US company, Super Talent, has launched what it’s claiming is the world’s thinnest 256GB solid state drive (SSD).
The snappily named FSD56GC25H uses an industry standard 2.5in hard drive form factor and a SATA-I interface, making it fully interchangeable with regular 2.5in SATA hard drives. The drive uses the company’s own stacking technology to fit the 256GB in a slim case measuring just 12.5mm thick – 40% thinner than rival 256GB SSDs, the company claimed.

Another day, another game furore. This time though it’s not about splitting heads open with an axe but becoming the best bimbo you can be, girlfriend.
The online game is a virtual fashion world that allows those that register – mostly young girls – the chance to create their own highly customised character, starting off with a bimbo in underwear.
OK, you might think it’s a bit tame for all the stink it’s raising but players are allowed to use boob jobs, facelifts and diet pills to customise their bimbos. Since the people that play it are mainly 9-16-year olds, you can see why there’s a bit of gasping going on.

Those wacky Japanese. Robots are becoming more common in everyday life in the Land of the Rising Sun but now they’ve created a robot to baby-sit your kids while you shop.
Aeon, a major retailer in the city of Fukuoka, has brought in a 1.4m tall yellow and white robot, developed by Tmusk, to keep the rugrats happy while the parents spend their money without all the usual coat-pulling and tantrums.

With the prospect of decent weather on the way, it’s time to buy stuff for the garden that doesn’t involve working in the garden.
This is the TreePee, an ingenious product that claims it’s a tent, treehouse, swing and even a very lo-tech virtual surfing/snowboarding device rolled into one. The shape gives away the name but, unlike other tents, this one hangs from a tree branch and can be used as a swing or treehouse.
