Nerd Bastards has a copy of a large infographic filled with trivia about Star Wars. It's a promotional feature for OnlineSchools.org designed by Ellie Koning.
A Muppet version of Star Wars would be intriguing. The Ewoks are fairly obvious. But who would play Emperor Palpatine?

CBS has created an app that makes an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch resemble a classic Star Trek communicator:
The design replicates the original series communicator seen used by Kirk and his crew and the app comes with sounds from the original Star Trek, and it even ‘opens up’ when you flick your wrist. It has a paging function that allows for interactive role playing and a full dialer page that allows access to your personal contacts.
At the link, you can view a video of the app in action.

Do you have a problem with people at work taking you to seriously? Are you tired of folks at business conventions thinking that you're a professional? Well, then, good news! There's a business called Superhero Cards that produces business cards that suggest that you're a superhero.
Okay, I'm being too cynical. Actually, I think that if you pitch it right, it's a clever idea. Sort of like the artist who made his resume look like a Dungeons & Dragons character sheet.

Capcom Unity user Shockwave 3000 shot this simply adorable cosplayer... somewhere. Presumably at a cosplay competition. But if it was like, at a school or mall and this kid's parents think that it's a good idea to dress one's child as Chun Li...well, that would be awesome!
My mom sewed a piece of velcro onto an old blue towel. That was my Batman outfit. I had tremendous fun running around the neighborhood pretending to be the Dark Knight. Still, it was a pretty lame outfit compared to this one. But I guess that at twenty-eight, I should have made my own Batman costume.
