5 of the Geekiest Chess Sets Ever

Well every single person in this universe (yes I do include any AI that may exist) has already played a game called chess. If you are good at it or not is another question, which leads me to think that very few people who are reading this post are actually good. The point of this blog is not how it is played or whether one is good or not, it’s all about how it looks. I personally am instigated to play chess when I see a beautiful board, specially when the pieces are made of crystals or acrylics. Even though I have seen many pretty boards I never saw one as these that follow. Some of them are not really nice looking however this is not a beauty competition and yes a how geek it is competition. Follow now the five most geek looking chess tables a human will ever see.

Creative Ways to Play Mario Bros Theme Song

The Super Mario Bros theme, also known as the Overworld theme, was produced by composer Koji Kondo in the 1980s. Before settling on the final version, Kondo scrapped many ideas if he felt the music didn't play in well with the action. Well after all he submitted the song and it became the success we all know today. Here are the videos of the five most creative ways I found on youtube of people playing the song. Not only creative however they sound pretty nice also.

The first video was the most creative and probably time taking of these all, but just look at these Japanese people it seems that they don't really have any other business to take care of so its fine.

The second video is a classic video found in youtube, Dual guitar. It's also quite challenging to do what that guy does.

String Bass is also a common video to find and sounds just fine.

Ocarina? Ever heard about this? Well I have, however never as an instrument to play Master Koji Kondo songs. Let’s take a look and see the outcome, at least a little something it must have to be in my top six chosen.

Stepper Motors are also instruments! Hmm seems uncommon however if you are reading this you are not looking for common things so here you have one of the most unusual instruments a human being could ever waste many hours creating and programming in order to obtain a couple of views in youtube and feel good about himself. (Sorry if I offended any one however that is the truth!)

VirtuSphere Offers Virtual Reality Gaming at GDC

Ever thought on playing a real life virtual game? Sound wrong, however its the future of gaming with the VirtualSphere. This human size hamster ball enables the player to walk around the game, and together with the controller (in this case the guns) and the goggles which enable the gamer to be placed inside the game. Well until now the only game available in the VirtuSphere are shooting games, though as technology goes I don't believe it will take long for other games to be creates.
The only real problem is the size of the Virtual game. One would really enjoy gaming in order to buy one of those, and not only this but also the salty price of fifty five thousand dollars.

Twitter flies past its 10 billionth tweet

I never saw a twitter page however I know it seems pretty big since every single person I know already spoke about it at least once. Why I never saw it? Well I initially had an orkut page, which was surpassed by facebook and as twitter arise I didn’t' have patience either for the orkut nor the facebook so I just chose one and use it until today. The reason why I am writting this today is very simple, Overnight, Twitter flew past the 10bn tweet milestone, according to the GigaTweet site, which tracks the microblogging service. It has taken more than three years to get there. However, Twitter's rapid growth means that the next 10bn should be knocked off in 203 days. Well it seems as twitter is really big today and that i should check it out, however I have something that doesn’t allow me and that is called IB. For those who don't know what IB stands for never try to figure it out it won't add anything to your life. After all it’s midnight and I am here doing things for IB. I am now waiting for the new 'Twitter' or 'Facebook' to arise and only then I will check it out.
The system is not hard to track, because Tweets are numbered. You can see tweet 9,999,999,999 by Rafaela Marques from Brazil, who may now get some unexpected attention. Sadly, you can't see the 10 billionth because it was from a user who protects his or her tweets.

RoboPlow Will Terminate Snow

Ever had to plow the snow on the entrance of your house? Well instead of abusing of your neighbors son and giving him an incredibly low amount of money here is an alternative for you. The RoboPlow is an incredible robot which is computer controlled and manages to clean large amounts of snow. At first it does not seem to be very strong, however its 660 amps of strength, integrated camera and hydraulics to control the plow enables it to do an astonishing job. Terminating snow, or just plowing it, has been made easy, thanks to the RoboPlow. This robot "sports a 50" blade, six wheel drive, and a bad attitude when it comes to all things snow. If you don't enjoy this new invention I will have to acknowledge that it’s going to be very difficult to please you.
