Digital Portable Bike Lane

Digital Portable Bike Lane

January 12, 2009

This is what I’m talking about… screw the bike lane. If I wanted to be confined to a lane, I could just drive a car! Aside from the obvious health and environmental reasons for bicycling, for me the main point of being on a bike is having the freedom to go wherever you want, no? [...]

January 9, 2009

Check out this mean little crib in between some mammoth old buildings in Poland. The space looks a lot bigger than the exterior would suggest, even with the dark interior. Story and photos here.

SL Black Series

SL Black Series

December 23, 2008

As a car manufacturer, when the recession hits and supercars are being unloaded for half-price, naturally the strategic next step is to drop an even more ridiculous model than the last. If the CLK isn’t enough for you, there’s a second Black Series coming to the US. More than twice the price of the CLK [...]

CLK Black Series

CLK Black Series

December 21, 2008

Those of you Defgrip readers who are automobile enthusiasts are probably already well-acquainted with the Mercedes CLK 63 AMG Black Series.

Ruf Electric 911

October 14, 2008

On average I’d say that Jim Bauer and I send each other about 15-20 Porsche- and Mercedes-related emails per day. Here’s the latest one I received: News that esteemed Porsche tuner Ruf has unveiled their electric 911 concept. There are some electric Porsches of the vintage variety already out there, but it’s cool to see [...]

Mac Vs PC, PC Using an iPhone

September 18, 2008

I just came across this on the ISO50 blog… So funny! The person who posted the blog, Jakob was on the train in New York and just happened to see the actor who plays PC in the commercials… He didn’t really think much, but then PC pull out an iPhone… So rad! Check out a [...]

Air Sharing

September 12, 2008

I just downloaded the most useful app for my iPhone I’ve messed with so far. It’s called Air Sharing and it enables your phone to be used a hard drive by connecting to devices wirelessly. I downloaded it, set it up, and transferred files super quick. Once you have it all setup, if you are [...]
