| Google Talk Guru answers questions via your IM app Posted: 30 Jun 2011 03:52 PM PDT
Just add guru@googlelabs.com to your GTalk buddies, and you can start firing off questions. Lifehacker suggests that the same types of queries supported by Google SMS will work, though we didn’t have any luck getting a response out of the Guru with phrases like “score detroit red wings” or “sushi R3N 1Y1.” Still, Guru does answer a good variety of questions and it works right within your favorite IM app. It’s well worth adding to your friend list, especially for getting answers on the go on your mobile device of choice.

| Robotic armpit sweats you out of harm’s way, Uncanny Valley just got a lot stinkier Posted: 30 Jun 2011 11:52 AM PDT  London-based designer Kevin Grennan has a particular stance on the yet-to-be-fought Robots vs Humans war — it’ll stink, literally. Mocking a part of our bodies we spackle to stop secretions, this Brit created a robotic armpit that sweats out pheromones so you stay out of danger. As part of his graduate exhibit at the Royal College of Art, our android-averse artiste has three smelly cyborg concepts up for your schematic consideration: there’s the underarm-equipped, bomb-sniffing bot that’ll warn you away with the scent of human fear, and a picker robot that enchants female assembly liners to work harder, better, faster with its manly musk. Sure it all seems harmless, that is until you enter into a trusting relationship with an oxytocin-spritzing surgical automaton. We don’t blame you if any of the above has you locking the Roomba up for the night — that’s exactly Kevin’s point. But there’s no need to panic just yet, a future filled with “but I’m a real boy” robot-complexes is still a ways off.

| Department of Justice probe eyes Sony’s rechargeable battery business Posted: 30 Jun 2011 09:52 AM PDT  After the headache-inducing bout of hacking woes that beset the corporation in recent weeks, a new Department of Justice-led investigation into Sony’s US electronics division may have the company emptying that aspirin bottle. Details of the inquiry are scarce at the moment, but with the company’s cooperation confirmed, all signs lead to an alleged price fixing of its rechargeable battery business. Citing data from a Tokyo-based research firm, a Bloomberg report indicates that a 2010 market surplus had Sony Electronics (amongst others) lowering battery prices at the expense of less financially-cushioned players. The notorious sector of the multinational’s operations has been in the hot seat before — namely, for actual laptop explosions — but this time ’round the judicial maypole, it seems the Japanese giant may have been partaking in some anti-competitive shenanigans. If the DoJ hammer does happen to fall on Sony’s already bowed head, the company could be facing a very expensive slap on the wrist and a fundamental change to its business practices. Luckily for Sony, we happen to believe in a little something called “innocent until proven guilty.” Department of Justice probe eyes Sony’s rechargeable battery business originally appeared on Engadget on Wed, 29 Jun 2011 16:41:00 EDT.

| Mouse Pad that Doubles as a Travel Pouch Posted: 29 Jun 2011 11:52 PM PDT I love multipurpose products, so the Mouse Pad Travel Pouch from Smartfish caught my eye and I thought it might interest all of you as well. The Travel Pouch is a 9? diameter neoprene mouse pad that zips up to form a handy pouch.
