One step closer to Dejarik holochess...

A group of students at Carnegie Mellon University put together a modernized way of playing Dungeons & Dragons using the Microsoft Surface. Kind of makes you wonder what playing Battletech, Car Wars, or Warhammer 40,000 would have been like on this sort of gaming table. Definitely, would have saved a lot of paper. I'd still miss using my lucky set of dice, though.

Bear with me, I'm obsessed with stuff like this...

As you all know, my wife and I still have no kids, but we plan to some day, and because of that, I have this odd fascination with baby strollers and stroller technology. The Bugaboo Frog has become the "it" stroller for wealthy hipster couples and their infant offspring over the past couple of years or so. A stroll through any trendy metropolitan area will probably garner at least a few sightings of this Dutch invention or its updated brethren such as the Gecko or Cameleon along the sidewalks and streets. Now one would think I've fallen for yet another badge of overpriced yuppiedom that's more style than substance, but truth is, I find these strollers to be the equivalent to comparing fine European automobiles to their American counterparts. With it's well-thought out interchangeablility, foldability, and it's revolutionary shocks, the Bugaboo rolls like a sport-tuned BMW while some domestic baby ride looks like a Chevy Malibu. Honestly, what male couldn't love this stuff?

But what is one to do when traveling and portability is key? Before, you'd have to go buy something like a MacLaren, and sadly leave the technological advances of the Bugaboo at home while your baby bemoans the loss of his/her smooth-as-butter ride. Come September, though, not anymore 'cause Bugaboo will then release their new model, the Bee. Yeah, yeah, this video is a little gay, but check out those shocks, man! Check out the handling! Nice:
