There's a load of great tech news happening out there every day, and, unfortunately, we just can't cover it all. Here are a few of the other noteworthy things we saw today on our never-ending journey through the wild, wild Web.
  • Recreate that classic scene with Mickey Mouse from 'The Sorcerer's Apprentice' in your living room with Broomba, the self-propelled broom (pictured above). [Clusterflock]
  • Unsatisfied with the off-the-shelf home theater media system choices out there? Don't miss Engadget's excellent guide for building your very own Blu-ray and TV tuner-equipped home theater PC for under $1,000 (or under $500). [Engadget]
  • Muji, a Japanese retailer, is back with a gorgeous minimalist shower radio shaped like a shampoo bottle. Turn the "cap" to turn on the tunes, and keep twisting to adjust the volume. [Gadget Lab]
  • All across the U.S., college students (and stressed-out parents) are searching for lodgings for the next school year -- now only weeks away. Cut to the chase by quickly mapping out all those Craigslist listings via HousingMaps. [Geeksugar]
