"Gadgets, Technology, Public speaking and IT from an undergraduate's perspective."

I especially like Alvin's post on Cool Inventions / Gadgets That Make Life Easier, highlighting such gadgets as "transparent toaster" and "toilet seat lifter".

The Daily Galaxy: News from Planet Earth & Beyond

At first glance, you'd expect The Daily Galaxy to be predominately about space. Not so. As the blog's description states:

The Daily Galaxy: News from Planet Earth & Beyond, is an eclectic text and video presentation of fascinating news and original insights on science, space exploration, technology, and their reflections in popular culture (film, books, events).

Eclectic is no exaggeration. From The Simpsons, Woody Allen and the possibility that humans may one day be kept as pets by "human friendly" artificial intelligence, to online social network sites, human evolution, politically hard wired brains and giant spider webs, this blog leaves virtually no stone in the galaxy unturned.
