I had learned from Fab that fashion designer Giles Deacon had incorporated some intense geeky Pac Man headgear during his London Fashion Week runway show, but I had no idea that such a dress like this existed — stop the presses!
After my run in with the Space Invaders dress at the FCUK store, it became apparent to me that video game graphics on sexy designer dresses wasn't that taboo, and that it was actually kinda sexy.
This sparkly couture Pac Man dress features the key elements from the popular arcade video game, including the ghosts and Pac Man himself. Now get some cherries on there, and this geek would have to add one to her ever-growing wish list!
In this election year, the candidates have to face the modern issues that technology brings. I don't just mean the use of technology in the campaign, like Palin's sudden Wikipedia debut or watching speeches on the Internet; I mean how the candidates themselves regard technology. In one corner, Barack Obama is perceived as the tech-savvy candidate, as an iPhone user, the promoter of an iPhone App, and a campaign website with a user-friendly interface. He's facing off with the less tech-savvy McCain, of whom much has been made of his admission that he doesn't know how to use a computer, which raises the question of, how much do you need to understand something to pass laws on it?
Admittedly, there are far bigger issues our candidates are facing, but I do take technology into consideration, for the obvious reason that tech is a huge part of my life.
So tell me, are any tech issues affecting your vote in any way?
The artist silk screens the window image onto the frame, and then you slip your photograph into the frame. I love the idea, but I'm pretty sure I'd be worried about how much battery I have left every time I looked at it.
Act fast if you're into it, because only about 50 will be produced for the holidays at $50 a piece.
Another fabulously geeky week is over, and what do we have to show for it? A ton! If you missed any of the rumors, announcements, or fun TV tech quizzes, check out my slideshow to get brought up to speed!
These days I tend to just look for a desk lamp that can do what it's supposed to do: light up. Even when it has a nice second feature, like this lamp/iPod dock, I just want a utilitarian lamp.
But I could totally ignore all that for this USB Desk Lamp by Japanese Design firm Conof, which provides light and spare USB ports? Plus, I just love that cool C-shape — and the lamp head also rotates 270 degrees. Doesn't look like pricing is available yet, but I'm wishing and hoping for a green one.
But what do you think? Is it modern cool or just modern cold?

I can't decide if SideTaker is cruel and petty or brilliant and practical, but I'll give it this: It's freaking entertaining.
On SideTaker, couples come in and write their two sides of a fight and why they think they're right.
In place of a good old standoff at home or a session on the couch at couples' therapy, the anonymous users of SideTaker vote for who's right and leave comments supporting the side they're on.
I don't think I could air my fights on a website, but for those of you who do, keep truckin'. I love hearing stories like how his refusal to flush the toilet to save money is tearing them apart.
