Mysterious robots of all shapes and sizes invade parts of US



The invasion has begun! Robots of all shapes and sizes like this one in the picture above have been spotted in various parts of the US. No one knows where they come from or where they are heading to. Some videos below.



These group of smaller robots were spotted traveling on the subway in America. The video says: "Something big is happening at a secret location, and these robots are making their way there. These robots have shown signs of advanced artificial intelligence."



Another sighting reported is this one-armed robot hitting the streets.

Donald Trump's crazy tweets used in Hitler parody video



Like many people all over the world, I was watching the US Presidential Election results live on TV and also following it on Twitter. When it was announced that Obama had won, Donald Trump went on a Twitter tirade, apparently very unhappy with the result. My first reaction was, why not use his crazy tweets on a Hitler parody video. So here's what I did. Enjoy.

In the video above, Hitler reacts to CNN announcing Barack Obama has won the US Presidential election beating Mitt Romney. Featuring tweets by Donald Trump! This video is a parody of Downfall, a 2004 drama film directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel, depicting the final ten days of Adolf Hitler's reign of Nazi Germany in 1945.

Exploding toys and stuff photographed with very fast flash

Alan Sailer loves shooting stuff in his garage with a pellet rifle and photographing the results with a home built flash. Check out his Explosions photoset on Flickr. Here is a pic of My Little Pony during the explosion in its head. Alan says: "I actually wish this had been taken a few microseconds later. But it's still pretty creepy. It fun messing with the iconic images of childhood this way."

Popinator shoots pop corns into your mouth

I'm not really sure if this thing is real but the Popinator is brilliant marketing by Popcorn Indiana, a company that sells popcorn. The Popinator is the world’s first fully automated, voice activated popcorn shooter triggered by the word "pop". It pinpoints where in the room the spoken word originated from and shoots a popcorn at it. It can shoot up to 15 feet. I want one!

Skittles Sorting Machine sorts Skittles so you don't have to

The Skittles Sorting Machine was built by Brian Egenriether. It's main purpose is to sort Skittles! He writes: " An IR LED and phototransistor are used to stop the turnstile in position. I fabricated may of the parts from epoxy including the body, the turnstile, the chute header, etc. The base is wood and the funnel is from a hummingbird feeder."

Images from Google Satellite View used in artistic prints

Jenny Odell used images that she got from Google Satellite View for her impressive artistic digital prints called Satellite Collections. She writes: " I collect things that I've cut out from Google Satellite View-- parking lots, silos, landfills, waste ponds. The view from a satellite is not a human one, nor is it one we were ever really meant to see." (Thanks Mike)

Collection of Airline Baggage Labels

Airline Timetable Images, a website devoted to the collecting of airline timetables, has a special section with images of airline baggage labels from all over the world. I like this one by Royal Nepal Airlines. It shows the elusive Yeti serving drinks.
