Martha Stewart gives her seal of approval to the Nintendo Wii in Wired Magazine
Could it be possible that the Wii has finally crashed and burned, and is now lying on our shag pile by the telly in a heap of ashes? I ask this of you, dear readers, as it’s come to our attention via WiiWii that my favourite-magazine-on-earth, Wired, has a picture of Martha Stewart icing a Wii cake on next month’s cover.

Shiny Shiny's list of the top five most unreadable watches
Susi from Shiny Shiny is renowned in our office for having the world’s most ridiculous watch. Like Macs, it looks good, but it doesn’t really work very well, and in most cases, she just uses the time on her BlackBerry rather than spending 40 minutes studying her Tokyo Flash timepiece.
Inspired no doubt by the shouty ‘NOW’ watch released the other day, she’s put together the top five most unreadable watches stupidity can buy you. Better keep a hold of your mobile phone just in case, natch…

The best video on teh internets, ever. iPhone parody of the Pussycat Dolls' 'Dontcha'
Without a doubt, this video is what the internet was created for. Forget the Nintendo sixty-foooouuuur kid, the otters holding hands, heck, even the My Hands Are Bananas vids, this is the creme de la creme of online video.
Wait for the killer chorus – “dontcha wish your cellphone was hot like me, dontcha wish your keypad was button-free…dontcha wish your cellphone was raw like me, dontcha wish you spent more than half a gee”. Perfect. I will probably be watching this video thirteen times a day on average. Well, at least until someone creates a parody of Depeche Mode’s…

Shimadzu head-mounted monitor / HUD
Japanese tech company Shimadzu has created this fashionable piece of headwear for the discerning Facebook addict – the DataGlass HMD.
You whack it into your USB socket and are greeted by the impression that a 10″ monitor screen is floating in front of about two feet away. But only in front of one of your eyes.
