LEGO has been around for ages and probably ranks as one of the most used toys ever. I had stacks of the stuff which was pretty much all Technics type Lego as well as a few other things. We recently wrote about the LEGO PS2 memory card holder and now we show you the Lego ring and cufflinks. They each can be made to order with custom colour preferences. The ring has a Swarovski crystal in it too.

This video shows the incredible Millennium Falcon being built with LEGO using stop motion animation. It took 38 hours to build and as can be seen above, is very creative.

Lego USB Key
May 31, 2007 by Leave a Comment
Lego has been around for years. I would be surprised if I came across anybody who had not heard of it and used Lego when a child (or now if you are like me). The latest USB flash drive is made from a Lego brick with USB put inside it. It appears that if you have several you could build a wall of flash drives with them. They are available in a large range of colours and cost about $48 + shipping which seems a little steep. The novelty factor is what will win people over with this though as I still wouldnt mind owning one of these.

Skyfire for iPhone Waiting for Approval – Will Bring Flash to iPhone
September 2, 2010 by Leave a Comment
Skyfire is a browser that is capable of playing flash content on the iPhone. The way it works is that Skyfire has a cloud server which recognises content on a page is flash. The server then converts the flash to HTML 5 content on the fly (when the user wants to play flash content). The content is then streamed down to the user to view when needed.
When converting the content from Flash to HTML 5, the system is capable of compressing the file size making the content as small as 25% of the original size. [Read more…]
