Watercooler All-stars Episode 006 is up!

It’s our sixth episode of Watercooler All-stars – a podcast about obscure, weird and semi-relevant news that will help you build your watercooler status in the office.

Welcome to our most important show ever. On this episode we discussed Octomom’s joint campaign with PETA to prevent “octopets”.

The GOP’s secret plan to win power back through a URL shortener.

Dogism (prejudice against mixed breed dogs) is coming to an end in the AKC.

Shaving tips from Dr. Phil’s barber.

The LOST finale and the

Meels (high heels for men) are apparently back – did they ever really leave?

Dallas still in shock after thief steals $.99 order of chicken nuggets from a Wendy’s.

Warning labels needed on food that could potentially choke.

Phillies fan attacks with vomit.

We also mention several more stories but you will just have to listen to the podcast and then Google them later.

We have been working on the concept for this podcast for months. We hope you like our first beta episode. Please leave your comments.

We hope to cover news, information and insights that are missed by other news and entertainment podcasts.

The show is recorded with minimal pre-show discussion to keep the conversation fresh and unrehearsed.

Google Earth Segway team up to help you see the world at 7mph

THIS WAS AN ATTEMPT AT AN APRIL FOOLS STORY – NOBODY READ IT:

The Google Earth team announced today that a Segway plug-in will be available soon for Google Earth.

Once installed, Google Earth Users will be able to see the world via Segway. There will be two versions of the plug-in. The standard version allows users to see the world in street view at approximately 7mp. A second version of the plug-in will be available via a link on Segway’s website. The enhanced version will cost $19.99 and allow users to see the world in street view at approximately 12mph.

The move is the latest in Segway’s expected series of announcements to bring Segway simulation to game consoles and mobile devices.

“The big comment we always hear about Segway is, I would love to try one of those someday,” one Segway dealer explains, “The Segway plug-in for Google Earth allows this to become a reality.”

Now that Google and Segway have confirmed the leaks about the Segway plug-in, the question is when does the iPhone app come out? Fuzzy pictures plastered all over the tech blogs earlier in the week suggest that the iPhone app will allow you to control the Segway via the internal gyros allowing you to control the Segway by leaning much as you would control a real Segway.
