For all of you out there who are geek girls, or just someone who likes to coordinate your computer accessories, See Jane Work offers the Cyber Bug Mouse and Mouse Pad Set.

If you’re tired of the same old beige or black USB mouse, tired of the Dell mousepad that came with your computer or sick to death of not having any color or fun at your desk at work – then this is the product for you. Choose a mouse of one of 4 designs featuring images of fish, ladybugs and florals. You can plug in the mouse using the USB plug (or included PS2 adapter if necessary) and use them atop their coordinating mousepad to surf the Internet…I mean…work for hours on end. The ladybug sits atop a flower garden, the frog swims in a lake with fun lillypads, and the abstract floral mouse coordinates with some funky flowers in bright tones of orange, yellow and white.

The blind see with PSP

by Edwin

psp-blind-see.jpgWhile the PSP is an excellent portable gaming device, its thriving homebrew scene makes it all the more attractive. Italy’s Filippo Battaglia has released the Nanodesktop Blind Assistant that uses its webcam to identify and locate people within a room. This code is still proof-of-concept and currently relies on a PC to serve images, but developers have already promised that the next version will be “official” and “fully working”. Will someone be able to make a homebrew program for the DS Lite that enables deaf folks to “hear”?

There’s no encoding, no authoring or burning to DVD, no networking. Just a simple drag and drop.
