This sterling silver ring in the shape of headphones by DarkCloudSilver is seriously making me drool. It's handmade and gorgeous, and one of the more chic pieces of geek jewelry I've seen.
Available from Oye Modern, it's priced in Australian dollars at $300 (about $270 USD), and they will ship internationally.
A little too high for me, but maybe I should figure out a way to get my boyfriend to check out this post, just in case he's looking for a Valentine's Day gift for a geeky girl. . .? Eh, a girl can dream.
On Friday, Engadget announced that the 8GB Zune had dropped in price from $199 to $179. Well what a difference three days makes on Amazon! The green and red models are down to $176, while the black model is now only $170. Who said you needed a huge 80GB version anyways. With 8GB storage capacity you can still store up to 2,000 songs, 25,000 pictures or 25 hours of videos.
And best of all, the pink model is only $174, which makes it a great Valentine's Day gift option—hint, hint!
Don't rely on brutally honest little kids and loved ones to tell you when you have bad breath — let technology do it for you!
I have no idea how this Halitosis Detector works, but it's definitely appealing to my deepest insecurities. For just $11 (on sale from $25!), this little gizmo somehow measures your breath in four different stages of stinkiness.
I'm guessing the horrified icon screaming, "Wait!" on display is the worst. What do you say, use the covert breathing-into-your-hand trick, or would you trust this gadget to have your back?
Guess who was caught in her party dress holding a BlackBerry Curve 8310? I think it's safe to say that she's ditched her BlackBerry Pearl once and for all. I mean what's not to like about the new 8310. . . It now comes with built-in support for Telenav GPS navigation and takes crystal clear pics with the 2-megapixel camera that offers a 5x zoom and flash. And to top it off, the online price of the new Curve is only $100 (with a two year agreement). Any idea who it is? Leave your answer below!
If football doesn't float your boat but you still want to have some fun today, Grant Robinson has created a fun game called Guess-the-Google. Guess-the-Google shows twenty images arranged in a grid formation where you have to guess the keyword that created the montage. Once you open the website click Launch Project to open the game. You only get so many seconds and guesses, so play smart!
This past week, I was totally shocked when Digital Home announced that millions of people are putting the "Super" back in "Super Bowl" Sunday by purchasing brand new HDTVs. As some of you revealed, this could be in part due to the fact that during Super Bowl season, TV prices tend to drop, or because people purchase fancy TVs for watching the game and return them later—Say what?! Nonetheless, I can't deny how crisp and clear the picture is on a high-quality screen—whether you're watching football, ballet or American Idol. And if you happen to be thinking about purchasing a HDTV, be sure to check out Yahoo! Tech's ten tips for a Super Bowl-Worthy HDTV! On that note, do you care if you watch the Super Bowl on a HDTV?

A New Jersey man was arrested this week for regularly sneaking into a church to access porn on a nun's computer, SFGate reports. He was finally caught by a custodian and chased out to a police officer, but I have to wonder what this guy was on. Maybe he didn't have his own computer, but a NUN'S computer?! I mean, I freak out when I'm at the library and think someone next to me is using the computers there to access porn, but a CHURCH? Really?! That's a form of desperation (or fetishism?) I just cannot wrap my head around.
I did a poll a few months ago asking you guys if you used your work computer to view NSFW content, and a lot of you did. So now I want to know, have you ever used someone else's computer (work computers only count if it was your coworker's computer) to access porn, NSFW content, or any stuff you basically thought you shouldn't be looking at?
