The Lego minifig is a cultural icon, having been introduced in 1978, and remaining virtually unchanged for thirty years.
To see the evolution of the iconic figure, Gizmodo painstakingly collected and cataloged almost every minifig ever produced into a photographic timeline, and it’s a great look through the history of the fixed limb figure.

The battle between Apple and the unlockers rages on, with Apple launching the latest blow in the form of a firmware upgrade that bricks all unlocked iPhones. (Forever.)
For a timeline of the iPhone unlock done up in Star Wars style, check out Gizmodo for a very thorough rundown of what’s happened so far.

The Timeline Clock is an interesting concept where the date and time are shown on bands that scroll across the screen. It’s a unique way of displaying information, and somehow captivating, though you only really notice the seconds and minutes scrolling along (which does put the slow movement of everything else into perspective). If someone could figure out how, I’m sure this would make an amazing wristwatch. If you click on the clock, you can download Timeline and use it as a screensaver. Very cool.
