Nitrov8 sent in this video of an amusing take on the national anthem.

TheReg report on a flying car spotted near Perth in Google Earth. Fortunately, our forums have the explanation.

TechReport have checked out the Gigabyte i-RAM storage device. Just populate the card with memory, plug it into an available PCI slot, attach a Serial ATA cable to your motherboard, and you've got yourself a solid-state hard drive.

Prohardver have an interview with ATI's "3D Architect and Design Manager".. actually that's from December, but still interesting. Beyond3D meanwhile have another interview with ATI, about R580 / X1900 architecture.

Google's top execs are still only being paid $1 a year.. but they have made some money on their stock holdings. As a result, his total wealth in shares is roughly $6.3 billion.

AMD have claimed their highest market share in years. AMD now accounts for 21.4 percent of all desktop, notebook and server processors using the x86 instruction set that were shipped during the fourth quarter, Mercury Research plans to announce next week. They also dropped CPU prices a few days ago. ProcessorBlog have their thoughts posted and also cover AMD's secret weapon from Innovative Silicon.

From hmsv: The ASX Stock Exchange Game opens for registrations on the 30th of January. This OCAU thread gives more information.

Gary_J noticed microsoft's high-definition content showcase has been updated with a few more videos.

Apparently there'll be no booth babes at this year's E3 conference. TheTechZone have their take on this news.

ArsTechnica consider the Google video store progress. The Google Video Store may have launched more than two weeks ago, but it's still clearly not ready for primetime.

We've seen this before but it's quite fun, a website that will guess the dictator or sitcom character you're thinking of. It got 3 from 3 for me.

From Darkness: "Project Offset" (working title) is a game like no other first person shooter to date. We wanted to make an FPS set in a epic fantasy world. A game where you can choose one of many character classes. A game where clans can combat over mission based objectives and be ranked accordingly. A game where you can play alone, coop, team based objective or deathmatch. Here's the download page for the movies and here's info on the game. Readers MUST download the trailer video as it is simply astonishing.
