Scarves for Tech Addicts
21st June 2006
These scarves are developed by a graduation student, Joe Malia. A scarf which you tech addicts can wear to have some privacy in public places. Or for some perverts to watch porn privately in public areas. One innovation many ideas. By the way, there’s a scarf for people who need some privacy on their desktops too. Maybe i’ll wait till it comes for notebooks ;). Check out one more pic after the jump.

Could be useful for photography. Some LCD screens are near imposible to see during daylight.

Actually he’s hiding his face because he badly needs a new dye job.

Should advertise it as ‘fastest way to get beaten senseless and robbed if used in a city during off-hours’
“DISCLAIMER: may be urinated on as follow-up degradation, offender citing ‘how stupid he looked’ in defense of his actions”

Great opportunity for muggers to subdue victims and secure their expensive laptop/pda/pmp at the same time!
June 23rd, 2006 at 9:44 am
scarves for tech addicts, eh? perhaps for those who don’t mind being snuck up on and scared shitless, or being oblivious of being silently mocked by everyone in sight. oh, and it would help to be totally touch-familiar with your keyboard.
now, please check my solution to the unseen screen of the laptop outdoors in the daytime which also has an element of privacy but which does not shut out the world. i call it the outdoor office. oh, and it’s a carry case. (recently seen on jay leno during “pitch to america”)

Excellent! I can now watch porn in the bus. And at the same time I wont be able to see the reactions of the people around me when they see me wearing this “cloth”!
Somebody should film the reactions of bystanders!

[…] Cansado de que la gente te mire mal por la calle sólo por contemplar porno en tu PSP cerca de una guardería? Harto de esas miradas de “qué infantil” por jugar a un plataformas 2D? Gracias a este burka videojueguil, esos molestos problemas causados por “la gente” se acabarán de una vez por todas, no hay más que mirar la imágen para entender cómo funciona. La época donde tenías que retirarte a un desierto o comenzar a matar transeúntes para poder hacer esas actividades en público se han acabado. […]

If I was walking down the street and noticed someone wearing that I would mug them.

You go ahead and get one… I’ll be the one laughing when you get mugged 3 days a week…
June 24th, 2006 at 5:05 am
hmm, as aesthetically pleasing and über futuristic as these appear to be, I’m not impressed (just yet)
Is it just me or are these users just asking for a mugging?

They’ll never be able to see who mugged them for their PSP/PDA/NDS! Awesome!

[…] Bene per passare a qualcosa di meno tedioso vi do modo di farvi qualche risata con alcune follie partorite dalla mente umana. Incominciamo con questo annuncio apparso sul sito di aste E-bay. Lo so, non è una novità che si trovino in vendita le amenità più assurde..ma questa rientra a pieno nella categoria e la volevo segnalare..Per tutti i fans di Britney Spears (ha anche dei fan..questa forse è la cosa più assurda di tutte!) era possibile fino a qualche giorno indietro, fare un'offerta per accaparrarsi un panino addentato dalla famosa cantante. Oltre al sandwich veniva consegnato anche una specie di hot dog sempre masticato da Britney. Probabilmente qualcuno se lo sarà già portato a casa. Per rimanere nel campo delle star su celebsafari gli utenti possono uplodare le proprie foto in compagnia di personaggi famosi..a cosa servirà poi.. Molto utile sembra essere invece questo gadget: niente più password criptate, firewall e controllo degli accessi, perchè grazie a questo pratico sistema proteggerete i vostri dati da occhi indiscreti e manterrete intatta la vostra privacy. Usate questo gadget per portarlo con voi e non passerete di certo inosservati. Per concludere il consiglio finale: se non sapete fare nulla o volete imparare qualcosa di nuovo cercate qualche attività da fare su Videojug.com. Non rimarrete delusi, ce n'è per tutti i gusti!..alla prossima gente! […]

[…] Here’s a Japanese game called Dokidoki Majosaiban which means “Exciting Witch Trial” in simple English. The theme of the game is to find if the girl is witch or not by fondling her private parts. Well, this game has a weird concept but if it is a success we may also see a Wii version too. More unsafe pics here and one recommendation…don’t forget to put this scarf if you are playing in public.
