USB AA batteries, COOL!

Check these out! These rechargeable USB batteries can be charged in any USB, in computers, laptops, xboxs, playstations, whatever. You just pop off the top and uncover a USB plug and put it in a USB port. Use like any AA battery.
This is really cool, no more throwing away old batteries.

I tip my hat to you Conan, You Are The Best! (HERE IS MY STANDING OVATION TO YOU)
Here is the last episode of Late Night with Conan O'Brien
To Late Night: I have always been a huge fan of the show and the great work you have produced. You have been a staple in my life and I can't thank you enough for the years and years of enjoyment you have given me.
Since the days of Conan and Andy taking the desk out for a drive (look at Andy's forehead hahaha!)

to 1864 baseball. (Thanks for the cool breeze, it was most cooling on my mustache, hahahah!)

You have always kept the laughs coming and I really deeply appreciate it. I will be watching episodes of the show till I die!
Best of luck on The Tonight Show!

Motorola will recycle your old cell phone
Motorola has a program that will take your old cell phone or cell phone accessory and recycle it for you, all you have to do is go to their website and tell them your address and they will send you a prepaid return envelope for FREE! no more tossing your old lead/mercury/lithium ion battery/plastic nature killing machine in the landfill, Motorola will recycle it for you. This is as simple as it gets, all you need to do is put it in the return envelope and stick it in a mail box.
And remember they will recycle ANY CELL PHONE OR ACCESSORY at no cost to you!
Now a company has to do that with regular batteries, I hate throwing those things in the trash

Don't worry your computer is not freaking out
KANYE WEST "Welcome To Heartbreak" Directed by Nabil from nabil elderkin on Vimeo.
I could not have thought that pixelation and bad video compression could be used as an art. Tastefully done.
If you watched it and think it is tacky and can't get over the fact that the video looks like it is messing up, I suggest you watch it again and go with the pixelation, trust me it is better the second time around.

I think I might get this phone

It seems like a legit phone. wifi internet, touchscreen, windows mobile, 5 mega pixel camera. It looks like a great iphone substitute especially if you don't have AT&T like me! VERIZON RATES ROYAL

William McDonough: Remaking the way we make things
Green-minded architect and designer William McDonough asks what our buildings and products would look like if designers took into account "all children, all species, for all time." He speaks about how designers are not designing products to be recycled or reused afters its death, and how he wants to change that.
I love this guy, his deadpan humor is on point.
I also am currently reading McDonough's book Cradle to Cradle. only 25 pages in but I like it. I love the cover of the book. also to note the book is not made of paper but recyclable polyfibers (i think thats what its called) its waterproof and very durable, i tried to rip a page and failed, its way cool

Bird fishes like a human
This bird has amazed scientists by the way it uses critical thinking like a human.
Give a bird a fish and it can eat for a day, teach it too fish and you have a crazy video to post on youtube.
