Smallest Car

Proving that things were way cooler back in the day, is the world's first computer mouse. Made by Douglas Engelbart in 1964, it "consisted of two gear-wheels positioned perpendicular to each other -- allowing movement on one axis." Just look at this thing. Ergonomic shape, great button placement -- and it's made of wood. If that ain't style, then I don't know what is. Sure the front has rotted out, but who cares. My mouse looks like that, and it's brand new. That's just what happens when porn doesn't download fast enough and you start slamming the mouse on the desk.



One more of the underside after the jump.

The worlds first laptop looked a little different than the ones we’re used to today.

The Osbourne 1, introduced to the world April 1981 boasted a 5 inch monitor, 64k of RAM, dual 5-1/4 inch, 91K floppy drives, weighed in at 24.5 pounds and had a sticker price of only $1795.00. A steal, considering it came bundled with over $1500 worth of cutting edge software (circa 1981).

Available options were a 300 baud modem and an optional double density disk drives (for which an extra circuit board had to be installed) .



The Osbourne 1 was quite a hit and a brisk seller, reaching monthly sales of over $1,000,000 in September of that year.



Ok, laptop is probably not the word to use when describing this thing

 What was the world's first .com?

Just what would the site with the world's longest domain name be without mentioning what the world's first dot com was

Now were sure many of you think you know and some really do know, but those that think it was think.com better think again, think.com was the third...we think.

The DNS was created in 1984 and in 1985 top level domains were defined. The first top level domains were COM, ORG, EDU, GOV, MIL and ccTLD.

In April 1985 cmu.edu, purdue.edu, rice.edu and ucla.edu were the first registered domain names.

The first .gov was css.gov and was registered in June 1985.

The first .org was mitre.org and was registered in July 1985.

Now for the first .com which was registered on March 15 1985 and it was symbolics.com which still happens to be up and running, although not much to look at.

Now for the first 100 registered domains:

People will often say they know somethin­g "like the back of their hand" to indicate that they're familiar with it top to bottom. But how much do you actually know about your own body? We've got 16 tidbits that may surprise you.



1: Tongue Print


D­on't stick out your tongue if you want to hide your identity. Similar to fingerprints, everyone also has a unique tongue print!


2: Shedding


Your pet isn't the only one in the house with a shedding problem. Humans shed about 600,000 particles of skin every hour. That works out to about 1.5 pounds each year, so the average person will lose around 105 pounds of skin by age 70.



3: Bone Count


An adult has fewer bones than a baby. We start off life with 350 bones, but because bones fuse together during growth, we end up with only 206 as adults.



4: New Stomach


Did you know that you get a new stomach lining every three to four days? If you didn't, the strong acids your stomach uses to digest food would also digest your stomach.



5: Scent Remembering


Your nose is not as sensitive as a dog's, but it can remember 50,000 different scents.



6: Long Intestines


The small intestine is about four times as long as the average adult is tall. If it weren't looped back and forth upon itself, its length of 18 to 23 feet wouldn't fit into the abdominal cavity, making things rather messy.



7: Bacteria


This will really make your skin crawl: Every square inc­h of skin on the human body has about 32 million bacteria on it, but fortunately, the vast majority of them are harmless.



8: Source of Body Odor


Th­e source of smelly feet, like smelly armpits, is ­sweat. And people sweat buckets from their feet. A pair of feet have 500,000 sweat glands and can produce more than a pint of sweat a day.


9: Sneeze Speed


The air from a human sneeze can travel at speeds of 100 miles per hour or more -- another good reason to cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze -- or duck when you hear one coming your way.


10: Blood Distance

Blood has a long road to travel: Laid end to end, there are about 60,000 miles of blood vessels in the human body. And the hard-working heart pumps about 2,000 gallons of blood through those vessels every day.


11: Saliva Quantity


You may not want to swim in your spit, but if you saved it all up, you could. In a lifetime, the average person produces about 25,000 quarts of saliva -- enough to fill two swimming pools!


12: Snore Loudness


By 60 years of age, 60-percent of men and 40-percent of women will snore. But the sound of a snore can seem deaf­ening. While snores average around 60 decibels, the noise level of normal speech, they can reach more than 80 decibels. Eighty decibels is as loud as the sound of a pneumatic drill breaking up concrete. Noise levels over 85 decibels are considered hazardous to the human ear.


13: Hair Color and Count


Blondes may or may not have more fun, but they definitely have more hair. Hair color helps determine how dense the hair on your head is, and blondes (only natural ones, of course), top the list. The average human head has 100,000 hair follicles, each of which is capable of producing 20 individual hairs during a person's lifetime. Blondes average 146,000 follicles. People with black hair tend to have about 110,000 follicles, while those with brown hair are right on target with 100,000 follicles. Redheads have the least dense hair, averaging about 86,000 follicles.



14: Nail Growth


If you're cli­pping your fingernails more often than your toenails, that's only natural. The nails that get the most exposure and are used most frequently grow the fastest. Fingernails grow fastest on the hand that you write with and on the longest fingers. On average, nails grow about one-tenth of an inch each month.


15: Head Weight


No wonder babies have such a hard time holding up their heads: The human head is one-quarter of our total length at birth but only one-eighth of our total length by the time we reach adulthood.


16: Need for Sleep


If you say that you're dying to get a good night's sleep, you could mean that literally. You can go without eating for weeks without succumbing, but eleven days is tops for going without sleep. After eleven days, you'll be asleep -- forever!

USB drives keep getting smaller and smaller. For your viewing pleasure: the Wink. Advertised as the world’s smallest USB drive, it really is quite diminutive.

Ideal for attaching to a keychain or necklace, or smuggling out of a secure data facility in on your body, the Wink is a just solid piece of plastic with contacts on it, providing the minimal hardware required in order to connect to a USB port. Oddly though, it looks almost exactly like a Verbatim Tough-n-Tiny.

They’re available now from your favorite retailer; the flavors it comes in are 2GB for $7.95, 4GB for $10.95, 8GB for $19.95, and 16GB for $37.95

Originally made by Austrian watchmakers as decorative pocket watch chain fobs or as cufflinks, these miniature pinfire pistols are now prized collector's items. These are some from my own collection dating from 1904 to the 1970's. All of them fire 2mm blank pinfire cartridges. The revolvers are the world's smallest working double action blank firing pistols. They measure just 38mm in length and are smaller than the famous Swiss Mini Gun which measures 55mm.
