating (yes, I’m a female) and work are contributing to making me really REALLY tetchy and psycho. More than usual, I mean.

My mood feels like the weather. Just moments ago, the sky was falling, immensely heavy rain pounding relentlessly on the hapless mortals below it.
Now, it’s quite sunny.

I’m exhausted. Well and truly pooped.

Nabaztag, the ubiquitous wifi rabbit, has now branched off into Second Life, with an API hook to the real deal in your boring First Life.

Like most inventive things in SL, this particular gizmo is the creation of an inventive user who decided that his bunny would be better used doing other things than giving the weather and doing tai-chi.

Whenever an action is performed, the Nabaztag can inform the player of this and read out any messages that have been typed. Sounds pretty cool.

Second Life seems to have become the talk of the e-town, with articles being devoted to it in various women’s mag (I have read no less than 2 in the past month) and a bit of highlight due to various elections.
