Amazon.com: Music Lover's review of Understanding Women: The Definitive Guide ...
WOW - I know the person this reviewer is describing! : "This book is only really of use if you'd like to date a self-involved, uneducated, fickle princess with a huge sense of entitlement. It's actually quite misogynist--which is all the more depressing since it's written by a woman. If you're more interested in a woman with a sense of real self-worth who isn't smitten by empty patriartchal gestures, look elsewhere. This book sets women back at least several decades."

TV-B-Gone-zilla! Rawr! - Hack a Day
How awful it would be to make a device that kept all the TV's off in your neighborhood. This would be like the radio transmitter idea I had a while ago: device takes over the radio station of cars next to you on the freeway and lets you talk to them in a one way conversation.

PhotoSketch: Photoshop + Image Recognition = Awesome
this is just pure awesome. you do a simple sketch of a pic and items included in the scene... this thing pulls down images from the internet, does alpha mapping and puts pics together for you. Just too cool.. The algorithms are just so nice. I want to learn about them.
