The first spyshots of the new 2010 Porsche 998 have been taken on the famous Nurburgring in Germany, where the first prototype was tested recently.
The 998 mule is wearing modified 997 body work, with the addition of blistered wheel arches hinting at a widened track and a makeshift wing providing additional downforce. The 998 911 is expected to debut in late 2010.

Busy week, sorry… So, there we are. Back in the world of gadgets, videos, gossip, music, sex, toys, and strange fusions out of all of the latter. How great, that some people still focus on good design: Mike and Maaike, two guys from San Francisco, do just that. They are the creative duo behind the Google G1, fabulous furniture and the XBox 360. All three categories highly – and most honorably – qualify them to be a squeeq essential.

Thanks Max

Looking for niches throughout the internet, it is probably quite rare that you feel that there is a strong need for a particular website totally new to the world. Since battle scenes and warfare videos are gaining more and more popularity on video sites like YouTube, some productive soldiers founded BattleSEEN.com, a video sharing site limited to battlefield and warfare videos shot exclusively by soldiers themselves. Whether you like it or not, another niche is filled and the videos are real on the first military video tube.

He came, he saw, he conquered! We congratulate Lewis Hamilton to Formula 1 World Championship, making him the youngest champion ever.

This is all over the news and I just cannot believe it:

Toronto (AP) – Sarah Palin unwittingly took a prank call Saturday from a Canadian comedian posing as French President Nicolas Sarkozy and telling her she would make a good president someday. “Maybe in eight years,” replies a laughing Palin.
