I should have turned this into a
guess the gadget because I never would have guessed in a million years that someone would actually take their old G4 case and turn it into a mailbox—but then again if it's just wasting space and not being used, you might as well get creative! Featured on
Geekologie, this pretty sleek
Apple mailbox puts traditional red mailboxes to shame. How long do you think it will last before someone tries to a) beat it with a hockey stick or b) steal it cause they think it's valuable?
Thanks to TeamSugar user
sunny_and72 (aka Kellie DeFries) for sending us this fabulous and blingin' iPhone. As chief designer for
Bling My Thing, Kellie created this design for the
iPhone called "Rainbow Boogie," which does in fact come in a rainbow of colors! I wonder how long it takes to create such a sparkley masterpiece?
If it weren't for
KadBunny I might have missed this
Jumbotron DS, which is quite honestly the largest
Nintendo DS I've ever seen.
It's essentially a Nintendo DS hooked up to two Tablet PC screens, using an FPGA in between to do some translation magic. Pen input from the Tablet PC screens is sent back to the DS.
Today's
Moment of Geek comes to us courtesy of
FitSugar's friend, who has a custom cake business,
Cakes By 2 Moms, in the Bay Area. What I like about these
edible geek treats in comparison to the oodles of
video game cakes we've seen, is the fact that they look like something I'd like to eat. They aren't covered in inches of fondant, but they still tout some serious geek cred and creative designs.
Last week's
moment of geek champion the
Computer Monster might look at this cute and creative typewriter softie and see lunch, but I see a fun
geeky craft project that deserves kudos and a permanent place on a desktop. Its creator, a crafter that goes by the name of
blueblythe, says it is modeled after her boyfriend's great-great-grandfather's typewriter. "It took me several weeks of non stop sewing to finish," says blueblythe.
