Are light reactive tattoos the next big thing in the ink-scene? Not sure, but man some of these tattoos look amazing.

Video of Kiefer Sutherland taking out a Christmas tree
Being huge fans of 24, we’re always up for some fun Kiefer gossip and even though this video makes the rounds every other month, we still can’t get enough of Kiefer diving head first into a giant Christmas tree.

Build your own USB controlled dancefloor
Super nerd or the coolest nerd on your block? A .NET hacker took on the task of building his own dancefloor in his living room with the kicker being a USB controlled lighting system built-in.
