Caffeine with Your Shower?
Getting that extra shot of caffeine has gone beyond the coffee house into the shower. You can now buy Shower Shock, a caffeinated soap bar that delivers its zing while you lather up.

Looking for a Blogging Tool?
While all blogging platforms provide a web-based interface to create and manage posts, I prefer a dedicated desktop blogging app. These apps make it easier to add links, spell check, tag posts, change dates, and more. My primary apps are Ecto and MarsEdit.
But if you’re looking at other blogging apps, check out this review of 15 desktop blogging tools covering both Windows and Mac apps.

Alien Ninja Is Tech Savvy
I didn’t realize that an Alien Ninja would also be wise in the ways of earthly technologies, especially this thing we call the Internet. His alienninja.tv web site continues to chug along, now adding a soundtrack.
As the Ninja’s quest for the Fiery Lotus goes on, he now has an accompanying weblog at alienninja.net. Ninja gear anyone? Not yet anyways as the Ninja is still constructing this site. Wow, the Alien Ninja is one busy dude.
Hey look, shoutouts to Pulpconnection and behind the scenes sword action on YouTube.

Alien Ninja Viral Attack?
So as a MySpace friend of the Alien Ninja, I got a comment from my pal saying:
I demand you tell me anything you know of the Master and the Fiery Lotus!!!
Might be the beginning of the viral campaign to make this xenophobe famous.
The Fiery Lotus reminds me of the Last Starfighter’s Death Blossom maneuver. Maybe the Alien Ninja is distantly related to the Last Starfighter’s co-pilot, Grig?

Tag That Song. SHAZAM!
Ever hear a song and wonder what it is? If you don’t get text in the airwaves, then what? Shazam!
Shazam is a free iPhone app that records music, analyzes it, and tells you the name of the song in seconds. And it works! I don’t know how, but it does.
I tested Shazam at the Farm Fair at Bishop Museum over the weekend. Power 104.3’s KC and Taka were the emcees, and the radio station pumped out contemporary tunes. I held up my iPhone, started Shazam, and the app started recording. After about 20 seconds, Shazam correctly identified the song as Rihanna’s Umbrella.
Neato!

Bobby Brown Sat at the Bar…
R&B music legend Bobby Brown sat at the bar as I circled around unsure if that was really him. What was he doing at the poolside bar in the early afternoon?
Could it really be him? Don’t Be Cruel… My Prerogative… Roni… Every Little Step… Humpin’ Around… Rock Wit’cha… his cameo in Ghostbusters II along with On Our Own… She Ain’t Worth It with Glenn Medeiros.
Was he still with Whitney? His younger days with New Edition, teaming with Johnny Gill, Ralph Tresvant, Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins, and Ronnie DeVoe. Can You Stand the Rain?… Cool It Now… If It Isn’t Love… Candy Girl…
Was this THE Bobby Brown sitting there, chilling, watching ESPN highlights? Do I approach him and ask for a picture? Do I take a paparazzi shot? Too many thoughts, didn’t act, Bobby got up and left, leaving the chair where Bobby Brown sat.
Teaser for Alien Ninja
One more video is up over at alienninja.tv. This one is a teaser about the upcoming story line (if you can call it that). Just watch the video and you’ll see what I mean.
Although the scenery from Secret Island makes a great location!

This is supposed to be what a whale looked like early in its evolution before the species went to the oceans.

NBA Draft Picks and Kicks
Despite getting paid well to ball in the NBA, the real money lies in endorsements and the recent NBA Draft picks of 2008 aren’t wasting any time. Of the top picks, OJ Mayo was the first to sign, going with Nike. No big surprise there. Is OJ good enough to warrant his own signature line? Air OJ? Air Mail (as in Mayo)?
Now, Derrick Rose, the first overall pick in ’08, continues his affiliation with Adidas.
How about the rest of the top five Draft picks? I see the jokester, Michael Beasley, representing Converse along with Heat teammate Dwyane Wade. Beasley does his own thing so why not?
The fourth and fifth picks, Russell Westbrook and Kevin Love, were both from the Adidas-donned UCLA Bruins. K-Love is probably best to stay with the three stripes since big men just don’t market well with the Swoosh. I don’t know which kicks co. matches guard Russell Westbrook. He could go with a smaller name like Reebok, New Balance, or k1x, but Sonics teammate Kevin Durant might convince Westbrook to say “Just do it!” I can see Westbrook as a Hyperdunk kind of guy.
