Going on Google this morning I noticed that they changed their logo to celebrate Tetris’ 25th anniversary and 125 million purchases and downloads. I love it!

Tetris was created on June 6th 1984 by Alexander Pajitnov, a programmer at the Moscow Academy of Sciences who worked on the game in his spare time. Although it was originally released on the PC, Tetris gained popularity on the Nintendo Game Boy where it sold around 35 million copies. Brain scans of Tetris players show the game trains people to use their brains more efficiently. Today Tetris can be downloaded or bought and played on most consoles and mobile devices.

This week is E3 which means the big three (Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony) are all announcing their hardware and software news for the next few months. Sony’s big announcement today was the PSP Go!, the latest version and first total redesign of the PSP hardware. The PSP Go! is not going to replace the PSP right away but that could be something that happens a couple years from now. The most interesting thing about the PSP Go! is that Sony decided to completely ditch any kind of physical media and make the system strictly download only. The PSP Go! is due out October 1, will cost $249 and will have the following features:
- 16GB built-in flash memory
- Slide-out controller
- 3.8″ screen
- Bluetooth
- 50 percent smaller than the original PSP
- 40 percent lighter than the original PSP

Clayton Homes has introduced the iHouse, a customizable pre-built house. Thanks to things like solar panels, thick walls and a rainwater catching system, the iHouse only costs about $1/day to cover all it’s electricity needs. There’s a one or two bedroom version of the home which can cost between $75,000 to $140,000 depending on options and shipping/building of the units. All the materials can be shipped in two large trucks and the house takes a few days to assemble.
More @ Clayton Homes.

I’ve seen some cool looking USB drives out there but this is one of the more detailed and hip looking ones. The incredibly detailed design resembles that of an Akai MPC-2000 drum machine. It’s a bit pricy at $40 for a 4GB stick but it will definitely turn heads at the office. There are currently two version, this and one resembling the E-Mu SP-1200. Pre-order now and they will ship on June 12th.
