I know, I know, it doesn’t look real, but apparently some dude (François Knorreck) spent 10 years, 10,000 work hours and 15,000 Euros building the Snaefell, a motorcycle with the ultimate side car.  I was sort of hoping that the bike could detach from the side car and be independently propelled, but as you can see from the overhead shot it’s one complete body; a Unibody (wink) of sorts.  I have to question how well it handles, but considering its uniqueness does it really matter?

By now we’ve seen an almost endless array of alarm clocks that take a new fangled approach on the tried and tested classic ringing bell version.  My favorite still has to be the Blowfly that went from concept to actual product thanks to gadget blogs like this.

Much like the Earthquake Alarm Clock from two years ago, the Shake N Wake Alarm clock vibrates to awaken you from your slumber at a preset time.  It also includes an audible alarm and a wrist strip.

The Taga combines a high end stroller with, you guessed it, a bicycle.  But of course, like most high end strollers it’s not cheap; it starts at about $2,400.

So what else do you get for all that cash?  An aluminum frame, Shimano Nexus Inter-3 internal gear hub, disc brakes, Shimano Nexus roller brake and an average conversion (stroller to bike and vice versa) time of 20 seconds.

Looks a bit dangerous, what with the child’s seat in the front and all, but this would surely go down well with the stroller moms hear in Brentwood.

I can say right now that I have never really needed to use the web browser on my PS3.  Maybe because I have other ways to access the net.  For those of you who rely on your PS3 web browser will find it interesting that reports are coming in about Sony potentially bringing FireFox to the PS3.

While no deal has been struck at this juncture, it is a nice nugget of hype for PS3 owners to mull over.  The forever question still exists:  Why is there no browser on the Xbox 360?
