Giant Gundam over Tokyo

Apart from those awesome French people with the Space Princess, London has some pretty dull modern landmarks. The Millenium Wheel. Meh. The Millenium Bridge. Bah. The O2 Dome. Yawn.

Over in Tokyo, however, the Japanese really know how to party. They do things properly. Take this, for instance - the monster Gundam they have assembled over Tokyo, that's as high as a seven story building.

For even more awesome pictures - and video! Yes! - head on over to the Flickr blog.

Meatcards!

The chaps over at Meatcards have a great competition running at the moment. They will create your own, personalised business cards, by burning them out of beef jerky with a laser.

Yes, read it again - it is that cool. They will laser meat to create your business cards. Awesome!

The competition is to submit your own real-life re-enactment of one of three of Frank Frazetta's iconic fantasy art paintings.

Head on over to the competition page at http://www.meatcards.com/challenge/ for the full list of rules, and to see some of the winners that have been chose so far.
