Public Bikes To Power City Lights
Normally I try to avoid posting on concepts mainly because they rarely materialize into real world products, no matter how much we wish they would. But this following concept isn’t just a great idea, it has great potential as well. In a nutshell, designer Chiyu Chen envisions a fleet of publicly available hybrid bicycles that passively harvest the kinetic energy of braking (definitely unlike that generator-light that doubles the power needed to turn the damn pedal). When a bike is returned to a station ...
The Power Pump from Orange
When it comes to protecting Mother Earth, we take a fair share of our energy from the sphere in the sky. While that’s all well and good, there are certain circumstance where standing in the sun for hours or leaving you gadgets out in direct sunlight just isn’t feasible. Enter the Power Pump from Orange.

A next Metal Gear is iPhone bound?
Earlier in the week Konami launched a teaser site that read “A Next Metal Gear is…” below the above image. Speculation was abound with the green font and the power-logo that for some seemed to scream Xbox 360. Others suggested that the exclamation mark indicated a new Metal Gear Ac!d was in the works, which is the portable brand of the popular series.

There are few things incumbent upon the media to report. Large disasters. Paris Hilton. The Large Hadron Collider (though that one may fall under the first category). And ‘Net Neutrality’. So when the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission makes an open call for suggestions on how or if the internet should be policed, it’s important we give a listen and voice the opinions of those that would shape the medium. So when Quebecor Media (an ISP, among other things) said there are no reasonable grounds “to support regulation ...
