Seeing Google Glass from a Toddler's Perspective Is So Adorable
May 16, 3:30AM
The best thing about Google Glass might be its ability to give anyone a perspective they never see anymore. Whether it's the intensity of playing hockey or uh, the weirdness of being someone else in the shower, it's like a less obtrusive GoPro camera seeing what people's eyes see. This might be the best perspective though: a toddler.

All the Fake Websites from Doctor Who Make Me Wish They Were Real
May 16, 2:35AM
TV show websites are notoriously bad and comically unreal yet I can't help but be charmed by their hilarious simplicity (and god awful horribleness). Can you imagine if there were giant flashing RED ALERT messages popping up at you? Or if hacking was as simple as just slapping the keys on the keyboard a few times? I want to exist in this world of fake websites.

A Mom Tried to Sell Her Three-Year-Old Son on Craigslist
May 16, 1:30AM
A bicycle. An old jailbroken iPhone. Maybe used furniture. Some free dirt. Those are the type of things you expect to buy off Craigslist. You definitely don't expect a Mom to offer up her three-year-old son on the seedy but useful classifieds website. But that's just what Stephanie Redus did. She used Craiglist to get her son adopted by a new family.

Watch Liquid Water Instantly Turn into Ice
May 16, 12:33AM
Turning water into ice usually takes a lot of time. Not for this guy though, he magically turns liquid water into frozen ice. It's instantaneous! Seriously, just watch water get poured from the bottle and then freeze immediately. What kind of sorcery is this?

May 15, 11:29PM
Google wants Microsoft to remove the YouTube app in Windows Phone 8 because it doesn't show any ads. Understandable! But Microsoft says it would be happy to include advertising in the YouTube app... if Google gave Microsoft the proper APIs. Round and around we go. [Verge]

Larry Page Reminded Us Why We Love Google Today
May 15, 10:03PM
Larry Page, Google's CEO and co-founder, closed out the Google I/O keynote today with a sentimental, almost subdued speech. He didn't sound like a CEO. He sounded like a guy in charge of a company he genuinely thought could change the world. And it was a wonderful reminder that Google used to be, can be, and in many ways still is, so much more than a company.

Summer approacheth, and with summer comes festivals—all sorts of festivals! Whether you're a music buff, renaissance enthusiast, or food and wine connoisseur there's a festival out there somewhere waiting for you. Now an actual Swiss Army knife is handy to have, but probably won't do you too much good at any of the above. A festival-specific Swiss Army app though? Just what ye olde doctor ordered.

May 15, 9:34PM
Look at all the stupid people. I mean, there's probably more to say here, about responsibility or exhibition of reckless behavior brought on by the wired age, but really, like... look at all these stupid people.

Google Play Music All Access Hands-On: All You Want (Minus Friends)
May 15, 9:12PM
Today at its I/O developer's conference, Google launched Google Play All Access, its long-anticipated subscription music service. I just spent some time exploring the on-demand catalog as well as its radio and music discovery features. The service's UI is impressively fast and fluid. Indeed, it's minimal in all the right ways. If only it wasn't so lonely in there.

May 15, 8:46PM
A federal magistrate judge in New York recently ruled that cell phone location data deserves no protection under the Fourth Amendment and that accordingly, the government can engage in real-time location surveillance without a search warrant. In an opinion straight from the Twilight Zone, magistrate judge Gary Brown ruled two weeks ago that "cell phone users who fail to turn off their cell phones do not exhibit an expectation of privacy."

Arcade Alarm Clock: The Konami Code Won't Buy You More Shuteye
May 15, 8:40PM
It might have given you invincibility or unlimited ammo on the countless games that acknowledged it, but sadly the Konami code won't buy you a single second of extra sleep on this custom Xronos alarm clock. But the large scoreboard-like LED display and use of authentic console buttons will have you wondering if you fell asleep at the arcade again.

Everything Google Tried to Kill Today at Google I/O
May 15, 8:31PM

Sorting through it all, it's clear that the company's not just trying to put new goodness into the world; it's trying to blow plenty of existing products and services out of the water. Here are all the things Google's looking to unseat and uppercut into the spike pit.

If you ever stared at a chrysalis as a kid, patiently waiting for a beautiful new butterfly to emerge, you were probably left wondering just what was going on inside there. Was the caterpillar reconfiguring itself like a Transformer? Was it morphing like a Terminator? Nobody knows—except now everyone does thanks to these fascinating micro-CT 3D x-ray scans of the process.

This Is How the Web Was Built, According To Google
May 15, 7:40PM
It might seem impossible to comprehend the web existing before Google but it did! And the company built on search has had a significant impact on how the web looks and works today. During today's I/O keynote, this little video was shown and it's so disgustingly cute for such a nerdy topic that I just had to share it in case you missed it.

Gripping Photos Capture the Mirror Worlds of North and South Korea
May 15, 7:20PM
Architectural photographer Dieter Leistner was born the same year East Germany began construction on the Berlin Wall. He was 37 when it fell. Maybe that's why his interest in North and South Korea feels so personal—he spent forty years in another divided country.
