Rob Spence is a Canadian filmmaker who was left partially blind in his right eye after a shooting accident. Spence later decided to replace his damaged eye with an electronic eye that contains a battery-powered wireless video camera. He can record everything he sees just by looking around. Spence, who has dubbed himself Eyeborg, will soon allow people to log on to his video feed and view the world through his bionic eye camera.

Trading card company Topps is adding something a little more high-tech than a stick of gum to their sports cards in an attempt to bring them to life. Their enhanced 2009 card collection is available with augmented reality, which sounds pretty cool. When viewed through a computer camera, the card displays an interactive 3D animation of the player that rotates, moves with the card and can be interacted with by the user.

We limit the combined total dollar amount of item-labeled produce that any single grower can sell under our two item labels to less than $1 Million US dollars annually. This is our small effort to even the playing field between larger and smaller farms. Research shows that larger farms, particularly those with annual revenues in excess of $1 Million per year have a significant competitive advantage as compared to small family farms. Top 10 Produce LLC will invite socially conscious consumers to play a role by alerting the consumer that our brand provides a strategic advantage in favor of smaller farms, and by reminding buyers that we only license independent growers. 100% of our items have a transparency enabling barcode.
This item level barcode will be scanned by mobile phones to tell the consumer about the farmer, whether the produce is locally grown (including a map showing the location of the farm as compared to their current location based on their cell phone's GPS ), and anything else the consumer is interested to know about that produce item. Consumer reviews of fresh produce will be available to shoppers and chefs alike.
Suggestions are encouraged and welcome, so please share thoughts, concerns, criticisms and questions. We are listening carefully.We limit the combined total dollar amount of item-labeled produce that any single... more

"The other day, I went on a short tour of some of Microsoft’s Labs, where they do everything from rapid prototypes of new products to acoustic testing in anechoic chambers. Most of my time was spent in the Applied Sciences group’s labs, where they are working on some seriously interesting devices. And they’re not just into mice; in fact, the lab’s specialty seemed to be anything to do with optics and/or input. This lab worked on Project Natal, and also on the pressure-sensitive keyboard I wrote about a while back.
They were kind enough to show me all these crazy multi-touch mice, and, when I was too inept to demo even one of them solo, offered to go through them with me on video. Remember that none of these devices are final in any way! The side mouse, for instance, would be much smaller if it were a product, and these weren’t really sculpted at all to fit in your hand."

The future of Internet radio appears more secure after a handful of online stations reached an agreement Tuesday to head off a potentially crippling increase in copyright royalty rates.
The deal is the product of two years of negotiations between webcasters and copyright holders. In March 2007, a ruling by the federal Copyright Royalty Board dramatically raised the rates that Internet radio stations must pay artists and recording labels _ leading many online radio stations to warn that the new rates would put them out of business by eating up as much as 70 percent of revenue.The future of Internet radio appears more secure after a handful of online stations... more

Now that Apple's (AAPL) iPhone 3.0 software includes parental controls, the iPhone App Store is selling what could be its first app with topless and "completely naked" pictures there on purpose.
Update: The app is no longer available. Presumably, Apple removed it. Not sure if this is a one-off, or if Apple is still anti-nudity.
Earlier: Now that Apple's (AAPL) iPhone 3.0 software includes parental controls, the iPhone App Store is selling what could be its first app with topless and "completely naked" pictures there on purpose.
It's called "Hottest Girls," and it's $1.99. It'll be interesting to see how far Apple goes with this -- or if it pulls the plug on moral grounds. No doubt developers could figure out some nifty and brisk-selling apps -- including motion-sensor controls, etc. -- if they used their imagination.Now that Apple's (AAPL) iPhone 3.0 software includes parental controls, the... more

A disgruntled artist (or maybe an international coalition) has set up a clone Pirate Bay site selling anti-Pirate Bay T-shirts. While it looks like The Pirate Bay, the site is much less useful than the original and doesn’t have any torrents. What it does have though, is a sense of fun, humor and irony - all topped off with a truckload of fail.A disgruntled artist (or maybe an international coalition) has set up a clone Pirate... more
