Nikon Coolpix S1000pj

Nikon Coolpix S1000pj is a digital camera and pico projector in one! And everyone is going ape shit over it. The camera is 12 MP with 5x optical zoom and a 2.7" LCD screen. The projector performs quite well according to the videos.

Upgrade Your Legs

These "digitigrade leg extensions" are the work of Seattle-based sculptor Kim Graham. Essentially a fancy pair of stilts, the legs mimic digitigrades (animals including horses that bear weight on their toes). Half this video demonstrates how the legs look on a human. The other half demonstrates how they look on a furry satyr. [Gizmodo]

Senate Approves Delay of Digital TV Conversion

The US Senate has approved the recommendation by President Barack Obama to delay the conversion date of digital TV for four months. The original date of conversion was February 17, 2009. I guess this lady will have some more time to get the digital thing down.

I don't see too many people happy about this, and definitly not the folks over at PBS. They say, delaying the digital TV transition for four months would cost public broadcasters $22 million.

How so?: PBS stations will face additional power costs, and in some cases make new arrangements, for sending over-the-air TV signals after mid-February, she said. The switchover date was meant to end the analog, or over-the-air, television signals.
