Cross Shaped MP3 Player Fits Across Your Heart
The Cross MP3 player first caught my eye because of its shape, but I was even more intrigued when I noticed the player, which combines an element of geekery and jewelry, is only $36.
I learned from 2dayBlog that it features a built-in loudspeaker, has phone-book, electronic files, FM radio, voice recording and supports MP3 and WAV files. No word whether it was created to represent a geometrical figure or the four cardinal points, but if it is supposed to be a religious player I think it definitely beat out the iBelieve shuffle player.

It's the same game you know and love from before (which could be a good or bad thing, depending on how you look at it), but thankfully there are a few awesome new features on the Wii version that you won't find on any of the other consoles.
One of which is the Wii Speak adapter ($30) that lets you chat with others from around the world via your WiFi connection.
Comedian David Cross Rocks Out On Guitar Hero
One of the funniest men on the planet David Cross was caught having a geek moment at SXSW this weekend when he busted out some Guitar Hero with the hilarious NYC based standup comedian Aziz Ansari.
I got a chance to see Ansari at the 2005 SF Sketch Fest where he did an entire routine of geek jokes and exposed his brother for being a hardcore online gamer - I was the only person in the audience that was actually moved to tears of laughter, but the act was enjoyed by all. read more

A serious-sounding Bret leaned forward into the microphone and said, "We have three songs on the next Rock Band." A lot of people think he's joking, but I detected a note of seriousness.
