Ride that Line:
There’s cool little app that seems to have invaded office cubicles everywhere – Linerider. It’s incredibly simple to use but the results can get as complicated as the limits of your imagination – and the physics of the thing is what really makes it a fun toy.

Season Shot – Ammo with flavor.:
Season Shot is made of tightly packed seasoning bound by a fully biodegradable food product. The seasoning is actually injected into the bird on impact seasoning the meat from the inside out. When the bird is cooked the seasoning pellets melt into the meat spreading the flavor to the entire bird. Forget worrying about shot breaking your teeth and start wondering about which flavor shot to use!

How many calories are in Coke Zero?:
If you answered zero, go to Question 2: how many calories are in Pepsi One? If you answer one, you are wrong. Nancy, a friend and colleague of mine, told me her son did a college project to find out how many calories are actually in soda. Pepsi One, it turns out, has something like 28 calories. Pepsi One pays a little fine every year to the Food & Drug Administration for lying about its calorie count, because it is much more profitable to pay the fine every year than change the calories.

Celebrity stalking for fun and profit:
File under Fun But Creepy Panopticon Effects:
