Suppose you are a traveling salesman with a yen for the local anchorwoman. You spend day after fruitless day on the road, only to come home each night to a lonely hotel room. You sit there in your underwear drinking beer and watching the sub-par anchorwomen of whatever godforsaken town you happen to be in tonight. Well fret no more because the Japanese company Novac has released a television tuner for Skype software. It enables your computer to broadcast TV shows via the internet.

I really want one of these case mods! I’m really not interested in over-clocking gadgets; my PC’s fast enough, but it looks too plain. I’d be very happy to have one of these boy racer mods though.

A present for any male single geek friends, Fifi - The exotic laptop dancer.

Fifi comes on her own CD Rom and shows does a personalised lap dance for the watcher. Taken from the site:

More info about Fifi - Let Me Dance On Your Laptop and I think she performs on desktops too :).

Microsoft has finally released the new MSN version and it’s out of beta stage, previously called MSN Messenger 8 beta, now turns into Windows Live Messenger.

To start with, if you’re living in the moon for the past decade and have no idea what MSN Messenger is all about, I’ll give you an idea by saying that it is a “free instant messaging client for Microsoft Windows”.

In other words, it’s a program that lets you chat with your friends online and do a bunch of other things, similar to the cellphones situation in which the main function (make/receive calls, send/receive sms) has been forgotten; the buzz in this case is on the extra features that can take full advantage of what the internet has to offer, and the interaction between users.

This is another one of those “Why hasn’t it been done before” gadgets, a Webcam with night vision. So your friends can see who they’re talking to even if the lights are off.

I must admit I do wonder about the sort of people who would use a webcam like this. Okay I think I can guess the sort of people that would benefit from a camera like this, just make sure you lock the door :).

Available from USB Geek for a measly $35 [found via i4u]
