Get all the best buzz on the go with BuzzFeed's new iPhone app, developed by Carrot Creative.
Pet Status is twitter, but for pets. Really. I went ahead and registered my dog, Bob, for the service. Join him. I wonder if Medlar is on there?
Tech Buzz This'll blow your damn mind: Get yer buzzhole on yer iPhone! Mad props to the BF design team and the code magicians at Carrot Creative for whipping up this sparkly gateway to the buzz. Download it now at the iTunes App Store!
Tech Buzz The robot (naturally) wants the kitty. Help him! I'm assuming it's just so he can tenderly pet the kitty, as killer robots are wont to do.
Tech Buzz A simple stripped down game in which you attempt to clear the lines and nodes from the level with as few clicks as possible.
Tech Buzz This is more of an intensely atmospheric interactive cartoon than a game, strictly speaking, but it's got a unique look and sound and is worth a few minutes of your Friday afternoon. It's also a bleak commentary on existence.
Tech Buzz Need a fridge magnet? There's now an app for that. Jailbreak Toys is selling sets of iPhone app magnets for 12.99 USD.
Gadget-friendly jeans feature a hidden memory stick pocket, an iPhone pocket with padding, and a padded crotch (because they're for dudes, obvs). You won't be getting laid, but at least your iPod won't get all scratched up! It's a pretty even trade-off, I'd say.

The Chatroulette map grabs the IP addresses of users, a screenshot, and pinpoints them on the map. I see what you did there, Honolulu, Hawaii. Nice helmet. (Via Laughing Squid)
Tech Buzz Google Maps has introduced bike directions in beta! Just in time for spring, too, which is good of them. How do we get this info out to the lunatics who like to cruise the wrong way down one-way streets like biking is some citywide game of chicken? (Via @rcbth.)
“The Big Apple, just like I pixeled it.” Type in a NYC address or location and find the 8-bit version of the area. [Ed Note: But watch out for Octorocs! (And incredibly nerdy jokes.)]

Amazing iPhone app. Loop it! [Ed Note: Oh, mais que c'est chouette! Super cool!]
A little video for 3D modelers in the pursuit of anatomical realism in their CG testicles. [Ed Note: Technology has come so far. Culture, on the other hand, is still primarily interested in ball sacks. So, anyway, here's the intersection of those trends. So inspiring.]
Here's what Google Chrome had to say about this infamous browser: “I remember one day after work, I saw IE6 walking home. I pulled over and said 'Hey IE6, do you want a ride?' He responded 'Page Cannot Be Displayed' and fell over. Man, that guy was a hoot.” Please pay your respects (or spit on the grave) of this stalwart of internet browsing. Those unable to attend the funeral are asked to send flowers.
Thanks for opening our eyes, The BBC. [Ed Note: So that's who's been putting all those LOLs in the LOLCats. Thank you, ethereal alien saviors!]

A mesmerizing tribute to Apple. [Ed Note: This video is only for people who really love Apple products. Which is everybody, right? Surely it is.]
