Since Halo is coming out next week, anyone interested in a super-duper replica of a Master Chief costume?

You could consider this a small business technology effort on the sellers part. It just amazes me the amount of detail and time some people put into certain tasks to make a profit.

With Halo gone gold this week, I'm sure a lot of kids will be looking for a Halo costume for Halloween just to get into the spirit of things. However, this Halo costume is a bit extreme.

For most techies, digital frames are common place in their homes. I've found an interesting site that offers many sizes.

I've been looking around and pricing digital frames lately and I came across digitalframez.com. Whether you're looking for lcd digital frames, a digital picture frame, or even a remote-controlled digital frame, you'll definitely find a size that fits your corner table.

The site was well designed and I especially liked the quick currency exchange function. Select a different country and you see how much it is immediately.

Rock On, Man! Even without a Playstation or XBox.

Guitar Hero is one of those games you have to try just to see if you can. Just make sure you don't have anyone else around you. It's hilarious.

I have to admit that I liked playing Guitar Hero on the Playstation at my friends house and yes, I did look silly playing that guitar, swinging my arms and the guitar into the air.

Code Monkey's Unite! All programmers should use this as their theme song.

Jonathan Coulton previously was a programmer, but decided to pursue other avenues in his life.

One of his greatest songs, in my opinion, is Code Monkey. The song talks about basically a programmer's life and what he has to deal with everyday.
