A Visual Guide to Twitter

What exactly is Twitter? Some people don’t get what Twitter is about and this visual guide is probably the best illustration of the many uses of Twitter.

Ninja Star Magnets

Since my previous post covered Ninja Star push pins I might as well follow it up with Ninja Star magnets. I know that some people would rather use a whiteboard than a corkboard (and some use both) so these magnets would be better for them.

Ninja Star Push Pins

Sick and tired of your regular colored push pins? You can go out and buy some of those cutesy push pins at PowerBooks or Fully Booked. But, if you think of yourself as a masculine type who wouldn’t bother with anything saccharine or cheesy, then these Ninja Star push pins are probably meant for you.

Lego business card

Not actually a business card but these mini figurines (minifigs) are what Lego staffers are given to hand out to their clients. Their names are in front while the details are at the back. I wonder how they carry them around? Do they just store a couple in their pocket?

MicroNickel

I’d like to get several of these coins to store my MicroSD cards but they’re a bit pricey at $30 per coin. I’m almost 100% sure that if you get caught with one of these coins at an international airport the TSA will surely scan the contents of the MicroSD card. I wish they had the coins in my own currency, the Philippine Peso.

Twe2 - Get your Twitter Alerts via SMS worldwide for Free

Several months ago Twitter discontinued sending their SMS alerts to countries outside of the U.S.  It was a bit disappointing since I am often out on the road and I follow a number of tech luminaries whose tweets help me watch current trends.  It’s a good thing that someone decided to put up Twe2 so that folks like me can still get the same service for free.  Sure, there is a line of advertising at the end of the tweet but it’s no big deal.


The Lego Computer

My sons, Patrick and Hubie, would be more than willing to build this case mod…as long as there were step-by-step instructions.



There is a Filipino expression that would be most appropriate for the person who made the query - Hay naku!


Mount Everest 360° view

Ever wonder what the view is like from the top of Mt. Everest?  I’m sure a lot of folks have seen photos taken from atop Everest but there aren’t too many well-stitched 360° pictures like the one pictured on this website.
