These pages are a little hard to get around, but this site has some interesting mods and hacks for the new WoW Wee robot, the RoboRaptor. This project tutorial shows you how to add a new color LED to the controller and how to add a stealth mode by turning off the green LED, you know, so you can have your robo dino buddy sneak up on people.

Lifehacker has a nice HOW-TO on subscribing to del.icio.us feeds (a bookmark service of sorts) and getting videos in iTunes. The music and videos download automatically to iTunes, like a podcast would. The latest version of iTunes has better video support, so if you’re up for some random videos or want to have something specially download here’s how… [via] Link. I have a couple in our links, but I’ll try and add more soon now that’s more people can likely download content.
Wow, this BIG! The new iPods record in stereo! Voice recording settings: Low (22.05 KHz, mono) High (44.1 KHz, stereo). At least that’s what the spec page says. This is _great_ news for anyone who has wanted to use their iPod as a recorder, but didn’t like the idea of installing Podzilla, or recording at the crippled rate the older iPods are set at. Link.
Great site and custom bass pedals, Mike writes “Once I became disgusted with trying to find a great sounding distortion/fuzz pedal for bass guitar I decided that since i knew how to solder and basic circuitry I was going to build one instead. After many hours researching on internet sites and soldering away in my basement, I have come up with two pedals that I feel have a great vintage, yet over the top, tubey fuzz to them… without the loss of bass most distortion pedals give you. Then, much to my wife’s dismay, I began to build other pedals…” Thanks Star! Link.

I downloaded the new iTunes and as far as I can tell it will be able to put videos from a podcast feed (RSS 2.0, video blogs, vlogs…) on an iPod. While I don’t have a new iPod yet, it does list movies I’ve sent via MAKE’s podcast feed, so it looks like we might be able to deliver our own TV-like content without paying the $1.99 per video. Oh, exporting a video for iPod in Quicktime 7 worked fine. Link.
