Strange Bicycle Models

Tuesday, July 29, 2008

This is awesome. I stumbled upon something on the net (yes... I'm starting to become addicted to that Stumble! button) and my preference settings in SU are set to humor/odd/bizarre so you can just imagine the kind of things I get to stumble upon. Just now I was going through it and found some interesting bicycle models.


Well it IS rubber after all

The picture above is just one of my favorites. If you look at it, it makes perfect sense really. The bicycle itself sends a funny but logical message. Being a bicycle, it can take you to places faster than walking so the shoes kind of symbolize the fact that if you use a bicycle, you'd practically be using several pairs of feet. See how I can put art into everything? Awesome right? LOL.

There are more examples of strange bicycle models in the website I stumbled.

iPhone 3G: battery life

Sunday, July 20, 2008

Much has been said even before the iPhone 3G came out and now that it's ready for consumption, people have been doing a lot of test-drives that pushes the phone's limit. Just to make sure it's worth your money. Apple said that the iPhone 3G can last five hours for talk time and people have been groaning about it. Is it really that bad? Now since I'm not exactly a big Apple fan (not a Microsoft baby either) I would still want to know how long I can use it. If it's going to be an all-purpose phone and with 3G, I would want something that can last me especially with the price it's asking me to pay.

So I came across this post on comparing iPhone 3G's battery life.

3G talk time (in hours) of GSM phones
(Longer bars indicate better performance)

when you look at it like that... it doesn't seem so bad now, does it?
