Song Safari
I have discovered a new use for my smartpen!
Stuck in the car with nothing but the pen and a notebook, I turned on the radio and was struck with inspiration. When the next song started I hit record on the pen and drew a little triangle, a circle around it, and then wrote the title of the song. When the song was done recording I stopped recording.
Now, if I ever want to listen to that song on my pen, I just have touch that little "Play" symbol I drew when the song began. One can develop quite the song collection!

LEGO Minifig Dimensions
After an infuriating search online for the dimensions of the LEGO minifig (LEGO man), I finally caved and just modeled it myself and decided to put the dimensions online.
This is not completely comprehensive, specifically (and most noticeably) it is missing arms and hands. Also, there's no top/bottom view so you can't see the shell/wall thickness. BUT, this should be sufficient for any type of profile/modeling job right up until the arms. The issue with the arms is that there are all sorts of lofts and things that I haven't had the time to mess with yet. I will though, no worries, the dwgs will just be much uglier.
Enjoy! Share with your friends, I'm pretty sure these are the only LEGO minifigs on the entire Internet. Woo-hoo for monopolizing!

Play-Testing the Rubik's Cube Touch
So, here's the deal. Remember that new fancy Rubik's cube I just blogged about the other day? Well, it's being premiered at Toy Fair 2009 in New York this next week and, like last year, I've pulled some strings, begged the right people, and will be attending.
I'll make sure to hunt this thing down, play with it, take some pictures, and let you all know what I think.
