A great video about 9 year-old Caine who built an elaborate arcade out of cardboard boxes (located in his dad’s used auto parts store). Unfortunately, Caine had no customers. Then one day, the internet organized a surprise to make his day.
Just goes to show you can’t beat a bit of cardboard and a childs imagination!
You can find out more about Caine on his website.
A bit of old news but pretty impressive the video depicts what a day in the life of a Google glasses-wearer would be like. Shown literally through the eyes of a of the wearer, it all starts with the glasses booting up. A series of icons flash into his field of vision, Terminator-style. He checks his calendar and the weather, chats and shares photos with friends.
Will be interesting to see how this develops!

Two years since we posted about Microsoft’s Courier Tablet the guys over at TechRepublic have an interesting article here on the Courier and why it never came to launch.
I think if the tablet had been launched Microsoft may well have gone on to conquer the tablet market place!
The video above shows even more of its planned capabilities, maybe some of this will be incorporaetd in the Windows 8 tablets.
