EA is releasing a game later this quarter called Dante’s Inferno which is getting a lot of sub-advertising it seems… Wonder if it’s going to be any good. EA has set up multiple websites and hidden tricks and hints all over the interwebs regarding their next big game. Recently digg.com had a little hidden trick up its sleve in its source code. Screenshot above of the ASCII Art that was embeded into the source. I did some digging (no pun intended) and found the site it pointed to required 5 additional passwords to the one that is with the image above, but I located them! Hit the jump for the 6 passwords and a little more info about http://hellisnigh.com/

Meh… it’s alight I suppose. I’ve had bigger better light shows in my back yard for the neighbours with a flashlight and some yarn though. Sorry, You’ll have to settle with what the second-tallest freestanding object looks like with fireworks strapped to the side of it, because I’m certainly not strapping fireworks onto my schlong!

Well how interesting is this!? Apparently all it takes is the renaming of any folder on your computer to a neat little string and you’ve got yourself GodMode. It has nearly every option you could ever need in one folder once completed. No comment from Microsoft directly yet about the ‘feature’ but it’s still pretty neat.

To enter “GodMode,” one need only create a new folder and then rename the folder to the following:

GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

As a side note, this does work in Vista, but it’s only suggested to use the trick on 32 bit versions of the OS as it can cause some unstability otherwise.

In an effort to be creative and fun, this team of looney-bin’s decided to manually change a digital clock made of wood for 24 hours. Sure it looks cool, and I’m sure you’d think it was pretty sweet if you were on the project until 5 minutes into it… Then you’d be like “God I hate my job!”. Okay someone do the math for me please, how many boards did they move in total?

All the rumours that have been floating around the interwebs about Google ‘improving’ their search engine are true! Here’s how you can see the new functionality for yourself too…

1. Click this link [here]. it may not appear to change your page, but this link sets a cookie on your machine that grants you access to the Google Beta.
2. Go to http://www.google.com/ (if redirected to a country specific version of Google you’ll need to click Goto Google.com in the bottom right corner of the webpage). If your browser accepted the cookie, you should be able to see the new version of Google

Unfortunetly the cookie doesn’t let you hit 100% of the functionality yet… or any of the not.com version of Google, like Google.ca or Google.co.uk. It’s still neat to use though.

Thanks to Matt Karolian for the Tip on this one!

Being a loyal blackberry user myself, it’s not often that an iPhone app catches my attention but this one deserves some recognition. The idea is that you hold it up to your face and it speaks for you in a language that you can’t! Simple right? Exactly. The best part is that its a sponsored app, which makes it completely free. For those of you with iPhone/iTouches you can try it out now in the app store… of if you’re not quite sure, check the video above.
