Cheap iPhone clones

If you think that the iPhone is still too much for your wallet and you have a history of liking let's say... more accessible versions of known those more expensive brands, then this might interest you.

They're making a chinese version of the iPhone, it's a bit fatter and uglier and doesnt work that well, but it's way more cheaper and looks the same if don't come too close to it. They just call it "HiPhone"

Check out how it works

Deep from the townships of South Africa. Tropical bloghouse, anyone?

New Luxux for them graff heads!

Our main man Fiskars (also known as one third of the six-legged party machine Top Billin) is one helluva graphic designer. Now this dude can draw them stick figures, to say the least. During the last few years, countless 12" record sleeves, cd-covers, t-shirts, party flyers, posters, even skateboards have had the priviledge to become illustrated with Fiskars' crazy nice vectors.

So if you don't know, ya'll better recognize. The man has put a new portfolio site out there for you to enjoy. Here you go: www.Luxux.com

Thomas Bangalter Knows Savate!

Daft Punk Thomas Bangalter getting it on in da club, with his Ed Banger electro warriors! 

Kicking some nasty bouncer's ass because someone of their gang was not let into the V.I.P, apparently. And probably all coked-up for good measure. 

Vive La France! 

FYI: Savate is mad french O.G. kick-boxing type of skill for kicking some ass.

This starts bit slow but when they get the track going, on boy...

The New Jopo 3 - beauty or beast?

Here you go, the 3rd generation of Jopo with 3 gears. I must admit that the 2nd gen version from 2000 is way much cooler looking (well I ride an army green 2006 model like this . And we all agree on the fact the the og Jopo is the classic.

This time the designers have managed to come up with something that lacks the original feel and looks like a cheap copy. I don't mind the gears, they had version with 2 gears way back, but this just looks cheap. Like those foldable bikes for mariners...

And I also found out that all Jopos are made in Taiwan nowadays. Shiiiiet, at least mine was still manufactured in Hanko.

Radio Friendly Unit Shifter '09 - alt-daddy's daydream

So cool, Nick Catchdubs and his alt-advisor Mr. Ducker made a sequel to their Radio Friendly Unit Shifter mixtape from last year. Which was maybe the nicest mixtape whole year. So that means that I don't even have to tell you that this sequel is SO NECESSARY!

Best Glam Rock Ever: Million Miles Away

From the theatrical spanish guitar intro to the corny sax solo, this is just pure rock history every note. And you can't go wrong with lyrics like "I smoked a lot of sky, I drank a lot of rain". And combine this with the melodramatic story of the band that almost got to be the biggest band in the world, you got something bigger than life.

Digitytöt!

Yes, it's finally open to all nerds worldwide! The Digitytöt are here. Go check it out, if you feel even a bit nerdy/techie/trekkie.

The concept obviously resembles Diggnation, but that's cool, 'cos they do this with a different twist.

Let's see if they have the stamina to keep this as interesting and entertaining as Kevin Rose and Alex Albrecht.

RE: If Sci-Fi Nerds Ruled the World...

As a kid I found the Cylons quite scary, with their humming visor sound and all. But these Battlerstar Galactica Convention regulars in the previous post.... Their middle class version of the Cylon is more like Bender here. It's hilarious.

Fashion bloggin'

Fashion blogs are getting more 'n more popular every day, there must be hundreds of kids making them now. The swedes are obviously years ahead of us with Blondin Bella and others but we're getting there.

Just too bad they're mostly made by gurrls, so they concentrate more on the feminine side of life. If you're a chica in your twenties you could go fo' stuff like Fashion Overdose. That one is actually kinda cool, she's interviewing Annie and what kind of clothes Annie likes to wear - something you would expect from Anna Abreau perhaps, not Annie.

So if you know of any male oriented fashion blogs, plz let us know. Or better yet, start making one of your own, dude!
