Turn yourself into a UPC







Turn yourself into a UPC

Turn yourself into a UPC 02/18/2004 10:53 AM

Feeling overly humanized? Let this Flash-based barcode-generator dehumanize you a little: apparently this UPC decodes to "32-year-old male, 173 lbs, 5'10", living in the US." Link (Thanks, Liz!)

BadBlue allows you to interpret your workplace (or school) sysadmin as damage and route around him. The way it works is, you install an app on your home, broadband-connected PC, and then when you get to the office or school, you run a complimentary app on your PC there. The app disguises and forwards all of your Web traffic to your home PC, which fetches and sends back the pages you're looking for, free from automatic monitors, filters, and workplace snoopers.

If this sounds familiar, that's because it's based on the principles underpinning Peek-a-Booty and other "hactivist" apps intended to give Chinese dissidents and other prisoners of censoring proxies free access to the net. Of course, the killer app for this is looking at porn at the office.

OfficeSurfer lets you surf in privacy from your office, bypassing corporate restrictions on specific web sites, defeating monitoring software, and preventing routine logging of your online activities.

Check personal email accounts... visit your favorite web sites... worry-free and hassle-free.

Gateway to consolidate Midwestern facilities: With this, Gateway is leaving Sioux Falls completely. This is too bad, as Gateway is a child of South Dakota.

Gateway will close its Sioux Falls, S.D., facility this month, as part of its plan to return to profitability.

Here's a statistic for you: in the last four years, Gateway has reduced their workforce by 91%, from 24,000 workers worldwide in 2000 to just 2,000 workers after this latest round of layoffs.

Turn any website into an RSS feed for $2 07/05/2004 06:17 AM
Bootleg RSS, a service for scraping websites and turning them into RSS, is taking requests. If there's a site you'd like RSS-ified, ping Carlo and he'll make it into a feed for $2.
Now, I've thought about the how. Hosting feeds costs money, scraping feeds is taking time, and maintaining a feed can take some time as well. So, I'm offering you the following service. First read the list of things you get, then see whether you'd be willing to shell out a small one-time fee of $2.

Pedestrian Turn Signals, Huh?


Pedestrian Turn Signals, Huh? 07/23/2004 01:25 PM

pedestrian.jpg
Hello again, Gizmodeans and Gizmodettes. As Joel said, I'm here to take over for the day. As he didn't say, I am so very not good at gadget news. I've been searching all morning for gadget news, and everything I find has already been on Gizmodo for days or weeks on end.

So here is the first of the many really uninteresting things I've found that seem to be new: Pedestrian turn signals (spotted on The Red Ferret Journal). They fit behind your ear and are wired to a little controller that lets you turn one or both of them on. I have no idea if they even blink. Sorry.

At the end of the day, I'll link to a really cool game that I think you'll all like, but until then, please don't yell at Joel when I link to stupid things like this and cool things that have already been on Gizmodo. I'm using the convenient Search box at the top of the site, but who truly knows what V770s, S320s, and SXRDs lurk in the heart of the Big G? Well, besides all of you and none of me.

Turn off the lights when you leave. 07/24/2004 06:16 PM
The end of the light bulb? E. Fred Schubert, a professor at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute "claims to have invented a 99-percent efficient reflector that promises to speed the replacement of light bulbs with LEDs." According to researchers, this could happen within the next five years. The current prototype is bankrolled by the ARPA and The National Science Foundation "recently award Schubert's team a $210,000 grant to create in three years a commercial version of his patented omnidirectional reflector."

"Schubert claimed that lighting accounts for 25 percent of U.S. electrical energy consumption. Since white LEDs emit more light per dollar and generate less unwanted heat, they are potentially a major energy saver."

Aprica Marshmallow J-Turn


Aprica Marshmallow J-Turn 08/19/2004 03:13 PM

aprica_marshmallow_3.jpg imageWhen I say "Marshmallow J-Turn," two things should instantly spring to mind. "Oh, a Japanese product," should be the first, and "Whaaaaa?" For once, though, the product name almost makes sense: the Aprica Marshmallow J-Turn is a hyper-padded, 5-point-harness baby immobilizer that masquerades as a car seat. It seems that Japanese babies have skulls particularly sensitive to thumps and impacts - at least if you take Aprica's word for it.

If you want to pretend your newborn is the nougaty center of a foam-covered safety bundle (and you can figure out someone who is importing them) the Aprica Marshmallow J-Turn 838 Thermo-Mamoru Sp02 will set you back a cool grand.
