After four months, I’m selling my World of Warcraft account. Getting my Warlock to Level 60 took 15 days of solid playing time, and made me lose focus on other things. The Matrix Online only kept me busy for a few weeks when it came out last year, but WoW was different, somehow the repetitive grind night after night appealed to me at the time. Instead, I’ve decided to take up EVE Online because of the giant battleships and amazing scenery!. It won’t be as time consuming as WoW, because your skills level constantly, whether you’re playing the game or not.

Songtapper.com lets you tap the spacebar in time to a piece of music, then finds songs that match the beat you tapped. I can't get it to work after four tries, so I think it needs some refining…

HoloPhonic.ch has a spatial MP3 file which makes you feel like there's a guy shaking a matchbox standing behind you. You have to use headphones to feel it properly, speakers work, but not as well. There were a few times that I seriously expected someone to tap me on the shoulder.

UK-based Selfridges has opened an iPod school an upmarket part of London, even though the manufacturer does it for free in its shop just round the corner.

Clueless music lovers who have embraced the trendy new technology but not the know-how can pay 65 pounds ($150) for a 40-minute lesson at Selfridges, on the popular Oxford Street shopping haunt.

I can understand how some idiots need lessons in checking email, but £65 for lessons in using an iPod?! There are only four buttons!

The Optimus keyboard has hundreds of tiny OLEDs embedded in the keys, making the whole keyboard a sort of dynamic display. You can change what's displayed on the keys, meaning you can switch between keyboard layouts instantly. The Optimus keyboard also lets you display pictures in some apps, instead of using the toolbar, you can press the key on your keyboard!

No word on price yet, but I'd expect this to sell for at least $200 when it's released. The designer's website also has some weird designs, including an arrow shaped mouse which is apparently 'in stores now'.

What is OLED technology?
