Paris Hilton jailed for 45 days....
Million Dollar babe Paris Hilton aged 26 is preparing to go to her new home for 45 days.... In Los Angeles' Century Regional Detention Centre, she will be cosy in her 3.7m x 2.4m cell far from her five-star luxury lifestyle with a sink and toilet right next to her bed and an amazing view out of her 150mm window =D
Paris was jailed because she breached her driving ban conditions, but she will be separated from other inmates within the all women prison for her own safety.
She is expected to serve her time starting on June 5th, so she has a little time to soak up some more of her currant millionaire lifestyle before she goes to the box....
Here is a video of her cell.... Nice ey?

Bugatii Veyron - Top speed test!
The Bugatii Veyron is by far my favorite car at the moment, watching it on Top Gear just made it even better, the sound and its 1000 brake horse power engine with 4 superchargers lumped in! This car can reach an impressive 407KPH that's 253MPH or if you like... 113 Meters per second! :O
Check out this video from Top Gear were James puts the Veyron to its limit in this 8 Minute clip.....

MySpace to buy Photobucket for $250 Million!
Social networking website MySpace Inc. is buying top internet photo-sharing service Photobucket.com LLC for $250 million US in cash, according to reports citing "reliable" sources close to the deal Monday.
The digital photo site has been in talks with News Corp.-owned MySpace since the companies ended a dispute in April, according to independent reports by technology news services. Photobucket says it has 41 million registered users and grows by 80,000 members a day.
It had 17.9 million unique monthly visitors in March, according to internet ratings service ComScore Inc., as compared to MySpace's 66.3 million unique monthly visitors in March, according to ComScore.
In April, MySpace stopped blocking Photobucket users' photo slideshows, videos and "remixes" — user-created videos that feature content supplied by a third party such as a movie studio or recording label — from appearing on its members pages, ending their dispute.
MySpace said the slideshows, which used imagery from the new Spider-Man 3 movie, constituted ads that violated its user policy.
Following the dispute, the companies agreed to improve their communication and implement procedures to avoid a similar conflict from arising again.
Reports that MySpace and Photobucket were merging first surfaced on Monday on the Silicon Valley tip site ValleyWag.
By the evening, at least three established technology news services — CNet, PaidContent and TechCrunch — separately reported that they had independently confirmed the merger with sources close to the deal, sources who had requested anonymity.
Photobucket, founded in 2003, had been seeking a buyer since March, when they hired investment bank Lehman Brothers Inc.
According to internet traffic rankings service Hitwise, Photobucket accounted for 73 per cent of MySpace's photo-related traffic in March, and Photobucket received 57 per cent of its traffic from MySpace.
Spokespeople for MySpace and Photobucket could not be immediately reached for comment.

Ear Spiders!!....
This is crazy! I don't think i could sleep again :S
A nine-year-old American boy who was suspicious of a "Rice Krispie" sound in his ear, was found to have a couple of spiders living in there.
What began as a faint popping turned into ear ache for Jesse Courtney from Albany in the state of Oregon.
Jesse's mother, Diane Courtney, said her son insisted he kept hearing a faint popping in his ear - "like Rice Krispies''.
"They were walking on my eardrums,'' Jesse said, according to the Associated Press.
Dr David Irvine said it looked like the boy had something in his ear when he examined him.
When he irrigated the ear, the first spider came out, dead. The other spider took a second dousing before it emerged, still alive. Both were about the size of a pencil eraser.
Jesse has kept the spiders as a souvenir.

3D Desktop Printers....
3D printers have been around in the industry for years, manly within the prototyping and manufacturing industry of aeroplane parts, car parts etc before they go into full production, now a company called DesktopFactory will soon release one for the home user. Prices will be high to start with but as usual they say they will fall over time.
When they are first released they will cost just under $10,000 (£5,000ish) then they could fall to $1000 (£500ish) within 4 years according to DesktopFactory. The materials (consumables) for this type of printer will however i think be expensive....
These 3D printers work by building up layers and dots with a plastic material and hardened with procession heating. Just imagine in a few years you could download a plan off the Internet for use with these 3D Printers and print them out within a few hours depending of course on how complex the object will be =D
The possibilities of this product will be endless, you could even print yourself for example a new phone cover, PC mods... I can also see legal issues regarding certain products being duplicated and then sold, but hey what isn't illegal these days :P
Click the image above to go to DesktopFactory.com and read up on them =D

Wireless NES Controller for the Wii
This is an awesome mod! Convert a NES control pad into a wireless pad for the Nintendo Wii, now reading over the instructions on how to make this bad boy seems a bit of a task to the novice. You will have to have soldering skills and a small bit of knowledge of electronics. The stuff needed can either be bought from the likes of radio-shack or any other electronics supplier and eBay ; )
The cost to make this will be around £25 ($50ish).
Click the image below to see the guide on making that NES pad.... Enjoy =D

The Digg dilemma continues...
Digg have been hit with a dilemma regarding the HD-DVD encryption key being cracked. I have read that this was done months ago and has already been spread throughout the online community, apparently it only works with Linux and not the PC (yet anyways). Kevin Rose owner of Digg was sent a C&D letter regarding the issue to take down any posts and comments that had this code in them... Well he did and the Digg community didnt like it and started a revolt by posting the code as much as possible weather it be as normal text or within songs and pictures.... Since the revolt by the Digg users Keven announced that he will not remove posts by the users (as this is what Digg is, a community driven freedom of speech site) and they will fight as best as they can, they would rather fight the big corporation's....
Here is Kevin Rose's blog post on the matter Diggs Blog
Here is Kevin Rose's blog post on the matter Diggs Blog
Today was an insane day. And as the founder of Digg, I just wanted to post my thoughts…
In building and shaping the site I’ve always tried to stay as hands on as possible. We’ve always given site moderation (digging/burying) power to the community. Occasionally we step in to remove stories that violate our terms of use (eg. linking to pornography, illegal downloads, racial hate sites, etc.). So today was a difficult day for us. We had to decide whether to remove stories containing a single code based on a cease and desist declaration. We had to make a call, and in our desire to avoid a scenario where Digg would be interrupted or shut down, we decided to comply and remove the stories with the code.
But now, after seeing hundreds of stories and reading thousands of comments, you’ve made it clear. You’d rather see Digg go down fighting than bow down to a bigger company. We hear you, and effective immediately we won’t delete stories or comments containing the code and will deal with whatever the consequences might be.
If we lose, then what the hell, at least we died trying.
Digg on,
Kevin
