HydroBOB, Underwater Scooter

Other cool things i want to try!


Scuba diving and jet skiing are both super fun things to do in the water, so why not roll both activities into one? That's the idea behind the HydroBOB, an underwater scooter that's supposedly easy to ride without requiring scuba diving skills.

Rather than wearing a mask with a breathing regulator, the HydroBOB has a big bubble of air just like a diving bell, so you can breathe naturally. To get on, you simply duck your head under the water, and stick it up into the bell.

That all looks like tons of fun, but there's catch. Currently, you can't buy your own HydroBOB, but you can rent one at the Aquadome in Ft Lauderdale Florida. A $25 one hour package gives you a few minutes instruction and some time with the HydroBOB in the water.

The other bummer is that it looks like you're only going to be in a swimming pool, so you can forget those images of you zooming around underwater like James Bond, fighting off stingrays and sharks with your bare hands.

Some Google Doodles :p


On Friday, 21 May 2010, on the 30th anniversary of the arcade game Pac-Man, Google unveiled worldwide their first interactive logo. Anyone who visited Google could play Pac-Man on the logo, which featured the letters of the word 'Google' on the Pac-Man maze. The logo also mimicked the sounds the original arcade game made. The "I'm Feeling Lucky" button was replaced with an "Insert Coin" button. Pressing this once enabled you to play the Pac-Man logo. Pressing it once more added a second player, Ms. Pac-Man, enabling 2 players to play at once, controlled using the W,A,S,D keys, instead of the arrows as used by Player 1. Pressing it for a third time performed an "I'm Feeling Lucky" search. It was then removed on Sunday, May 23, 2010, initially replacing Pac-Man with the normal logo. Later on that day, Google released a permanent Google Pac-Man site, due to the popular user demand for the playable logo.




Five blue dots, three red dots, three yellow dots, four blue, three green and two red: yes, it's Google spelled out in Braille. This was issued on 4 January 2006, in celebration of the 197th birthday of Louis Braille, who invented the embossed-point alphabet for blind and visually impaired people.





Google's August 29th logo celebrated Michael Jackson's birthday a couple of months after his death. The two Os in Google were replaced with two feet, en pointe, wearing patent leather shoes and shiny white socks below slightly-too-short trousers.





20th anniversary of the Wallace and Gromit Characters.





On March 2010, the Pi Day, 3.14 was celebrated by math nerds and Google, worldwide. Having been conspicuously missing from Google's ever-growing repertoire of special-event doodles for years, Google finally relented and unleashed its inner nerd, not that it tried to hide it too hard in the past. And, perhaps to make up for all the years it skipped, Google went all out this time and showed off six common uses of the famous number. The Pi Day Google logo starts off with the formula everyone knows (?) for the area of a circle A = πr2, but goes on with some more advanced stuff. The two 'os' in Google are used to represent the sin(x) function over a 2π period.





Google unveiled this logo to celebrate the 400th anniversary since Galileo Galilei, the Italian astronomer, showed Venetian merchants his new creation, a telescope.





This doodle that appeared online in Sept 2010 was meant to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Flintstones.

Cute Alarm Clocks

Having trouble waking up in the morning? Ehehehe me too!
So let me give you some cool alarm clocks which can make sure you to waking up in the morning!

1.Bacon Alarm Clock

Do you think a nice breakfast is a good reason to wake up early? Then the Wake n' Bacon might be the right one for you. It wakes you up with the tempting aroma of bacon browning in the oven, just like the ones mom makes on Sunday mornings. Just remember to place a frozen strip of bacon inside the night before and the next morning, 10 minutes before the desired waking time, the cooking process will start. Once the alarm goes off, you'll hear the alarm sound and not only you'll wake up but you'll have your breakfast ready!

2.Danger-Bomb Alarm Clock

Do you like action? Well, with the Japanese "DANGERBOMB" clock, you'll feel like James Bond since you wake up. The annoying sound of this alarm will only stop if you connect the blue, red and yellow wires in the correct order. If you fail your mission, get ready to a fake -and even more annoying- audible explosion.

3.Smashing Alarm Clock

If you need some kind of early angry management exercise, try the ‘Smash' alarm clock. This original device's top surface was specially designed to receive a punch every morning. Actually, that is the only way to turn the alarm off. Hmmm, very useful... just try to have good aim!

