Tom Martin, clever lad that he is, has invented a glass that prevents spiking. Apparently, he got the idea after a friend was sexually assaulted as a result of drinking a spiked beverage.

From what I can tell, the glass is stylish, and cleverly designed. The center of the glass is hollow, and the beverage is contained between the double outer walls of the glass. The walls are so close together, that a special nozzle must be used to pour liquid into them, making it almost impossible to drop a drug into the drink. I hardly ever say this but, I am so impressed. And I bet, because Tom goes to design school in London, that he is probably English. Which would mean he has a sexy accent. Which means he’s completely awesome and gets to be my hero for at least the next two weeks or until I get distracted by something shiny.

Podcasts are the thing. So why not take an FM radio station and just make it pure Podcasts, that way you don’t need to pay the DJ? I’ll tell you why, cause it wasn’t your idea, it’s already in the making. KYOU Radio is going to launch in San Francisco and will be completely supported by Podcasts.

DJ’s could be out of a job. Then again, somebody has to sit around at the station to make sure it all runs smoothly. I for one applaud the idea, technology makes for an exciting time in music.

When I was 19 years old and in college, I procrastinated by watching TV, talking to dorm mates, playing sports, or just plain old napping. Our buddy Ben Horowitz is nothing like me. He breaks from research papers by creating a website. iProcrastinate is the name of his domain, and he’s assisted thousands of other college students in their quest to put off homework. MTV has taken note of the site and goes into depth about the features and functions of iProcrastinate. Ben had a different view of the phrase “procrastination is like masturbation, it feels good when you do it but in the end you’re just screwing yourself.”

Some games never do go out of style. Then again, after a quick revival, they get boring real fast. Atari, the first home video game maker is re-releasing a classic. Forty classics really. The refurbished game console will come with 40 of your favorite early 80′s crappy video games. It’s only $30 and in many ways its worth the nostalgia.

Personally, I want a new original Nintendo. You can still find people with them, but most are very moody, like cranky old retired men. The old blowing in the game cartridge trick doesn’t work like it used to. Please Nintendo, take a lesson from Atari and make some new classic units.
