iPhone Headset
Gizmodo has a nice review of the current iPhone headsets available… a good place to start when I replace mine…

Russian Cyber Warfare
From Stratfor…
The Georgian news Web site Civil.ge claims that it is “under permanent DDOS attack,” referring to a distributed denial of service attack that attempts to overwhelm a server’s capacity. After assistance from Google and Estonian computer security experts, it is now being hosted temporarily on a Blogspot account.
While Cyber Warfare is not a new concept, this sounds like the first time switching your government’s website to Blogspot was the strategic response…

Cool Speakers
Neat… the latest version of the iPod alarm clock rotates with your iPod Touch… so you can watch your videos while the iPod is in landscape mode.
Note that it’s not for iPhones…

PowerDock
Ahh… what will they think of next?
“Available in two- or four-dock models, the charging station is designed for nerdy families like mine with multiple iPods, or perhaps just gadget freaks. It supports most every flavor of iPod and iPhone, with adapter inserts included, and it’s made of brushed metal which is always a lovely choice.
No word on a street date, but presumably it’s still on schedule for a release this month. The two-dock version will run $49.99 and the four-dock version will be $69.99.”

Pedia Crazy
In addition to the rather famous Wikipedia, there are others in the -pedia space… my favorites are Dealipedia and Congresspedia.
Dealipedia breaks down who made what on a given business deal… for example, who made money when CBS bought Last.fm.
Congresspedia brings crowd-sourcing to political watchdogging… read or contribute to what your local congressperson has been up to.
