Mokai Jet Propelled Kayak
Gadget King likes this gadget and isn’t above begging for a sample. (Dear Mokai, please send us a product sample for a detailed review, pleeeeaaase.), Enough of the shameless begging. The folks at Mokai have created a kayak that goes from good old fashioned human power to a jet-propelled kayak in less than one minute., […]
Somali Pirates Make Hijacking Videos
I realize that this isn’t exactly a gadget… but it is pretty interesting to me. And, the pirates have some pretty nice guns gadgets. The folks at Danger Room got their hands on video from some arsehole Somali Pirates. The video isn’t from the latest hijacking of US sea Captain Richard Phillips… but it gives […]
The Zero S Street Legal Electric Motorcycle
The folks at Zero Motorcycles have finally made a street legal motorcycle. They already own the electric dirt bike market. The bike is 100% electric, has a top speed of 60mph (bummer), 31 horsepower (similar to a 250cc gas bike), and fully charges in under 4 hours. I would own one today if I could […]
WTF is a PUMA?!
For years I’ve used the Segway as a sort of a milestone of humanity’s technological accomplishment in building something wickedly stupid, unnecessary and overrated – a remarkable blend of misplaced technological acumen and social ineptitude – a middle finger to common sense and “cool” if you will.

Apparently someone with good Photoshop and mad 3D animation software skills slapped together a “convincing” site complete with an animated concept video and a […]

Toyota MR2 Hybrid Sports Car
I have never been a fan of the Toyota MR2… and wasn’t sad to see it die in 2007. So, when I saw that Toyota was bringing it back as a hybrid I was skeptical… until I saw how cool it looked. The new MR2 hybrid will still be a two-seater but will no longer […]
World’s Longest Limousine
This 24 wheel limo is apparently the world’s largest limousine. The limo must be a pain in the arse to drive and park. There appears to a large hot tub or small swimming pool in the rear. Ghetto fabulous. Another picture after the break.
Kia Soul
The Korean car makers (Hyundai and Kia) are actually getting better at building reliable cars that people want. Reminds me of the Japanese car makers finally figuring out how to build nice cars through during the 80’s. Kia’s latest car the Kia Soul reminds me a bit of the Toyota Scion and has some pretty […]
