Whiz of the Web: Tuesday Torpedoes

The shapeless dough of the internet, formed into tasty pellets and baked to perfection, just for you.

• We mentioned the Grumpy Freak Show to you a while back; it's an art show displaying many Grumpy Bear vinyl dolls customized by artists into all kinds of cool shapes and characters. Well, the show's blog put up a great photo post on Friday with tons of pictures from the show (gotta love those Star Wars bears, especially Grumpy the Hutt there), and photos of all the bears are now up on Flickr. Remember, if you see anything you really love, you can always try to put a bid in on it! It's for charity, after all.
• Chris Kohler at Game|Life is back in Japan again, and happened to notice a huge crowd around a Taiko Drum Master machine (they're apparently up to number 8 already over there) while strolling through Akihabara. Turns out there was a freaking crazy Taiko Drum Master master performing there, playing the hardest song in the game in two-player mode by himself, using his own drumsticks which he had brought with him for the occasion. Watch the rather impressive video here. (Via)
• We present to you the Zippo camera lighter. Sure, it only takes VGA pics at 640 x480 res, but who cares?! It's a lighter with a camera in it. That's awesome! The camera's 64MB of memory can hold 30 photos, it runs on 1 AAA battery, and connects up to your PC via USB. Dare we say...that's hot?!
