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.
  • Beaker from the Muppets learns about the difficulty of making it big on YouTube with a viral 'Dust in the Wind' cover. [From: Neatorama]
  • This multi-screened Rube Goldberg-esque project captures a digital ball moving seamlessly from an iPod to a TV and laptop and back again. [From: iBall]
  • The New York Times takes a look at Nicholas Felton, a designer who has been publishing annual reports on his life since 2006. The reports are filled with interesting graphics of mundane bits like coffee consumption, every street he's walked on for a year, and even all the plants he killed. [From: NY Times]
