This is super-duper badass:
It’s a web-based program that turns rough, hand drawn sketches into photoshop style image composites like those shown here:

A second robbery in a span of less than five months was accomplished at the Sagemore Apple Store in Marlton, New Jersey.
Five men savvy enough to wear face masks attacked by smashing the glass in front of the store a little after 2am of September 3. The break-in was so well orchestrated that you can [...]
I love TED talks. Whenever I watch one of their lectures, I always feel enlightened (and ask myself why my college professors couldn’t all be as interesting). This particular one, however, really struck a chord with me.
This particular talk is a demonstration of a water filter that catches pretty much everything, including viruses. The [...]
By now, we’re all pretty familiar with how digital music works: People get sued, content gets deleted, and start-ups go bankrupt. Not a pleasant story.
But YouTube’s new ContentID program is changing the landscape. The software was originally designed to identify copycats to make it easier for copyright holders to identify and order takedowns, but in [...]
You know how it is getting into a tight parking space. Pull up parallel to the car in front of you, signal in, turn and back into the spot and even out. But that’s almost never how it goes. For the less experienced, parallel parking means backing in and out, in and out, in and [...]
The Tokyo fire department has a good few more challenges than does your typical department. In addition to rescuing kittens stuck in trees and, oh, putting out fires, they have to deal with earthquakes and mudslides on a regular basis. And in the mecca of all things hi-tech, it’s no surprise that they’re beginning to [...]
Kuroshio Sea in Okinawa, Japan is the world’s second largest aquarium, holding nearly 2 million gallons of water, large enough to accommodate sharks and manta rays. This video is just a steady shot of the aquarium and the fish swimming around inside, taken by a Canon 5D Mark II by Jon Rawlinson.
There’s a very serene [...]
This viral commercial promoting HP Workstation printers is pretty cool. It reminds me of the times when sometimes my mom needed 200 copies of something – a decent amount, but not necessarily worth a trip to the printing store. So we hooked up the three printers in our house (all identical HP OfficeJets) to the [...]
A musical touch-sensitive light-up hoodie, created using the LilyPad Arduino, which is designed by Leah Buechley. Created at the MIT Media Lab for the High-Low Tech research group.
This hoodie is a prototype project for the Lilypad Arduino, meant to inspire other applications. The hoodie was designed with purely artistic intentions and with absolutely no practical [...]
This is one of the crazier videos I’ve seen. Want to stand under a giant Tesla coil? Make sure you’re securely inside a metal cage and you’re good to go. What keeps you safe is the Faraday cage you’re in – the electric charge from the lightning passes safely around your body and back into [...]
