Wake up to a Bacon cooking alarm clock

August 6th, 2008

This has got to be the best invention EVER.

From:mathlete.com

WHAT: An alarm clock that wakes you up with the smell and sizzle of cooking bacon.

WHY: No one likes to wake up, especially by an alarm. This clock gently wakes you up with the mouthwatering aroma of bacon, just like waking up on a Sunday morning to the smell of Mom cooking breakfast. Unless you’re Jewish.

HOW: A frozen strip of bacon is placed in Wake n’ Bacon the night before. Because there is a 10 minute cooking time, the clock is set to go off 10 minutes before the desired waking time. Once the alarm goes off, the clock it sends a signal to a small speaker to generate the alarm sound. We hacked the clock so that the signal is re-routed by a microchip that in responds by sending a signal to a relay that throws the switch to power two halogen lamps that slow-cook the bacon in about 10 minutes.

Find gas prices in your neighborhood on MSN

May 19th, 2008

MSN has a handy feature for finding out gas prices. Simply enter your zip code and a list of pump prices are listed. This is similar to Gas Buddy, if you’ve ever seen that site. From what I read in the newspaper over the weekend, Gas Buddy relies on users to report the gas prices as they change. MSN tracks prices based on what people are spending at each gas station. So, even though Gas Buddy might be slick, MSN’s just might be more accurate. Either way, they’re both handy little applications. Enjoy!
