Winter’s coming up, and some of you might miss summer. Here’s a picture to remind you how fun it is. A ‘summer jump’ platform as some called it. It’s the Italian Trampoline, about 100 meters from the shore, near the city of Rhodes, Rhodes Island of Greece.

Sometimes, things go so wrong when you’re drunk. Like the dude above. He’s getting the wrong perception. But then again, people says that when you’re drunk, what you do reflects the real you. So… you get the drill. A very Manly Marilyn Monroe. This is so wrong, people!

Paul Butler is an intern in Facebook, and he (probably nothing to do) has put together an image by feeding in location data for pairs of friends connection. The white lights represent cities, towns, and hamlets, and the blue streaks between them identifies relationships linking them. It’s awesome that it actually managed to plot down the world’s map, almost accurately.

Obviously missing is China which blocks Facebook, and Russia which has the LiveJournal system. You can see how heavy Facebook’s traffic is at East of US, and UK. But surprisingly South East Asia also has a strong Facebook presence.

How does controlling 85 colour-changing LED lights with your wrist feel like? Add a custom soundtrack to go with that. If you live in Lima, Peru, then probably you’ll have a chance to know. The picture you see above is the DJ Lights system. Yes, doing DJ with lights. The name says everything. the light-based, interactive art installation follows your gestures with a heat-sensitive camera placed above your head, and alters the DMX-controlled lighting and audio according to your movement. And despite the chilling atmosphere it creates, this is apparently part of a Christmas exhibit in Peru.

And here I thought that the iPad is a very personal gadget, but sometimes you just had to share it with your family members. Don’t you feel irritated when the missus snatched off the iPad and use it for her KPH members’ gossip session at Facebook? When you get it back, you’re logged out of your Facebook, your Twitter, and probably everything else… or nearly. That’s why at times like this, the system above seemed like a dream.

Kiddy style rubber wraps are not your cup of tea? No problem, here’s a rugged watch strap for your new iPod Nano.
