There is just something creepy about this USB hubthat comes in the form of a forlorn looking cat, as you open up its back downwards to reveal a trio of USB 2.0 ports, while the cover ends up as the tail instead. Pretty clever design if you ask me. In addition, it looks as though it is gazing after its USB cable for the longest time in its life (all nine of them apparently). Too bad you won't be able to pick this up at retail stores since it is only available in bulk purchases via Alibaba. At least this is better than most USB hub designs we see these days.

You know that Disney-Pixar movie coming out? Yeah, the one with the cute little robot that has sex with the future or something? Yeah, that one.
Well Joe Meno, editor of Brickjournal magazine, made him out of LEGO. It looks good.

The American Association of Physics Teachers called the original Levitron "the best new science toy in a generation." This, the latest version, is so much more than a spinning top. As it spins (using only your finger-power, no batteries are required), it levitates above a magnetic pad, high enough for you to pass your hand under it, and is great fun for kids and adults alike.

Приятна забава
