Radiohead

Originally called On A Friday, Radiohead is a band that is miles ahead of the rest of the crap released nowadays. Ranked 73 in Rolling Stone's list of greatest artists, Radiohead is made up of five members: frontman Thom Yorke, guitarist Jonny Greenwood, bassist Colin Greenwood (who is the older brother of Jonny), drummer Philip Selway, and other guitarist Ed O'Brien. Radiohead has released eight studio albums, a few of which are considered classics. They are Pablo Honey (1993), The Bends (1995), OK Computer (1997), Kid A (2000), Amnesiac (2001), Hail to the Thief (2003), In Rainbows (2007), and The King of Limbs (2011). While Pablo Honey is not as acclaimed as the earlier albums, it is the album that made the band hit it big, as it carried their hit single, Creep. Other famous songs by the group include Fake Plastic Trees, High and Dry, Paranoid Android, Karma Police, No Surprises, Idioteque, Everything in its Right Place, Pyramid Song, Reckoner, Nude, and (most recently) Lotus Flower.

Radiohead should be the most popular band in the entire world. Seriously.

Microsoft Surface

Quite possibly the coolest thing Microsoft has created since the Xbox 360 in 2005. It is a tablet with an interface like its sister product Windows 8. The coolest feature is the ability to attach a soft keyboard that doubles as a cover, dubbed Touch Cover, while putting the tablet up on a built-in stand. So it's almost a touchscreen laptop.

Microsoft Surface proves that Microsoft can be a little like Apple, sometimes.

Gapgate

An event occurring in October 2010 in which Gap, the clothing retailer, changed its logo, received universal hate on the Internet for it, then subsequently changed it back.

Gapgate was terrible. It's a good thing they changed the logo back.

cardboard box

An amazing device that can easily be made into a variety of things.

Quote from Calvin and Hobbes:

Calvin: "Hey, Hobbes, wanna go time traveling with me? See, I built this time machine." (shows Hobbes a right-side-up cardboard box)

Hobbes: "This looks a lot like your transmogrifier."

Calvin: "To the inattentive layman, yes, but with the transmogrifier, you crawl under the box, whereas in the time machine, you climb in on TOP."

Hobbes: "Ah."

Windows 8

A computer operating system by Microsoft to be released in October 2012. Its layout is similar to that of Windows Phone 7 for the reason that Windows 8 is expected to be used mostly on touch screens and tablets. And even if you don't have either of those, Windows 8 has a desktop mode which looks exactly like that of Windows 7 except there's no Start Button, much to the dismay of Windows fanatics. Windows 8 will be released alongside Windows Phone 8 and Microsoft Surface tablets.

Windows 8 is actually pretty awesome.
