Lights of Love?

I read an article today on Switched that made me go "...what?..."

So I am no stranger to intimacy, so I know the different ways two lovers can express their love. Such expressions include a kiss and a hug or holding hands. Even technology has been involved in the game of love like special "toys" or even through cell phones or computers, but light as well?

Distance Labs has created the Mutsugoto. The Mutsugoto is a device that allows two people who are separated but still want that sensual feeling together to share their lovin all over their body with special rings they wear. These rings some how allow light to pass to one person and vise versa. The lights are some how an unusual way that a couple can find another way to make themselves and their other-half feel good all night.

Podcasts Save Lives Everyday

One thing that I can not live without are my podcasts.

Podcasts are like pre-recorded radio that one can download on the iTunes store. They are, besides my girlfriend, my DS Lite and coffee, the only things that make my day just that much bearable.

The first podcasts I ever listened to was Achievement Junkies, an Xbox 360 oriented podcast where two Xbox fans, one who worked for Microsoft at one point, talked Xbox news whether it be new releases and updates. I experienced people with new opinions about video games other than my own. It was also a chance for me to create ideas for arguments about the video game industry, which I was and still am a big fan of.

Through out the years I've found many characters in such podcasts such as the Giant Bomb podcast, CAG Cast, the Geekbox and Rebel FM.

Without podcasts, I'd probably go insane and probably hear what people are telling me. iPod is always in the ear, ya know.

Twitter went down. Couldn't tweet my sadness, till now anyway.

A surprise attack on Twitter, Facebook and LiveJournal by hackers left the social networking sites unusable for approximately three hours. Thankfully, they are back up at 1 p.m. The lack of tweeting stirred up panic attacks world wide...or at least in my world there were people falling on the floor crying for a tweet.
