"Thriller" Themed Headphones Make Your Music Spooky, Scary
I'm all about rocking the big headphones, and although this set isn't exactly my cup of tea, they are commendable nonetheless. These spooky graveyard headphones took one of the top spots at a Nokia design competition in London last week, and will be made and sold at select stores.
Topped with tombstones, grass, zombies and monster heads, the design team of ATOM Creative Solutions based the design on Michael Jackson's "Thriller."
Vintage Video Game Memorial: Michael Jackson's Moonwalker
However you watched Michael Jackson's memorial, we all have our own ways of dealing with the loss of a cultural icon. For my friends, it was by pulling out something dusty from the back of a closet: a Sega console and a copy of — wait for it — Michael Jackson's 1990 video game Moonwalker.
We blew out the game and hooked it up, and like Jackson himself, gameplay is a pretty outrageous.
How Did You Watch Michael Jackson's Memorial?
There wasn't a dry eye in the house by the end of Michael Jackson's memorial service, and audiences across the world tuned in to watch from afar. At Sugar HQ groups spectated via Slingbox, gathered around the lobby television, streamed the memorial service online, and checked blogs for updates while we worked.
Since there were so many ways to tune in to the emotional service (and over one billion people were expected to be watching through various methods from around the world), tell me, how did you watch?
BillieTweets.com Launches a Twitter Tribute to Michael Jackson
As the world continues to come to grips with the death of Michael Jackson, the loving tributes are starting to pop up.
The geekiest thus far (and my personal favorite) is Billie Tweets, a website that streams Jackson's hit Billie Jean and then matches real-time tweets to it.
So that means that if you're on Twitter and one of your tweets contains a lyric to the song, it may be getting pulled to Billie Tweets right then to complete the song.

How Did You Learn About the Tragic MJ News?
On Thursday, June 25, we not only lost Charlie's Angel star Farrah Fawcett, but the king of pop — Michael Jackson.
For many of us, the Michael Jackson news was so unexpected that we couldn't help but take to the Internet to see if the sad news was actually true. With fans flooding the Internet, sites like Google News were inaccessible at times, with many other sites having several outages to deal with an influx of traffic.

Facebook Measures How Happy We Are
Apparently this is a real metric: Facebook recently announced it would begin to track our gross national happiness via status messages. The social networking company worked with a team of social psychologists to come up with lists of positive words ("yay," "happy," and "awesome," for example) and negative words ("sad," "doubt," "tragic.")
It then published an index of how we are collectively feeling day-to-day. Turns out we're happiest on national holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas, and social holidays like Halloween.
Do You Get Your News From Twitter?
On a recent episode of The View, funnywoman Sherri Shepherd kept referring back to various news stories that she read on Twitter discussed with other tweeters in the twitterverse. Now I must admit, I'm guilty of heading straight to my Twitter page when I hear breaking news stories (especially when I heard about Michael Jackson's passing and then about Patrick Swayze on Monday — so sad), just to see if something is legitimately true. We already know that Whoopi steers clear of Twitter, but would you say you're a Twitter-news junkie like Sherri?