4.Carpet Alarm Clock

Stand up to wake up! The Carpet Alarm Clock force you to physically get up and step on it in order to turn it off. Of course, since it is technically a clock, it has a LCD screen to indicate the time.

5.Darth Vader Alarm Clock

The Darth Vader Alarm Clock is the right one for Star Wars fans. Not only looks cool but it has different functions. It displays the time in his eyes, it has AM/FM radio tuning and 3 sounds effects that are bound to wake you up.

6.Lightsleeper Alarm Clock

Doesn't a bit of sunshine wake you up more easily? The Light Sleeper is made of a pillow and a duvet that were designed to make our body clock respond to an imitation sunrise, accelerating the wake-up process. This creative alarm will make the bedding gradually begin to glow in a natural rhythm over a 15-20 minute period, so you can wake up kind of 'spontaneously'.

Segway

Segway!!!! Seriously i really really really want to try riding it ok?

If you don't know what Segway is, it's a two-wheeled, self-balancing electric vehicle.
The dynamics of the Segway PT are identical to a classic control problem, the inverted pendulum. The Segway PT (PT is an initialism for personal transporter while the old suffix HT was an initialism for human transporter) has electric motors powered by Valence Technology phosphate-based lithium-ion batteries which can be charged from household current. It balances with the help of dual computers running proprietary software, two tilt sensors, and five gyroscopes (the gyroscopes do not affect the balance; they are merely used as sensors). The servo drive motors rotate the wheels forwards or backwards as needed for balance or propulsion. The rider accelerates or decelerates by leaning forward or backwards in the direction he or she wishes to travel. On older models, steering is controlled by a twist grip on the left handlebar, which simply varies the speeds between the two motors, rotating the Segway PT (a decrease in the speed of the left wheel would turn the Segway PT to the left). Newer models enable the use of "leaning" to steer as well as move forwards or backwards.
The Segway PT is built to stay balanced in one place. Designed to mirror the process of human walking, if the rider standing on an initially balanced Segway PT leans forward, therefore upsetting the balance, the PT moves forward to regain balance just as in walking a leg moves forward to retain balance. With the Segway PT, changes from a balanced status are first detected by the gyroscopes, and signals are passed on to the onboard computers which then direct motors to regain balance. This process occurs about 100 times per second, so small adjustments to maintain balance occur almost immediately after the balance is upset by the rider.[12]
The side effect of this balancing system is that as the Segway PT balances itself the entire unit changes position in the direction it has moved to restore balance. (For example, if the rider leans forward, the entire Segway PT will move forward from its original position, until the rider restores an upright position on the unit.) This is precisely how the Segway PT is controlled - the balancing and movement is essentially one combined system.
The Segway PT features a governor (speed limiting) mechanism. When the Segway PT approaches the maximum speed allowed by the software, it intentionally begins to tilt slightly backwards. This moves the platform out in front, and leans the handlebars backwards towards the rider, eventually nudging the rider to lean back slightly and slow the Segway PT down. If not for the governor, riders would be able to lean farther than the motor could ever compensate for. The Segway PT also slows or stops immediately if the handlebar of the unit (or forward bag) nudges into any obstacle.
Segways perform best in areas with adequate sidewalks, curb cuts at intersections, and ramps. They are used in some theme parks by visitors and employees. Angel Island State Park, in San Francisco Bay in California, offers Segway tours, but prohibits personal Segways except as needed by disabled visitors. The special police forces trained to protect the public during the 2008 Summer Olympics used the Segway for mobility.

Tumblr


I can say i can't live without this site, hehe.
But seriously this site is attractively addicting ok?

So if you don't know what tumblr is, so here it's
Tumblr is a microblogging platform that allows you to post text, images, videos, links, quotes and audio to your tumblelog, a short-form blog. You can follow other users, or choose to make your tumblelog private.
And tumblr's emphasis is on customization and ease of use, with a relatively simple sign-up process.
There are many forms of content that can be added to your own tumblelog, the seven general categories for posts include Text, Photo, Quote, Link, Chat, Audio, and Video. Users "follow" other tumblelogs, much like on Twitter, and their updates appear in one stream on the Dashboard. This is the interface from which users can like and reblog posts, as well as add content to their own tumblelog. The "like" button lets one user tell another that they like his or her content, and the "reblog" button easily reposts content from one tumblelog onto another.

Here's some looks

And my Dashboard :p


and if you're using smartphone like BlackBerry, Androids or iPhone you can blogging straight from your phone!
