SlashGear JapanI don’t know anyone who can claim to be just “a Simpsons fan”, when it comes that family you’re either a fanatic or clueless. These two Simpsons themed USB toys are just the things to perk up your desk with the Springfield charm.

USB Toys – Homer Simpson Lamp and Hub
By Christina Crouch on Tuesday, Nov 27th 2007 No CommentsThe Only Gun Ok’d for Office Use – The Gun Shaped Computer Mouse
By Christina Crouch on Tuesday, Nov 27th 2007 No CommentsNo matter what your occupation, at some point you’re going to find yourself under some stress. It’s during those times that one might wish for this Gun-Shaped Computer Mouse. The mouse, which is a perfect replica of a Sig P230, offers a fun (and scary!) solution to work related problems. The trigger acts as a left click, while the right click can be found conveniently under your middle finger as you grip the gun. It’ll work both for right handed and left handed people which is a plus.
Computer Mouse Christmas Ornament
By Abby McVay on Monday, Nov 26th 2007 No Comments
Not every bit of geekery gets that sought after ‘geek chic’ title and somehow I don’t think this mouse is ever going to get it. There are a few bits of geeky Christmas ornaments that look great. This however, is a bit on cheesy side.
I fully admit that it is incredibly witty and I love anyone who finds a new way to reuse old gadgets. It might be a great thing if your third grade child made it. Then it would be a cherished item, but to actually sell it is a whole different ballgame.
Portable Voice Stress Analyzer lets you know whose pants are on fire
By Abby McVay on Wednesday, Nov 14th 2007 No CommentsOccasionally it seems like you’re surrounded by unreliable and completely untrustworthy people. If you’re feeling extra paranoid concerned you might need this handy gadget to decipher who you can trust and who is lying through their teeth.
Cre8txt IM slang translation keypad
By James Allan Brady on Tuesday, Nov 13th 2007 No CommentsDo you have someone in your family that just absolutely refuses to IM you using proper grammar, maybe even complete sentences? Are you sick of having to go to Urban Dictionary just to look up what the crap that hellion is talking about?
Well Cre8txt, a UK based company, has got a solution, you plug this remote looking thing into your computer and it will work its magic and do translations for you. It appears to work both ways, both converting their l33t sp3@k into common English and also offering you the option to speak their language, to an extent.
Lego Salt and Pepper Shakers allow you to play with your food
By Abby McVay on Friday, Nov 9th 2007 No CommentsAlright, so Lego Salt and Pepper Shakers are not exactly hi-tech, but they fit into that cool geeky nitch that I enjoy so much. These shakers are enough to turn even the most chic kitchen into a geek one.
The Beach Radio Headset
By Abby McVay on Wednesday, Nov 7th 2007 No CommentsAlright, so I’m aware it is no longer anywhere near summer and with every day that passes it gets colder and colder. However, this product cracks me up enough to write it up anyway. Plus as a side bonus I enjoy torturing others with thoughts of warm summer months that are long gone.
Move your desktop folders to the wall
By Abby McVay on Tuesday, Nov 6th 2007 5 CommentsWhy leave your desktop on your computer? If you like it that much, display it on your wall as well. Not only would you have the folders, but the labels and the pointer as well.
Control Your Man or Woman Remote Controls
By Abby McVay on Monday, Nov 5th 2007 No CommentsIf you’re having issues with your mate then you might need a bit of assistance. Instead of all that pricey counseling or even more pricey a divorce, snag a remote. Get rid of all that pesky free speech and get them doing your every wish.
Gun camera tests
By James Allan Brady on Wednesday, Oct 31st 2007 1 Comment
No, it’s not a camera that shoots bullets or a gun that shoots cameras, it’s a camera that mounts onto a gun that the Orange County Sheriff’s department is getting to test. Albeit no the most pleasing task carrying around a gun that will record every shot you make, it could expose how poor your accuracy is, or worse yet show the real serial killer you are.
I honestly don’t know what the purpose of this tech is on a day to day basis, unless they want to drive an office mad by making them watch their recent shooting victim slowly have the life leave their body. Other than that it will make YouTube a lot more interesting.
