Using an Xbox (1st generation) headset and a PSP headphone remote you can make your own headset for SOCOM PSP. You can likely use just about any type of headset, like the ones that come with cell phones too. Link.
Fun project for the kiddos “Geodesic domes are made of interlocking geometric shapes–often triangles. Because loads are spread over many triangles, these domes are especially strong. Often made of aluminum bars and plexiglass, they’re also light compared to ordinary domes. Geodesic domes were popularized by an American inventor named Buckminster Fuller (1895-1983). Look for the distinctive Bucky-ball shape in museums, greenhouses, alternative housing, and science centres. Vancouver’s Science World is a 47-metre tall geodesic dome made of 766 triangles.” Here’s how to make a geodesic club house… Link.
Coverbuddy is a really slick iTunes remote “Control your music remotely right on your Sony PSP – or from any other computer on the network, with any web browser!” [via] Link. If the $19 is too steep – WebRemote is another way to do this, $10 cheaper – but it’s more of a text interface.
“This is a tool to run homebrew EBOOT programs on your v2.0 PSP. It will not run on any other firmware version. It’s very much work in progress, but can load quite a lot of existing EBOOTs… later Tetris was released “…a simple Tetris clone, to experiment with the recent TIFF overflow exploit, and get used to the PSPSDK compiler tools. Just unzip the file into the root directory of a memory stick, then use the PSP photo viewer to open the “Tetris” folder…”Link.
MAKE Flickr photo pool member Chris Mckenna writes “I was inspired by Mister Jalopy’s MAKE volume 04 World’s Biggest MP3 Player article to hack together something from a thrift store bought console radio. No where near as complicated as the project described in the article, but perhaps interesting to some. It sounds pretty awesome.” Nice work! Link.
In MAKE 04 we featured some great kit gift ideas in the magazine, “Kits for the Holidays”. But we didn’t have room for all the kits we found, so here’s another round for elves with makers on their list. MAKE subscribers can log in and view the full article here…Link. We also have our own kit for taking high speed flash photography to capture high-speed events — A splash. Popping balloons. Breaking glass. It’s an amazing adjustable flash controller triggered by light or sound. Link.
Rocket writes in regarding our TiVo to iPod post“Notice that this will only work for PC-based iPods, and they mention that “TiVo subscribers will need to purchase special software to tap the features.” What? Pay extra for iPod support? A bunch of us got fed up with Tivo not supporting macintosh for the Tivo to Go. So we created TivoTool which already has video iPod support – all you need is a hacked tivo and a macintosh (well, and a video iPod.)”Link.
