Geeky yet Funny Comics

























I haven't laughed this hard in a long time: http://xkcd.com/ although my wife would probably not get a single one. Be warned, some of these have "colorful" language and themes. And some of them you may not get -- I'm not sure if anyone would get some of them.

My favorites: #153 (definitely), #208, #74 (shown here). What's yours?

USB Missile Launcher. Look a the picture. Software-controlled 3 missile launcher. Do I need to say anything more?

Super Etch-A-Sketch

To paraphrase RFK, "Some people see a project like this and think why? I see a project like this and think why didn't I do that?" Neil Fraser did it. He hooked a PC up to an Etch-A-Sketch. But he didn't stop at just twisting the knobs. Oh no, this rig can turn the unit over and shake it to erase!

Pretty cool if you ask me. His site has some other neat toys like an automatic combination lock opening device (but don't worry, it won't work if the lock is attached to something).

Oh yeah, and here's the fine print:
The Etch A Sketch product name and the configuration of the Etch A Sketch product are registered trademarks owned by The Ohio Art Company.
