When I saw this I had to rub my eyes twice as I thought how unbelievable even the thought of literally not getting off the couch would be like. It is all a part of the World’s Wackiest Racers Experience where you can watch various oddly created vehicles that have speed up to 95mph. This surreal double-decker leopard couch has the person sitting on the couch steering it while a person is below handling the peddling of this moving vehicle.  Apparently you can purchase a pass to be able to watch all these whacky drivers participate in driving unthinkable items like beds and office desks. It also suggests…

One of the biggest issues with transferring from a car to a bicycle (hence cleaner living) is the ability to transport your things or kids to and from where you need to go or be. Sure, traveling on a bicycle in summer weather is fine when all you need to do is show up, but truth is, we have a life we need to tow too. The trioBike mono is ideal for urban living while you run your errands and live your life, you can travel upon one of the world’s lightest cargo bikes. …

We assume what we see is how it is but as the old adage goes “not everything is as it appears”. I have often wondered how differently others see the world, since I cannot see outside of my own eyes even though I try and keep my mind open, I still cannot help but wonder at times if perhaps my perception is skewed. …

Created by Stan Lee for Marvel comics, Iron Man made his debut in Tales of Suspense in March of 1963, thus the year Iron Man fans were born. Under the armor lies a billionaire playboy, Tony Stark who is abducted and forced to build weapons of mass destruction. Instead, he builds himself a suit of armor in order to escape and eventually help save the world through Stark Industries. …

We know you haven’t completely gone to the darkside, well, perhaps while you are awake but our imaginations can get the best of us in our sleep and that means that our internal clocks cannot always be trusted. That is why when our minds travel to a galaxy far away, we need something to bring us back into the light, or at least wake us up in time for work. …

The folks at Team BlackSheep put together a “Christmas Special” video with their quadcopter and GoPro camera. While there are few details about the group, the equipment used, or whether or not the French police are investigating, it’s fun to watch as they land on a truck in traffic, hover close to the street with people taking pictures, and follow a French police car up until the point when they are apparently spotted. Then, they make their hasty retreat. Check it out: Here’s a separate video of a cool homemade quadcopter with a GoPro attached: Related articles ‘Team Black Sheep’ Troll French Police…

The original idea was a good one. With internet speeds improving and becoming more abundant, why carry around all of your data and the bulky hard drives necessary to maintain them? Why not store just about everything on the cloud and create machines that could be easily transported everywhere to do nearly everything that can be done by a desktop computer? That was what propelled Asus and other manufacturers to start the netbook revolution in 2007. Their Eee PC was a landmark development in the world of computing, bringing functionality and form to a compact computer that could fill most of our needs…

If you ever wonder what it would be like to see the world through the eyes of your cat or dog, you now can with the National Geographic camera that ties around the neck of your pet, like a collar, and allows you to see everything at their level. …

Flashback to the 80’s and 90’s when mixtapes were a sign of affection and the top 9 at 9 was time to sit and press record. Back then, music took a little more effort to retrieve than it does today and radio was exciting to listen to, especially if you had a boom box that had a record button on it. Music companies flourished in providing us with manual labored music, since every time you wanted to listen to a tune you had to hit rewind or fast forward; no such thing as repeat or shuffle. It is hard to imagine that it would be the last of the musical era to have to put effort into listening to music that you loved…

Yes we are aware that these are bookshelves which are meant for actual books, but many of us are now reading from tablets, smartphones and e-readers that although it would look great to have perhaps some of our old books hanging on the wall, it would be sort of a waste when we could use it to display our beloved DVD’s. …
