New Snorkeling Technology

Snorkeling will never be the same. Anyone and their mother, brother and cousin can probably go hang out underwater now. Pretty cool invention though.

"Spanish start-up Aquanautas has created a new method of enjoying underwater activities without the need for scuba gear, tanks, masks and regulators. By wearing one of the company’s new helmets, a human can breath underwater as they would on the surface."

If Johnathan "Fatal1ty" Wendel can earn six figures a year gaming, then why can't we? 1Up.com has links to 101 free games to download. They span Action, Adventure/RPG, Arcade, FPS, Puzzle, Shooters, Simulations & Strategy. Let the training begin!

Get It Here First!

So I saw this cool site that will allow you to create your own newspaper snippet. I thought this was steak sauce. I didn't know I was going to have to write a whole article to fill up the page accordingly.

So what's new in your world? I can't believe I am my own freakin newspaper. I can be the editor, publicist, etc. Maybe I could even be Clark Kent. My wife does call me superman every now and again.

BitTorrent and TV Shows

LifeHacker has a cool DIY hack attack on how to setup Ted (torrent episode downloader) to download TV shows.

"Note: Lifehacker doesn’t condone piracy. Downloading and distributing copyrighted material is illegal, so proceed at your own risk. Of course, if you decide to go on, you could check out a few top Azureus plug-ins, my favorite being SafePeer, or you could try setting up anonymous Azureus. No guarantees either of these methods will keep the FCC from hunting you down and skinnng your children alive to make a point about that pirated episode of Amazing Race, though."
