From Rekuru: They’re not so much watching you as making sure you’re keeping busy. New technology developed by the fun people over at KDDI have found a way to make your cell phone tell them if you’re goofing off at work. Which clearly can’t be good for those of us who do love our goofing time. More »

It has been reported that the collaboration song of Heartbreaker between G-Dragon and Flo-Rida will be released with G-Dragon’s live concert album, scheduled to be released the end of the month. This is an interesting collaboration, especially since Heartbreaker doesn’t seem like a song Flo-Rida would be a part of. More »

Japan sure has some of the weirdest and useless iPhone applications ever. Take this one for example called Japanese Smash Girls. It’s an app where you shake the phone to see girls smashing guitars. But don’t worry, these guitars were especially made for smashing. They’re called SMASH guitars. Did not know that such a thing existed. More »

This has got to be one of the weirdest things I’ve heard of (and I’ve heard of plenty of weird stuff). It seems that using sausage snacks as a stylus for your iPhone is a popular trend in Korea right now. Weird… More »

Teasers can be a very deceiving thing. When I first heard the preview for Big Bang’s new Lollipop 2 promotional song, I thought that it was kind of trite. The full version just recently hit, and I guess I’m now eating my own words (or a lollipop); the song is not all that bad. More »

From Wirebot:

As many of you probably know, yesterday marked the start of an epic phase in the gaming world. Blizzard finally launched its Beta phase for the new Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty game. After having messed with the original Starcraft for THE LONGEST TIME (you know how long it’s been, with those outdated graphics and semi-awkward gameplay), having the chance to finally unveil this new horizon has been nothing but A+ for me so far.

From Ziggytek: Hey to all you lonely geeks out there! I was assigned the “Top 10 Most Eligible Geek Bachelorettes” topic. You’re all in luck, as I have great taste in women (questionable…). Let’s begin (Asian bias? A little…)! More »

From Rekuru: Is Purikura too ‘tame’ for you? Has the thrill of drawing strawberries and fireworks all over your friends worn off? Well then you might want to give Videkura a try. More »

From Rekuru: The biggest downside to have a great cat or dog is that you’re going to outlive it. I know. Super sad. Well leave it to Japan to start selling an Anti-Ageing Chamber for pets. Just look at the pictures. Does it not freak you out a bit? More »
