Apple fanboy’s #1 stalker accessory

Aug 18, 2008 Gadget

ThinkGeek is currently selling an iPhone camera telescopic lens attachment:

While the (suggested) use is a bit on the stalking side:

I think it’s a really cool idea to have telephoto lenses on mobile devices.
The attachment is selling for US $17.99 and is only compatible with the original iPhone, not the iPhone 3G. Get yours today!

Follow Eureka’s smartest home, SARAH on Twitter

Aug 13, 2008 TV Shows

I was watching last night’s episode of Eureka and noticed this:

It seems the SciFi channel has gone ahead and created a Twitter account for sheriff Carter’s house, SARAH (Self Actuated Residential Automated Habitat).

I think it’s a great way for fans of the show (at least the more technogeek oriented ones) to interact with the show (sortof) and give their input. Plus, Twitter gets advertised and more people may join. Good on them if this is a marketing scheme. SARAH already has over 2,000 followers and is herself following over 800 people, with 1 favorite.
SARAH, Jack and Zoe Carter's home
I’m following her, and you can too at http://twitter.com/_S_A_R_A_H_. While you’re at it, feel free to follow me as well http://twitter.com/FlyingDan.
