by Thomas Houston on December 3, 2009 at 06:45 PM


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.
  • For every great use of tech in film (e.g. 'Minority Report' and 'Children of Men'), there are bound to be clunkers. Gideontech rounds up the top 10 worst portrayals of technology at the movies. [From: Gideontech]
  • In a more positive vein, here's some movie interface design from Mark Coleran, a visual designer who has worked on 'The World is Not Enough,' 'The Bourne Identity,' 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith,' and more. [From: Coleran]
  • Jason Kottke of kottke.org started up a silly #webappcelebs game this afternoon, garnering Bit.ly Houston, Daniel Craigslist, and AIM Judy Dench. Our contribution? Google Lou Reader. [From: Kottke]
  • Our very own Terrence O'Brien went on Russia Today's Alonya Show to discuss the 'RuneScape' thief. [From: YouTube]
