Good News Everyone!

Following the recent renewal season for Futurama there has been a torrent of new creations based on it lately.

First from Matt De Lanoy a.k.a Pepa Quin's incredible Planet Express HQ, Head Museum to Robot Arms Apt and much much more, this culmination work for over two years is too awesome for any fans of the series to miss.

Then there are these CubeDudes from Andrew Lee.

What does all these have to do with BrickTech you asked? Well as far as we know, the series itself being some what Scifi and future tech related is all that we can think of, but we will use any excuse to show off cool creations!

The "Pading" is nice, not so much for the cost

The comic below does pretty much sums up the feeling one could have on Ipad first trial if you are even remotely technological affiliated.

Not an exaggeration.

The comic above, should you if by now haven't seen it yet for some reason come from The Oatmeal- What it's like to own an Apple product. Highly recommended!

Win7's OS-Tan gets her own mini-Anime

Like this Nanami Madobe wallpaper? You can get the original (1680 x 1050) here.

If you don't already know by now, Windows 7 (Windows 6.1 actually), Microsoft's latest desktop operating system (OS), was given an official mascot for the Japanese edition, to cater to the geek culture of OS-Tan, which is basically a personification of an OS. Pre-Win7 OS-Tans were unofficially created by fans, but for Win7, MS wanted to be part of the culture and hence created Nanami Madobe. We first blogged about her here.

Prefer this wallpaper of her instead? The original (1920 x 1200) is here.

Now she has her own anime, albeit a short one to promote using Win7 as a SFF (Small Form Factor) or HTPC (Home Theatre Personal Computer). Take a look @ her in action in this YouTube video:
