Have Apple created an iPod with a cassette player inside? Very unlikely 🙂 What you are looking at here is either a hacked up Apple iPod with the innards cut out to allow a cassette to be put inside or a rather cool photoshop experiment. There isn’t much information to be found about this little player, but from what I can find it seems to have originated from about 2 years ago. [Read more…]

How to Board a Train while it’s Moving
August 16, 2008 by 1 Comment
When a train travels, one of the biggest problems is that the train has to stop and start again at each and every stop. This causes problems in two ways. First off, the journey is slowed right down as the train stops for several minutes and then has to wind back up to full speed only having to stop again shortly after. The second problem is the energy used to get a train moving. It is more efficient to let a train run as long as possible with out stopping. An idea that has been invented (which is an amazing idea) is to allow passengers to board with the train moving at full speed. Dangerous? That would be a big YES if passengers were to use the regular doors as it could lead to a tad too many people being hurt. But this fancy new idea makes things look a lot safer while keeping energy usage as low as possible and keeping journey times faster. [Read more…]
