Brace yourself! It’s weird/creepy doodad day for this edition of G’n'G:

  • For $279, the SAD clock promises to elevate the mood of those suffering from seasonal affective disorder. We’re not really sure what blue light is going to do in lieu of UV or natural sunlight, but who’s counting?
  • Not satisfied with your current approach to being a creeper? Perhaps the sleepy bunny webcam will help you achieve your goals. Ick.
  • The best use of USB ever comes in the form of this microscope with 200x magnification and 1600×1200 resolution.
  • A new coating developed by Rensselaer Polytechnic allows for photovoltaic cells to capture 96.2% of the sun’s rays from any angle. (We lied. This one is neither weird nor creepy).
  • Nothing spells “awesome” like a mask that molests your face in the name of comfort.
  • How about a robot controlled via WiFi by some Ruby code running on a jailbroken iPhone?

We don’t even want to know what evil could be done with the bunny and the microscope.
