Got so surprised when I came across this news about some Indian investor developed a touchscreen device which can let you browse the internet, read PDF files, do video conferencing, etc. Everything for less than Php 2000! If that isn’t cheap enough for you, they are trying to get the price lower to around Php 500-1000. A very cheap alternative from the now famous iPad!
A full house with only one bathroom? Install this in each bedroom! Why not! Quite practical isn’t it!
Holo just released an air mattress designed for preggies which has a hole in the middle to accommodate the future mom-to-be’s tummy. It can be used on water, outdoors or indoors. (more…)
Bill Gates’s Foundation is doing further studies regarding male contraception. Researchers discovered that doing ultrasound on a male’s testis can make a guy sterile temporarily. Apparently, ultrasound stops sperm production for around six months. Quite an interesting alternative from surgical procedures or hormonal treatments. Question is would men be interested in this, or would they prefer women to undergo a procedure or have the hormonal treatment?
In the middle east, many of the Al Qaeda suicide bombers are female. Intelligence reports revealed that they implant explosives inside their breasts similar to how breast implants are inserted- like breast augmentation.
Air clicking is the best way to describe the way you use this cellphone interface invented in Tokyo University. Just point to the screen without touching it, and the cursor will follow your finger, then air click! Very interesting, just do not know if it is practical.
Giant electronic companies Sony and Panasonic already announced that 3D TV’s will be available by early 2010. It is a huge jump from a black and white TV with a cabinet 2 decades ago. So exciting! Now, we can watch pur favorite IMAX movies at home. Can’t wait!
Except for those nursing mothers and working in the hospitals, who could claim that “diapers can save the world”. Apparently this is true in some extent because tests show that gels in diapers absorb radioactive contamination. Sorry for terrorists who plan to “dirty bomb” the planet. Bwahahahaha!
Tests have shown that gels in disposable diapers absorb 80-90% of radioactive toxins in marble tops. Absorption differs with different textures though…
