A bar in London, UK has taken connectivity a step further by introducing urine-controlled video games at the Men’s urinals. Users aim at infrared sensors in the urinal to control what’s happening on the LCD screen mounted above the urinal.
The game features advertisements which play before and after the game which have generated a 40 to 50 percent rise in sales of certain products.
Captive Media, the company behind the video game, claims the trial of the game has been a success.
According to the Cambridge Network, Captive Media will roll-out the product across selected bars from early 2012.

23 Jan 2012Using a MAC and need to Share drives with a PC ?
Disk Utility has you covered.
To simply create a drive you can read and write to on a MAC and PC, back up any data already on the drive, then open Disk Utility in Applications > Utilities. Select the drive in the sidebar and click the Erase tab. In the Format pull-down menu, choose MS-DOS (FAT) if the drive is under 32GB, or ExFAT if the drive is larger.
Name the drive something clever, then click the Erase button to apply the new format. Don’t forget that Windows won’t recognize files larger than 4GB on the drive – a limitation not shared with NTFS-formatted volumes.

You should feel good about your Inbox during the workday, using it as a tool to help you stay on top of things and remind you about what’s coming up. Email should be a way for you to keep up with people who are important to you and a way to exchange information you care about. Sometimes a message will make you laugh, sometimes it will teach you something new, and sometimes it will be the answer to a prayer. So go ahead. Embrace your email.

Swarmanoid is a heterogeneous robot swarm in which different groups of robots have different capabilities: some robots are specialized in manipulating objects and climbing, some in moving on the ground and transporting objects, and some in flying and observing the environment from above.
Engineers have done some amazing things with robots lately, from mini-helicopters that can play ping pong to digital butlers that grab you a beer from the fridge. So the mundane task of library work might not seem too exciting, but it makes for an award-winning video
The robots communicate by flashing their LED lights and using infrared sensors to gauge distance.
