Laptop Ninja
A blog FOR Laptop Ninjas, not about them. A Laptop Ninja is a cousin of the more common Web Ronin. As a solitary figure who's skills with computer technology and design, the Laptop Ninja survives by performing contract work from cafes, public parks, and sometimes rooftops. The Laptop Ninja's sword is his 802.11 connection, his iPod his throwing stars, and his Bluetooth cellphone his Nunchucks. All of which are usually carried in a discreet messenger bag.

Hide your Cats

OH CWAP! We're all aware that robots are getting smarter every day and their eventual dominance over the human race is only a matter of time. The big question has always been weather or not the dolpins will beat them to it.

Now another threat has ~ahem~ surfaced in the goldfish community who, with the help of their unwitting human patsy, have developed the means to dominate land just as they've dominated the world's decorative ponds and glassware.
The 'Terrornaut' (OK, it's actually called a Teranaut, but I like my name better) is basically a fish Tricycle that moves wherever the fish swims. Oh the humanity.

Optimus Prime a Communist?
Mac vs. PC, GSM vs CDMA, PHP vs ASP, there are many things that tear Laptop Ninjas apart, but one thing we can all agree with is that Optimus Prime is pretty much the coolest character of all time. If you don't think so, please leave my site.

Hovever, it seem that just like his saturday morning contemporaries The Smurfs, he is also a communist, at least he likes to chill in China when he's not kicking Decepticon Ass. Deep in the heart of the Yunnan Provice stands a (lifesize?) statue of the the greatest leader of all time.

Just like Mecca, I predict that we'll start seeing thirty something fanboys making pilgrimages to this remote location just to see this awesome testament to the keeper of the Matrix. I know I'm booking my tickets now.

As for his political leanings, we can't say this is a suprise. I mean, it may seem a little weird, but if the Autobots are the ideological opposite of the Decepticons then they have to be communist. The Decepticons are a finely tuned military machine that is waging war and killing the environment to satisfy their thirst for 'Engergon' without any regard for the wellbeing of the planet or other cultures. Now who does that remind you of?

Forget Sleeping on Clouds, Mag-Lev your Bed!

Looking for a better sleep? Got $1.5 million kicking around in your bedroom redecorating budget?
This new bed from a crazy Dutch designer floats above the floor teathered only by a few thin cables. Just don't take your laptop anywhere near your bedroom.

If $1.5 million is a little steep, you can also get a pet-sized bed for about a tenth the price, seriously.
