Posted: 10 Dec 2011 11:20 PM PST

A real fancy contraption has been doing the rounds lately. It’s the Periodic Table of Swearing, which is inspired by the real world periodic table, except this time it’s full of abbreviated swear words instead of elements. Want to guess what Fo stands for? Anyway, seen below is the Table in its latest incarnation. It used to be just a graphic, but now a design firm and the Table’s makers–Jon Link and Mick Bunnage–have turned it into an interactive gadgetron.

Pope Benedict XVI Goes Android To Light Giant Christmas Tree

Posted: 10 Dec 2011 11:01 PM PST

In an exercise that dispels the myth that the papacy is behind the times, Pope Benedict XVI activated a giant Christmas Tree light display in the faraway town of Gubbio with an Android tablet. How is this news important? First, it’s a publicity boost for Android. Second, maybe the fact that blessed holy hands are upon a touchscreen (Sony Tablet S) gives the gadget a saintly aura. Maybe, just maybe. Also: Horrors! He’s not using an iPad! That’s right, the Pope is rocking a Sony. The real high tech part that out-geek’s cutting edge Silicon Valley is the Pope’s little viral stunt happened over a live feed where he watched the Christmas tree light up.

Posted: 10 Dec 2011 10:45 PM PST

Long story short, a designer and an engineer teamed up to create an elite class coffee brewer that’s supposedly one of a kind. The resulting product is the Espro Fresh. Wrapped in stainless steel and featuring vacuum insulation and micro-filters (patent pending), the Espro Fresh would rank as best of breed except for the fact that it’s such a new product. So new, that the creators Bruce Constantine and Chris McLean have gone Kickstarter to raise funds for a larger version. See, the Espro Fresh pictured below only manages a handful of cups tops.
