Pavilion Hotel Offering Complimentary iPad Use to Guests
I see a possible trend developing here. A little while back I told you about the Berkeley Hotel in London, where an iPad was stocked and waiting in your room. Sure, a night at said hotel with iPad in-tow was expensive as all get-out (£1,850 per night), but it was the first instance of an…

Endless varieties of meat, traditional Eastern European values, sexy women, Slivovitz … but what about terrible fate due to having a certain mobile phone number?

Internet Controlled Soda Machine Sells on eBay for $76
Retrofitting old junk with new guts always grabs my attention. That’s why, when MIT computer science grad Chris Varenhorst re-jigged a dirt cheap soda machine to his specifications, I had to chuckle.
