Which Rubik's Cube-Inspired Table Do You Prefer?

The Jellio Rubik's Cube Table ($600, left) looks just like the real thing: a tribute to the '80s. Despite its authentic looks, it actually doesn't twist, which doesn't fly well in my book. If I'm going to own a table that parades as a functioning Rubik's cube, I'd at least prefer one with a more palatable palette, like the Generate Ruby Cube ($399, right).Like the real thing better?

Rubik's Cube Alarm Clock: Totally Geeky or Geek Chic?

We use the term geek around here fast and loose, as it's kind of become a catch-all phrase for passionate techies, gamers, and gadget lovers everywhere. It's not necessarily a synonym for nerd anymore — necessarily. Unless you were a geek who could put a Rubik's cube together! Oh I kid, I kid. But seriously, even though I couldn't put one together, I still had one, like every other '80s kid. Read more

Today I offer you a less intricate, but larger and more colorful Rubik's Cube cake created as a birthday treat for a self described geek by his mother. I adore the textured icing and rich color choice and love the fact that Read more

What's Better Than A Saturday Morning Cartoon?

Why, a bodybuilder wearing an overstretched thong while shaking her non-flabby tush for a couple of drummers and simultaneously solving a rubik's cube with her own two hands-- that's what! There is no rhyme or reason to this, until she flashes a message at the very end. Then it all makes perfect sense.  read more Read more

Totally Geeky or Geek Chic? Color Cube Speaker

Rubik's Cubes have undeniable geek cred. Maybe it's their retro appeal, maybe it's the fact that they require some added brain power, or maybe it's simply the fact that they're bright, colorful and fun. The Color Cube Speaker doesn't have rotating Rubik's Cube functions, but it does use a similar color scheme and touts the same fun factor. The speakers, which cost $79.95, change colors to the Read more
